November Holidays + Content Ideas.
“Autumn Skies and Pumpkin Pies.”
November Holidays and Fun Days to add to your social media content calendar. Some dates are perfect for a promotion or content ideas and they also allow your brand to engage with trending hashtags.
The holidays and fun days chosen are more geared towards the small business - giving you ideas for your content and promotions; all curated for the female entrepreneur in mind, her business and beautiful brand!
Save this list and use when scheduling your content or use as marketing ideas and implement them into one of your advertising campaigns. We all love our social media but a little tip: don’t put all your eggs in one basket. Instagram is extremely saturated these days; it’s not like the good ol’ days where we’d post a pretty picture and get seen by all our followers - a true community vibe. These days we have to think outside the box when it comes to marketing so we also put together unique and creative ideas for advertising your business.
Be sure to also check out the SHOP for social media templates, making content creation that much easier. If you need assistance with curating content for your social media, blog, or managing your marketing campaign be sure to visit the COCOLILY Atelier, our boutique creative agency, and schedule a coffee consult with us!

Launch a Countdown to Black Friday Sale with Daily Deals—from free gifts with purchase to free shipping days.
Create and sell themed gift cards. If you have these available at your shop, you can also include branded gifting to make it easier for your customer.
Collaborate with with other small businesses. You can give cross promote and give discounts on each others newsletters, mentions on social media, share the costs on hosting a pop-up event and run a contest together.
Make connections with your contacts on LinkedIn, share your blog posts and special offers, join and contribute to forums, and share quality content.
If you have a storefront, advertise with your local chamber of commerce. It’s great for networking and getting your business out there in the local community.
Start working on a Holiday email marketing campaign and be sure to include abandoned cart reminders.
Attend local networking events or online such as the Lady Boss Social we have coming up. You can also join online networking groups and take advantage of the marketing you’ll receive from them plus connecting with other businesses.
Consumers love rewards so put together a list of your most loyal customers and send them a VIP discount code. You can do this via email or send a thank you card and show them your appreciation.
Feature a Holiday/Christmas Gift Guide for your shoppers. You can go further by creating categories and tailor gifts to themes, interests and prices. Need help designing your guide? The COCOLILY Atelier can design a stunning magazine layout for your gift guide.
Update your website for the holiday season and decorate your homepage with Christmas or winter graphics.
Run special promotions for Small Business Saturday. Offer discounts on products or services you provide. You can collaborate with other like-minded local businesses to create a unique package that will reach new customers; collectively marketing each other.
Create a seasonal mystery box. This is ideal for slow moving products but also gives your customer a chance to sample other products they may not have purchased otherwise.
Set up a customer referral program. You can offer a discount, a free gift, or other perk for every new customer they refer.
