Your Free 2019 eCommerce Sales and Marketing Calendar

Planning your marketing schedule for the year is such a key part of creating winning campaigns for any business. Whether you are in retail or commercial based, a marketing and sales calendar will help you brainstorm ideas and build targeted campaigns in advance.

By building a personalised experience for your customers through tailored campaigns around calendar events, product launches or sales periods, you are building brand awareness, generating leads and helping to increase sales for your business.

So let’s get organised! Start by mapping out dates that offer opportunities for promotional material and campaigns. Check for key industry dates. Don’t forget to add any company specific dates such as product launches and special sales periods.

With your calendar events all sketched out, you can now plot the campaigns you want to run around these calendar events.

The best part of getting organised up front is that the calendar can be recycled year after year and get better each time.

So here is our Marketing and Sales Calendar guide below and a super handy Infographic to get you started!
