August Holidays for Business Leaders and Entrepreneurs

August is a month full of holidays and celebrations, from Back to School Month to Black Business Month to Dog Month. And for business leaders and entrepreneurs, there are plenty of opportunities to use these holidays to connect with customers, promote your business, and boost sales.

Here are a few special notes and fun facts about some of the August holidays:

  • International Beer Day is celebrated on the first Friday of August. This is a great opportunity for breweries and bars to offer discounts or special promotions on beer.

  • Friendship Day is celebrated on the first Sunday of August. This is a day to celebrate the importance of friendship in business. You could host a networking event, offer discounts to customers who bring a friend, or simply send a message to your customers to let them know how much you appreciate their friendship.

  • World Honey Bee Day is celebrated on the third Saturday of August. This is a day to raise awareness of the importance of honey bees and to promote sustainable beekeeping practices. You could donate to a local beekeeping organisation, host a honey tasting event, or simply learn more about the importance of honey bees.
