As the days get longer and the temperature rises, now is the perfect time to feed into the excitement of attending more outdoor events and travelling for Spring Break! Whether your fans are on a staycation or vacation, engage them with these interactive campaign ideas for March.

March 8th: International Women's Day

International Women’s Day recognizes the achievements of women and raises awareness about gender equality. It’s a great time to recognize the steps that your brand has taken to foster inclusivity and it’s important to remain authentic in your messaging, to leave fans feeling empowered and united.

Campaign Bundle

An engagement hub centered around equality and women's issues - whether you're promoting community-based programs for young female athletes, or supporting a particular charity, a campaign bundle allows multiple routes for raising awareness and showing support. This campaign type is a great way to make a genuine impact, as seen below by the Perth Wildcats supporting a breast cancer charity.
