Global holidays
To kick things off, we're starting with a look at global holidays. Each channel has a limited number of markets that can support content:
Facebook: Global in these languages so as to include fans in any country where these languages are spoken: EN, ES-ES, PT-BR, DE, HU, PL, HU, EL, ID, FR
Twitter: EN, ES-ES, PT-BR
Snippet: by these countries: EN-US, DE, FR, RU, ES, ID
The user engagement team is looking to create seasonal, localized content around relevant holidays and celebrations. We're looking for moments in time that are:
- fun and celebratory,
- not controversial or potentially offensive,
- secular in nature OR are broadly recognized,
- opportunities to delight our users, and
- make for good content, visual and written.
Let's start hacking
We've created a very initial start point with a list of holidays organized regionally.
Here's what we need:
Review the list. Navigate to the regional tab of your locale. They are
- U.S. Holiday Hacking Sheet
- Central America Holiday Hacking Sheet > Priority countries are: Costa Rica, Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Panama
- Europe Holiday Hacking Sheet > Priority countries are: France, Hungary, Poland, Greece, Germany, Russia, Czech Republic, Italy, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom
- Asia holiday hacking sheet > Priority countries are: Indonesia, India, Bangladesh, Japan, Philippines
- South America Hacking Sheet > Priority countries are: Brazil, Colombia, Chile, Peru, Uruguay, Venezuela, Argentina
Strike out any rows that should be eliminated. This list was a download, and it clearly contains many holidays that should be cut. Have at it!
Add holidays that are relevant for your locale. TIP: Look at the other tabs for ideas.
Add more details. We'd like to understand why the holiday is relevant. What would you recommend we say about it? What would be a good visual?
