1-29: Vision Awareness,
Cherry, American Heart, Black History, Hot Breakfast,
Weddings, Plant Seeds Of Greatness and Children’s Dental
Health Month. Another huge smorgasbord of ideas.
1-7: Personal And Business Coaching Week. Emphasizing
the importance on either or both. Most companies can
start a program if desired.
6: Pay A Compliment Day. To your co-workers, your
employees, your clients. And a logoed product can help
underline its sincerity.
8: Jules Verne: Birthday. Highly imaginative French
writer whose books not only
provided the genesis for science fiction, but also
predicted several things
that would come true almost a century later –
nuclear-powered subs, for instance. Cool tie-in for
bookstores, schools, libraries, video stores, etc.
11: Satisfied Staying Single Day. Recognizing those who
like being unmarried. Great link-in for dating services,
nightclubs, restaurants (singles nights), supermarkets
(single-portion foods, singles events), food processors,
department stores, etc.
13: Get A Different Name Day. Whether you hate your name
or just want a change, you can choose another one today
for the next 24 hours. Interesting idea for a company as
well as individuals.
16-23: Nostalgia Week. The best part is, the concept of
nostalgia is so multigenerational, it can be observed in
any number of ways. Many nostalgic products can be
imprinted as well.
23: Woolworths Opens. The very first chain store, opened
today, 1879, in Utica, NY. Consider how it changed
business forever.
24: Gregorian Calendar Anniversary. The most widely used
calendar in the world was created today, 1582. Good
logoed calendar opportunity.
26: Marian Anderson: Birthday. Considered one of the
finest operatic contraltos ever, she also broke several
racial barriers. Radio stations, music stores, record
companies, libraries, concert venues, orchestras, arts
foundations, etc., can all take part.
28: Floral Design Day. It’s not just flowers in a vase,
but a real art form.
