November is definitely still autumn, but with Halloween marketing starting earlier every year, your audience may be tired of pumpkins and Fall leaves already.

If your business is local, take cues from your weather. The northern and midwest states have probably raked their last leaf and are anticipating snowfall already.

Does one of the month-long holidays below resonate with your business and audience?

Plan a promotion for the month of November that might include blog posts, sales, social media posts, contests and more. Then I’ll explain how you might use one of them in detail!

One of the most popular and well-loved themes for November is a month of gratitude. And it’s sure to get your followers engaged, too!

Be sure to show appreciation for customers, clients, followers and subscribers throughout the month. If you work with businesses, they’d definitely appreciate a shoutout on social media.

But you might want to take it farther!

Use these gratitude quotes to create branded images you can share through the month, perhaps one each #ThankfulThursday.

Inspirational graphics rock Facebook: Gratitude is the best attitude.

You might even want to get your followers involved by creating a “30 Days of Gratitude” challenge.

Positively Present offers a photo prompt per day as Instagram post ideas, and follows through with an illustration of her own each day.

Here’s an example of her initial “prompt” post. Her followers will save this to refer to through November, which sends positive signals to the IG algorithm. This image is followed by one of her simple yet delightful daily sketches.

Or you could run a contest for your customers!

Ask them to submit a video or photo of themself using or recommending your product, with permission for you to use it on your website or social media platforms.

Be sure to offer a discount or freebie to all who participate, and a prize for the best submission, if you like.

It’s truly a win-win, as customers get good vibes from supporting you plus a goodie, and you get loads of free content, which you can repost as fantastic social proof.

Which November Holidays for Your Business?

There are truly holidays for every business and personality. Some days have more than 10 to choose from!

I love social media holidays and am compiling huge lists for each month.

But just knowing the holidays doesn’t mean you’ll:

  • Remember which happens when.
  • Know how to use them in your marketing.
  • Or have time to come up with eye-catching images and engaging captions to go with them.

That’s why there’s Your Social Plan!

Your Social Plan is a daily posting plan that combines beautiful, done-for-you content with powerful business-building prompts so you’ll never wonder what to post again.

Each day your business benefits from a combination of 3 posts:

M – Motivational / Inspirational
V – Visibility Boosting
