Time to check out the best awareness days for coaches and counsellors this April – and there are plenty of them. A biggie worth flagging is that April is stress awareness month. Make the most of that hashtag this month, especially when stress remains a huge problem for many.
Using awareness days is a great way to boost your brand and get in front of new audiences. The best way to go about it is to:
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 around, use the hashtag when you engage on that day.
Think about any content you have already – blogs, graphics or visuals – that could be re-shared with the relevant awareness day hashtag.
The first step, though, is working out which days fit your business best. I’ve gone through all the awareness days for April 2022 and picked out those that best suit coaches, counsellors and psychotherapists. The days featured have a wellbeing slant or lend themselves to one.
