Right now, the idea of planning even a month ahead seems risky. We have just entered the third year of a global health crisis that has upended almost every aspect of life, including our professional endeavors. Still, keeping some key dates in mind is better than nothing, and that’s why we recommend checking out Twitter’s 2022 marketing calendar.
As always, the annual calendar includes larger, well-known holidays (Christmas, Thanksgiving), awareness months (like Breast Cancer Awareness in October), and Hollywood events (SAG Awards, Met Gala). In between are lesser known but equally important dates like Mental Health Awareness Month (May) and – for creators – World Emoji Day (July 17).
There are also calendars by region and an overall global calendar. For content creators, this is a free resource that can be leveraged to plan future content and/or update permanent website elements you’ve already written. The same can be done for social media content.
