February 2024 Holidays for your Content Marketing
Planning a content calendar is helpful for several reasons, and it plays a fundamental role in a well-organized and effective content strategy. Not only does it help maintain a consistent posting schedule, planning your content in advance allows you to align your messaging with broader business goals and marketing strategies.
Our favorite February 2024 holiday is Galentine’s Day (February 13), a day to celebrate with your gal pals! There’s also important monthly observations such as Black History Month and American Heart Month, Random Acts of Kindness Week (February 14-20), and National Freedom to Marry Day (February 12).
