To steadily drive engagement and conversions on your website, consistency is key when it comes to your marketing. Planning ahead is one of the best ways to achieve this, before the day to day running of your business means you have to push marketing to the bottom of your list.
But where to begin? Planning months of social media content, emails and ads can feel overwhelming, but one of the best places to start is with the important events and dates that happen every year.
These can be everything from major sales events like Christmas and Mother’s Day, to fun or notable occasions that work well for your business, like national days or event weeks/months.
We’ve put together some important dates coming up in 2023 to help you get started when it comes to planning your marketing this year, so you can have the best year yet!
