From updating your social media calendar to wading through the myriad of channels, you know that social media can be time-consuming for entrepreneurs.


Yet it’s also one of the best ways to connect with your target audience, increase your traffic, boost sales, and meet your overall marketing goals.


With a monthly social media content calendar, it’s much easier to keep up with the demands of social media marketing.


March Social Media Calendar 2023

With March just around the corner, take a look at our March 2023 social media calendar for small-business owners.


March 1: Share a Smile Day #ShareASmileDay

Share-a-Smile-Day

This one is easy enough and applies to pretty much all entrepreneurs. Share a photo of you and your team with big smiles on your faces, doing something you love to do. Better yet, get out in the community and share some smiles with your favorite local businesses or charities. Take a few photos and let your followers know what you were up to.


March 2: National Read Across America Day #ReadAcrossAmerica #DrSeuss

March 3: National Day of Unplugging (First Friday of March) #NationalDayOfUnplugging
