🗓️ Plan Ahead Like a Pro: Dec Content Ideas for Online Entrepreneurs

Let’s be real — December is hard. Between holidays, travel, and all the end-of-year chaos, most online entrepreneurs either slow way down or disappear altogether.

But here’s the deal: no content = a closed store.

Think about it — when you walk by a store and the lights are off, you assume it’s closed, right? Online works the same way. Sure, your website is open 24/7, but if your last post was over a week ago, your audience starts to wonder… Are they still selling? Are they reliable?

That’s why planning ahead for December matters. Get your content scheduled now so you can actually relax and enjoy the season without ghosting your business.

🎄 December Highlights

Merry christmas & Happy New Year
Make sure you take the time and schedule those two days. Have fun. here are some ideas

• 🎁 do you use gift tags?
• 🎀 Bows or no bows?
• 💡 Colored lights or white lights?
• 🎅 Do you open a gift on Christmas eve?
• 🎉 What are you doing for NYE?

Even when people are busy, they scroll. Give them fun, easy questions to answer between wrapping paper battles.

🧝Elf on the shelf:
Hear me out — it totally connects to your business! If you’ve ever tried keeping up with that mischievous little elf, you know it’s a lot. Help your audience out while still sneaking in your product:
👉 Jewelry folks: Have the elf tangled up in necklaces or “pinned” by earrings.
👉 Clothing people: Elf hiding in folded laundry or making a mess of outfits.
👉 Food creators: Elf baking, decorating, or “eating” your products.

Fun, relatable content and a subtle business plug? Win-win

🗓️ A Few Fun Days to Try:

• Dec 3 – Make a Gift day: Perfect for highlighting gift bundles or DIY sets using your products.
• Dec 5 – Bathtub Party Day: Self-care content alert! Show off bath or relaxation items, or just remind your followers to slow down and soak a bit.
• Dec 12 – Gingerbread House Day: Run a decorating challenge! Have your followers vote and send a small prize to the winner.
• Dec 14 – Haunaka Begins: Even if you don’t celebrate, wish your followers a happy start to the season or share something festive you’ve learned.
• Dec 18 – Bake Cookies day: Hello, food people — this is your moment. Scents, decor, cookie plates — anything goes.
• Dec 27 – Make Snowflakes day: Whether you DIY or buy them, this one’s easy to tie in — “If you don’t have time to cut snowflakes, grab this ready-made one instead!”

And of course, don’t forget the big ones — Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year’s Eve, and more. Even a simple “Did you take your tree down yet?” post on December 28 counts. Showing up = open doors.

Every day has something worth posting about. So sit down today (Nov 20) and plan out five December posts. Schedule them. Then add two more later. Your future self will 100% thank you.
