Looking for a list of social media holidays for real estate agents? Keep reading!

Posting on your real estate social media accounts is one of the best ways to connect with your community! Not sure what to post? We get it. Creating a social media marketing calendar takes time. But when done right, Realtors® are able to provide insightful information and value, while also building relationships (which eventually turns into more leads). You just have to know what to post (and when)! That’s where we come in with helpful resources for agents.

When creating your real estate marketing calendar for the month, you may be thinking about posting all your real estate open houses or new listings. And there’s definitely a strategy for that (and one that we teach in the Community Influencer® Academy).

But the best place to start planning your social media content is by creating a list of the social media holidays for the year. These holidays are perfect for real estate agents looking for a way to increase engagement on their platforms, while also generating more leads and sales.

When thinking about which holidays to post on your social media, it doesn’t just have to be the major holidays. Of course you’ll want to post on holidays like Christmas, Memorial Day and Thanksgiving. But some of the biggest engagement you’ll see will come on the minor holidays. On days that you probably haven’t even thought about posting on. Days like National Pet Day, National Donut Day, National Picnic Day and yes, even National Selfie Day (who knew there was such a thing?!).

You may be thinking… why should posting real estate holidays on my social media even be a thing? The truth is, it’s truly the perfect way to connect with your community. Because on National Hamburger Day you can not only get additional engagement by using hashtags like #nationalhamburgerday, but you can also share the best places to get hamburgers in your city.

And this is how you’ll increase your social media engagement, while also providing so much value to your community. Who doesn’t want to go grab the best burger in town on National Hamburger Day?! And thanks to you, your followers now have a list of your favorite places!

Not only that, but just think about the connection you’re also making with those local businesses in your community. Chances are, if they see your social media holiday post, they will be re-sharing that post on their own social media account. Which means your post is getting into the eyes of more and more people in your community. And that my friend means more real estate leads for you!

To help you get started, we’ve created this monthly real estate holidays and marketing calendar with ideas for each month to help you plan your social media content. Think about it like a social media cheat sheet… just for real estate agents like you! All you have to do is use this list of social media holidays to plan your content. Make fun posts that provide valuable information to your community. And engage with your followers. It’s that easy!
