For November, we tend to only think of Thanksgiving and Black Friday for obvious reasons. Yet, with even only 30 days, November is full of observances and celebrations that give you content ideas and inspiration for activities. Below is a select listing of November observances with some having an entrepreneurial or socially-conscious focus.
Do you need help with planning for the new year? November is a great month for planning just before the holiday rush. Time is running out to plan for the holiday season, so check out our current courses, services, and printable planners.
