Need June marketing ideas?
It’s summertime, and the livin’ is easy!
While summer technically starts on the solstice (June 21 in 2023), summer’s kickoff is popularly considered to be U.S. Memorial Day (May 29 this year).
Kids are getting ready for school to end, or are celebrating that it has already! Adults are planning road trips and other travel.
If your audience is in the Northern Hemisphere, use these themes in your marketing efforts.
June also offers gift opportunities: for dads, grads, and teachers. Do you sell giftables appropriate for one or more of these groups? Be sure to let your audience know!
Like May, it’s another big month for the red, white, and blue. And don’t forget camping, barbecues, and outdoor living.
If none of this resonates with your business, there are lots more ideas to choose from! You can even get them as ready-made content, which you’ll hear more about further down.

I love social media holidays and have compiled huge lists of hundreds for each month.

Hi Louise! Lovely info.
June 7 mentions Prince’s 50th birth anniversary. Probably meant 58, right? (Devoted Prince fan!)
