Start the new year as you mean to go on by planning your social media by taking note of these awareness days for coaches.
Using awareness days is a great way to boost your brand and get in front of new audiences. Plan ahead – when you’re scheduling your content, include relevant hashtags on posts going out on awareness days. Make a note in your diary of the days that will resonate most with your potential clients. Then, when it rolls round, use the hashtag when you engage on that day.
Do you have any created content that could be re-shared with the hashtag? Do it!
The first step, though, is working out which days fit your business best. I’ve gone through all the awareness days for January 2021 and picked out those that best suit coaches and psychotherapists. The days featured have a wellbeing slant or lend themselves to one, such as Bubble Bath Day linking to self-care. Or they provide an opportunity for you to promote your business, e.g. Show and Tell At Work Day.
