Anyone working in e-commerce \u2013 as a marketing professional, consultant, or online shop operator \u2013 must be aware of key dates throughout the year. There are obvious ones that are in\u00a0 everyone\u2019s repertory, and then there are more obscure ones that are a lot more fun because not as many campaigns are run on the back of these. Let\u2019s have a look at July and find out where we can have a little fun!<\/p>\n

Important days in July for great marketing campaigns<\/h2>\n

July is International Watercolor Month<\/strong> \u2013 what an amazing opportunity to create memorable adverts and campaigns that will capture the hearts and imagination of art lovers, tattoo lovers, and anyone dabbling in that medium at home. Create a competition for your customers to submit their own art and promote engagement by polling the winner(s).<\/p>\n

Did you know that July 1st<\/sup> is International Joke Day<\/strong>? A perfect opportunity to get smirks, giggles, and grins going! How about asking your customers to submit short video clips of them telling their favorite joke to be featured on your social media?<\/p>\n

July 2nd\u00a0is World UFO Day\u2026<\/strong> \u201cabduct\u201d your customers with some UFO-themed commercials or adverts, and market your \u201cout of this world\u201d products accordingly. Continue the theme with ET-oriented social media campaigns, etc.<\/p>\n

July 4th<\/sup> is \u2013 of course \u2013 Independence Day in the US<\/strong>. Let\u2019s help our cousins across the water celebrate their big day with blue, white, and red-themed campaigns, and create a firework of discounts or promotions across all your channels.<\/p>\n

Or how about celebrating World Chocolate Day on July 7th<\/sup><\/strong>? A perfect opportunity for those marketing the sweet stuff in all its disguises! And you don\u2019t even have to be directly involved with anything chocolaty to create mouth-watering adverts and campaigns to get your products seen\u2026 after all: who can resist a sweet deal?<\/p>\n

World Emoji Day is on July 17th<\/sup><\/strong>. We can\u2019t imagine a world without these emotive and fun little icons anymore \u2013 can you? Emojis have changed the way we communicate online and have become somewhat of a language in their own right. New emojis are added almost daily to further nuance how we express ourselves and our emotions.<\/p>\n

The world has been celebrating the International Day of Friendship (July 30th<\/sup>)<\/strong> since 2011, when it was first introduced by the United Nations. The point of this day is to remind each other about the universal necessity for safety, harmony, and peace in a world with never-ending challenges and struggles. Celebrate this day by promoting\u00a0personalized gifts, and remind your friends, partners, and customers how special they are!<\/p>\n

But let\u2019s not forget that not everyone is full of campaign and marketing ideas all the time. That\u2019s where international e-commerce events come to the fore. Here are a few you might consider attending.<\/p>\n
