January Post Ideas for Entrepreneurs
I’m a big fan of batching content for your business. Work smarter, not harder, you know? But planning ahead is difficult during the busy holiday season, especially when you’re a business owner. So here’s 35+ post ideas for the month of January! (including story ideas!!)
I looked up a list of random holidays and chose some that could be used as bouncing points for content creation and post ideas. This is a great list to come back to when you’re planning ahead and have writer’s block.
Tip: I wouldn’t make every single post related to a random holiday, but these can be fun ideas when you need some inspiration!
