Promotions Planner: Sweets & Sustainability
Start presenting ideas to clients for campaigns centered on November observances.
Look ahead to events in late fall to help clients promote their goods and services. Consider stress awareness and management, cultural tourism, sweet baked treats and critical sustainable practices, all of which are celebrated in November.
November 2/International Stress Awareness Day
Established in 1998 by the International Stress Management Association, this day is set aside to raise awareness to the causes of stress, how it exacerbates health issues, and ways to mitigate it. The observance is an ideal time for wellness providers to promote their services.
PITCH: Encourage doctors/medical offices to distribute branded brochures on the nature of stress and how to cope. Present relaxation kits to spas.

PITCH: Support local organizations participating in events by presenting items like notepads made with recycled paper and magnets, which can provide information for local recycling centers.
