As the summer fades and the crisp autumn air begins to settle in, September presents a perfect opportunity to refresh your social media strategy. Whether you're a seasoned marketer or just starting to build your online presence, having a content calendar can help you stay organized and ensure your posts are timely and relevant.


Key Themes for September

Don't make the mistake of picking the same generic theme for your content that everyone else online is using. September is known for many things so be sure to highlight the one that will resonate most with your customer.





Here are some ideas:


  • Back to School: This theme dominates September as students and teachers gear up for a new academic year. It's an excellent time for businesses to offer promotions or for educators to share tips and resources.

  • Labor Day: While Labor Day honors the contributions of workers, it is also associated with the end of summer and can also include time with family, barbeques and soaking the last moments out on the lake.

  • Self-Improvement Month: September is recognized as Self-Improvement Month, making it a great time to share content related to personal growth, productivity tips, and wellness.


September 2024 Unique Content Ideas

When it comes to daily content, try to do things a little differently this September. Here are some ideas to get you started.


  • September 1 - Tofu Day: If you have a food-focused audience, try celebrating the versatility of tofu by sharing your favorite recipes or encouraging your audience to try plant-based meals. Discuss some of the benefits associated with reducing meat intake.

  • September 2 - World Beard Day: November isn't the only month devoted to celebrating facial hair. Invite your followers to showcase their beards... people love showing off beards. You can even run a contest for the best or most creative beard styles.

  • September 5 - International Day of Charity: Use this day to highlight the importance of giving back. Encourage your audience to support local charities or share stories of impactful charitable work. Generosity is appreciated in a wide range of audiences.

  • September 8 - International Literacy Day: Raise awareness about the importance of literacy. If you're in education, this could be a great day to share reading resources or book recommendations. Even if you're not, find some books that those in your industry might enjoy and support a local bookstore.

  • September 16 - Oktoberfest Begins: Kick off Oktoberfest with themed content, such as sharing fun facts about the festival or offering special deals. Everyone loves Oktoberfest vibes.

  • September 21 - International Day of Peace: Promote peace and unity by sharing inspiring quotes or organizing a virtual event that brings people together. Share content from people promoting things that you and your audience care about.

  • September 22 - Car Free Day: Encourage your audience to forego their favorite method of transportation in favor of walking, cycling, or using public transit. This is also a great opportunity to open up the discussion sustainability on your platforms.

  • September 27 - World Tourism Day: Celebrate the impact of tourism by sharing travel tips, destination guides, or personal travel stories. While this may not align with your business, sharing stories is a great way for you to connect with your audience on a personal level. Ask them about their favorite trips and get travel advice from your followers.

  • September 29 - World Heart Day: Focus on heart health by sharing tips on maintaining a healthy lifestyle or promoting activities that are good for the heart. Promote it in the workplace and share your efforts on your social media.
