These are just a few examples from today’s National Fitness Day, and of course there’s a handful of these days now happening every day on social media.
It’s always useful to look at whether your brand aligns with the theme or day, and if not… it still may be relevant if your audience would usually be talking about it. But don’t shoehorn in if totally off-brand and irrelevant.
What do you think of the examples? Did you spot any golden social shares? Let me know in the comments below…
