❂ Wednesday, August 1, 2018 Army Day
Hot topics: treatment of military personnel, national defense construction, and Sino-US trade relations.
How to play: Development history H5, like the soldiers H5, my soldier photos H5, celebrate the soldiers’ birthdays, and love and support the army posters.

Thoughts: This festival is highly military and political. If the attributes of new media are more closely related to the attributes of this type of festival, you can use pictures, H5, posters, Weibo, Moments , videos, etc. to follow hot topics. If it's not particularly relevant, it's okay not to pursue it.

Case: China Education Daily used the article “August 1st is coming, the teacher version of the military parade, teachers of various subjects show off their domineering skills!” Dedicated to teachers all over the world! 》took advantage of the hot topic.

Hot topics: boyfriend, girlfriend, gifts, blind date, men’s career status, and desire to survive.

How to play: Boyfriend answer sheet, weird boys, my boyfriend H5, event promotions, photo wall, complaints or interesting topics.

Idea: Men’s Day is a hot topic that is most suitable for discount promotions of products, which can be carried out through posters, pictures, texts, live broadcasts , etc. At the same time, you can also use Weibo topics, group complaints, H5, short videos , etc. to gain traffic and exposure.

Case: Tmall Mall made graphic posters based on the hot topic of Men’s Day to attract traffic for marketing activities .

❂ Tuesday, August 7, 2018, Beginning of Autumn

Hot topics: weather, diet, health, traditional culture, and family.

How to play: promotional discounts, videos, pictures, interesting stories, and welfare distribution.

Idea: After the beginning of autumn, the heat goes away and the cool comes. You can talk about the changes in the weather in combination with people’s diet and health. You can also use pictures, texts, posters, etc. to carry out promotional activities for product promotions and discounts. At the same time, as a traditional solar term, you can also use Weibo topics, videos, etc. to make a series of cuts into culture and family affection.

Case: The affection between parents and children is conveyed through the weather changes around the beginning of autumn, shot into a video and promoted, which is very contagious.

❂ Wednesday, August 8, 2018 National Fitness Day

❂ Monday, August 13, 2018 International Left-Handers Day
Hot topics: genius, IQ, artificial intelligence .

How to play: This is a very niche hotspot. Niche areas also have their own ways of playing, and you can create topics, such as interesting stories about left-handed people, or even make a small game that can only be played with the left hand.

❂ Tuesday, August 14, 2018 Green Day
Hot topics: green travel, sharing economy , environmental protection, and youth environmentalism.

How to play: discounts and promotions, tree-planting games, green travel, and love confessions.

Idea: This topic can be approached from the perspective of green environmental protection, and can be combined with the Internet sharing economy and environmentalism. The forms can be videos, pictures, posters, H5 mini games, etc.

How to play: Marriage test, H5 of your significant other’s appearance, game to find a partner in your circle of friends, discounts and promotions, unforgettable dates, embarrassing blind date stories, couple photos, kissing contest.

Idea: Chinese Valentine’s Day is a big hot topic, and many brands will seize this hot topic. Therefore, how to stand out from the crowd and successfully market your own products and brands is a difficult problem. No matter what form it is, H5 or pictures and texts, content is the core.

Case: For example, McDonald’s is very good at combining holiday hotspots and product marketing in content marketing . During the Chinese Valentine's Day, the main products are cleverly implanted with the help of various classic Chinese love themes.

❂ Wednesday, August 22, 2018 ***’s birthday
Hot topics: reform and opening up, great leader, the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, national economic development, special economic zones, and market economy.

How to play: H5 comparing the past and present, testing your understanding of ***, posters, and graphic comparisons.

Thoughts: This is a very mainstream hot topic. It is not easy for many public accounts in vertical subcategories to take advantage of this hot topic. It is recommended not to take advantage of it (if you fail to take advantage of the hot topic well, you will also attract negative attention). However, many new consulting media can make use of this hot topic. They can use posters to write blessings and remembrances, use videos, pictures and texts to showcase Grandpa ***’s political achievements, and even use H5 to let users share the changes in themselves brought about by reform and opening up.

❂ Wednesday, August 25, 2018, Ghost Festival
Hot topics: ancestor worship, Ghost Festival, traditional culture, supernatural, and river lantern blessings.

How to play: Inventory of supernatural events, horror movie recommendations, event promotions, posters and texts.

Idea: The Ghost Festival is less famous and less popular, so it is recommended to use posters, pictures and texts, or topics.

Case: For example, using technology to transform pictures of cultural relics in the Forbidden City is very creative and eye-catching.

Finally, I want to say

This marketing calendar is not perfect

After all, the new media industry

People are walking on the road, and hot spots are coming from the sky

Whether you can catch it or not depends on your hand speed

So everyone still needs

Keep an eye on all directions
