Be able to get ahead by knowing what trending days are coming up. Well, help is at hand you can with a great tool that will do all that for you!
Fail to plan and plan to fail
The saying “Fail to plan and plan to fail” is quite true. But don’t worry I have something that might just help you to save time planning social media posts and get ahead with them. I bet you like the sound of that. There is a handy free tool that I know you will enjoy using to plan out your content and get ideas for promotions. This tool is “Days Of The Year” and it’s great fun too! I always recommend to my clients to plan ahead with at least three months on their content calendars. When you arrive on the website there is a calendar on the right top corner of the website and you can select the day you want to then you will see in front of you the day with a selection of interesting, trending and fun events to choose from.
So for example August, September and October. This will save time and with the help of “Days of The Year” you will be able to do this with ease. Here is a selection for the days in August from the 1st to 31st (but there are much more to choose from):

If you would like the idea of listening to a show where they talk about social media for business simply then why not tune into the radio show called “Let’s Get Social” on Dublin South FM every Friday 2pm (GMT time), which I host with the amazing social media strategist Phillip Twyford (aka “The Curly Marketer“), who even throws in the odd terrible social media joke (and yes he does keep trying!).
