Wake up and smell the school supplies! It’s that time of year again. Welcome to the August 2024 social media calendar.
A whopping 78 million students will sling on their backpacks and return to school this fall. If you haven’t stocked up on supplies by August, you may be in the minority. 55 percent of back-to-school shopping happens in July.
It may still feel like summer, but it’s not too early to get your sweaters and social media strategy ready. Fall is just around the corner. That means your summer campaigns are likely coming to a close. As we ramp up for a busy holiday season, it’s a great time to run giveaway and contest campaigns. Encourage participants to post their own content showcasing your brand for more contest entries, and let the UGC roll in!
You may want to lean into feel-good content. Themes of kindness and friendship will be in the air as it is Peace Month. Although, it’s also International Pirate Month. What arrgghh you going to do? 🏴☠️
