August Content Calendar
If you’re an Amazon influencer, a content creator, a vlogger, or if you run an affiliate blog, it’s important to stay ahead of seasonal trends and understand what types of products people are buying each month. Here’s my peek at some content you might want to create for the month of August, and some products that might tie into your content. I have not tried to list all the possible “National Days” listed on the many holidays websites. I mainly was interested in the days that yield product video content creation possibilities.
Here’s my list of suggested content for August events you might want to blog about, products to share affiliate links to on your social media, and things to create shoppable videos and Idea lists on Amazon for.
I heavily relied on The National Day Calendar and the Days of the Year website for research.
