As we kick off the summer season, we’ll explore two significant events: Black Music Month and Pride Month.
Celebrate the contributions of African Americans to the music industry and learn how to show support for the LGBTQ community through email rebranding.
Despite being a slower month for e-commerce, we’ll provide tips to nurture existing customers and attract new ones. Embrace the summer vibes, diversity, and healthier living in our June Newsletter. Get ready for an exciting journey ahead!
June Month Theme Content Ideas
In this section, we will cover June Newsletter ideas that are not tied specifically to any day, giving you the flexibility to plan and send out your newsletter at any time throughout the month of June.
First Official Month of Summer
Very exciting because it’s the first official month of summer. Much like what we discussed in May, make sure that you are changing your look and feel of your emails, maybe even your website too, in order to fit that summer mood. People get really hyped with the summer.
Now that events are starting to pop up a little more and more, people are getting excited, looking forward to being outside, spending some time with loved ones that maybe they haven’t seen over the course of the last year. So join the fun and don’t be a total bore when it comes to your emails.
So as always, when you do get to this calendar, you have the actual calendar itself, which we’ve given a little more of a Flowium facelift. And in case you couldn’t tell, and then you also have the info down here. So we have that color coding legend, the month theme.
Black Music Month
This yearly event honors the impact that African Americans have made to the music business. Increase the impact of your June email by include information and tales about your favorite musicians.
Pride Month
So June is Pride Month, and then monthly events, we actually just plug them in the calendar.
We have a lot of events that are starting to come up, which is really exciting. So make sure that you keep an eye out for them on the calendar. And then some useful E-commerce information about the month.
June is part of the summer. Obviously, it’s when we still start to see or continue to see kind of the slower E-commerce months. However, this is a really good time for you to continue to nurture your loyal customers, try and find some new customers because holidays are just around the corner.
So with that in mind, let’s get started. So again, like I mentioned, June is Pride Month. So for the LGBTQ community, it’s important for brands who this matches with and who this fits along with in order to rebrand kind of their emails and what they look like in honor of Pride Month. So that’s the first thing.
Here are some examples of Pride Month email designs and campaign strategies.\
Men’s Health Month
This inspires guys to lead healthier lives and take responsibility for their wellbeing. Exercises, food advice, and strategies for spotting men’s health issues early can all be included in your June newsletter. That is also a topic worth looking into, especially now that mental health is receiving the attention it so well deserves.
