I LOVE OCTOBER!
First of all, it’s my birthday month. The anniversary of my birth is the 29th day of October. I don’t have month long celebrations. Rather, I choose to be more reflective about my life and business.
I love the change in seasons – the brisk cool mornings, the bright sunshine. I love to pull out my sweaters and to begin dressing in layers. You can be really fashionable in October. Where I live, there can be four seasons in one day.
October marks the beginning of Q4. It’s the last quarter of the year and can be the most lucrative for most businesses.
If you need help getting ready for holiday sales, join our online masterclass that you can take at any time called Path to Profit.
October is a great month for planning. So, now is the time to set your goals for the year end and the new year. Join our monthly Goal Planning Workshop for only $22.
Are you stumped for content and inspiration? Then take a look at the following October calendar. You can create lots of content based on the many observances in October.
Celebrate, commemorate, and be inspired.
HAPPY OCTOBER! ~ KGW
