And there we have it! What feels like the longest month of the calendar year is officially over and we can now start reviewing February social media holidays!
Christmas seems like it happened a bloody long time ago and we’re all planning where we’re going on holiday BUT you still need to plan social media content for the next few months!
These content ideas will help you post about something relevant whilst linking it to your business or target audience.
We aim to focus purely on UK based social media holidays – as their American counterparts sometimes happen at another time of year. However, if we have made an error then please do pop us a message.
