Promotions Planner: Spring Has Sprung

Start presenting ideas to clients for campaigns centered on March observances.

With spring on the horizon, March presents a multitude of opportunities to recognize employees and the world around us. Consider both impactful observances like International Women’s Day and fun celebrations like National Cocktail Day when approaching clients this month to set up campaigns for the spring season.

March 3: World Wildlife Day

World Wildlife Day is an international event sponsored by the United Nations to celebrate the contributions of wild animals and plants to the ecosystem. With sustainability of growing importance in the industry, it’s an impactful day to support.

PITCH: Suggest that zoos, conservation organizations or even universities with animal mascots celebrate the natural world with custom stuffed toys to give away or sell at a special event.

March 7: Global Day of Unplugging

Celebrated on the first Saturday of March every year, this observance is focused on ending loneliness while pushing people to step away from their screens in favor of in-person activities and interactions. Stock tech-free gatherings with promo to commemorate the occasion.

PITCH: Encourage clients to host an afternoon of “unplugging” at the office, stocked with custom giant board games or cornhole boards to boost employee well-being with a screen-time break.

March 24: National Cocktail Day

The founder of National Cocktail Day just wanted an excuse to have fun celebrating fun drinks – and recognizing this observance presents a multitude of opportunities to do just that.

PITCH: Mail employees cocktail – or mocktail – kits for an end-of-Q1 celebration. Or suggest bars and restaurants offer a drink discount with the purchase of a branded glass in honor of the celebration.
