Plan your content calendar and auto-post to Skool, Circle, or Mighty Networks
Holiday posts tap into shared experiences and cultural celebrations, which naturally foster a sense of community. When members see their traditions and special occasions recognized, they feel valued and more likely to participate. Print on demand communities are especially well-suited for these posts, as holidays often inspire custom product ideas, gifting moments, and creativity.
Inviting members to share their own stories or traditions creates a two-way conversation instead of a one-sided announcement. This not only increases engagement but also helps community managers learn more about their audience's background, preferences, and needs. Celebrating together builds rapport and trust, encouraging members to return and participate more often.

Choose a template that matches the holiday or occasion you wish to highlight. Personalize the template as needed, especially when referencing specific dates or cultural details. Post it at the right time—ideally a few days before or on the holiday—to maximize relevance. Encourage replies by responding to members who share and keeping the conversation going. For global audiences, acknowledge that not everyone may celebrate the same way, and invite a broad range of traditions.
For all platforms, keep posts concise and visually appealing. Use relevant hashtags, images, or short videos where appropriate. On platforms with Stories or temporary posts, use polls or question stickers to boost interaction. Always monitor for respectful discussion, especially around sensitive holidays.
Encourage members to share photos or stories of their top-selling holiday designs using customizable templates. Prompt them to discuss what made their design successful—such as trending graphics, product type (e.g., mugs, ornaments, hoodies), or unique holiday-themed personalization. This sparks discussion around design strategies and seasonal demand.
Use holiday post templates to highlight critical order cutoff dates and ask members to share their strategies for managing customer expectations regarding print and shipping timelines.

Create template-based posts that invite members to share their most common print file mistakes (such as incorrect DPI, color profiles, or template sizing) when prepping for holiday sales. Encourage advice-sharing threads where experienced sellers offer troubleshooting steps specific to popular POD platforms like Printful or Printify.
Design posts that prompt members to showcase their unique holiday niches or discuss which motifs and product categories are trending in their target markets.

Leverage community posts around common holiday fulfillment woes by inviting members to share recent experiences with inventory shortages or ship-by date changes from their POD partners.

Yes, consider creating platform-specific prompts—such as Etsy’s emphasis on gift wrapping and personalized messages, Shopify’s use of upsells or bundling in holiday promotions, and Redbubble’s trending collections.
