🗓️ Plan Ahead Like a Pro: Jan Content Ideas for Online Entrepreneurs
I swear January sneaks in. Like, you know it’s coming, but that week between Christmas and NYE is FAST. Then boom — you’re in January.
But if you plan ahead and schedule that content now, your future self will totally thank you.
🌟 January Highlights
New Year ✨ New You 💪 Resolutions 📝 Cleaning 🧽
These are the big ones in January. Let’s break it down by your biz type 👇
🍳 Food People
Recipes are huge right now! Everyone’s feeling that “I ate too much over the holidays” vibe. Try sharing leftover ideas, lighter versions of comfort foods, or easy swaps to make favorites healthier.
Had a top seller over the holidays? Highlight how to reuse or repurpose it.
💍 Jewelry People
Help followers style the jewelry they got as gifts! Or talk about storage and care — how to keep things shiny and tangle-free.
🧺 Cleaning & Organizing People
Dude, this is your Super Bowl season. Everyone’s decluttering, reorganizing, and packing up Christmas. Show easy storage hacks or quick “put away the holiday chaos” tips.
🕯️ Scent People
Holiday scents are fading out — people are craving fresh. Highlight “new year, new start” scents or calming blends to reset the home energy.
💄 Makeup & Skincare People
Perfect time for a “back to basics” reset. Encourage followers to check expiration dates, clean their brushes, and simplify routines. Bonus: reintroduce yourself to any new followers who joined over the holidays!
If you take a second and think about what you are doing in YOUR life in january, it will help you find content.
🗓️ A Few Fun Days to Try:
- Jan 4 – National Spaghetti day: food people show up. But also, cleaning people, help us clean that red spaghetti sauce stain out of our containers
- Jan 8 – Bubble Bath Day: Self-care content alert! Show off bath or relaxation items, or just remind your followers to slow down and soak a bit.
- Jan 13 – Make Your Dreams Come True Day: Are you in a business that you want to grow your team…share your story. Not in that business? No biggie, you are doing something you love, share your dreams. Almost a thank your followers type vibe
- Jan 17 – Ditch Your Resolution day: Great day to just ask, did they make a resolution, are they still rolling with it? Did they ditch it. This is a good engagement day.
- Jan 24 – Compliment day: Compliment your followers, thank your followers or go a different route…show items you wouldn’t think that go together do…2 foods, 2 colors, mixed metals, blending scents.
Almost any day regardless of the “theme” can be used for any business. Use this to create your content. Then as you find other fun stuff, rearrange things, move things. To have a bank of content you just sort of move around as filler contnet around these theme days is the goal.
Every day has something worth posting about. So sit down today (Dec 20) and plan out five January posts. Schedule them. Then add two more later. Your future self will 100% thank you.
