National Tie Month is celebrated in December to honour the most integral part of a formal clothing ensemble — the tie. Neckties level up one's sense of style and boost one's confidence.

The history of the tie can be traced back to ancient Egypt, where men wore scarves around their necks to signify their social status. The tie as we know it today evolved in Croatia in the 17th century, when soldiers wore scarves around their necks to keep their uniforms neat. These scarves were eventually adopted by European fashion, and by the 19th century, the tie had become an essential part of men's formal wear.

National Tie Month was created in 1993 by the Tie Council of America, a trade association for neckwear manufacturers. The goal of the holiday is to promote the tie as a stylish and essential accessory for men of all ages.

Today, people celebrate National Tie Month in a variety of ways. Some people wear a tie to work or to other special events every day of the month. Others may choose to buy a new tie or give one as a gift. Some companies and organisations may also hold tie-themed events, such as tie-dying workshops or tie-wearing contests.

Here are some ideas for how to celebrate National Tie Month:

  • Wear a tie to work or to other special events every day of the month.

  • Buy a new tie or give one as a gift.

  • Host a tie-themed event, such as a tie-dying workshop or tie-wearing contest.

  • Learn about the history of the tie and different tie knots.

  • Visit a men's fashion store and browse the tie selection.

  • Watch a movie or TV show where the characters wear ties.

  • Take a selfie in your favourite tie and post it on social media with the hashtag #NationalTieMonth.

 

Leverage this holiday to grow your business

Businesses of all sizes can leverage National Tie Month to market and grow their businesses. Here are a few ideas:

  • Offer discounts or promotions on ties. This is a great way to attract new customers and encourage existing customers to spend more. For example, you could offer a buy-one, get-one-half-off deal on all ties or a free tie with any purchase over $100.

  • Host a tie-themed event. This could be anything from a tie-dying workshop to a tie-wearing contest. Events are a great way to generate excitement and buzz around your brand. You could also use the event to collect email addresses or social media followers from potential customers.

  • Create tie-themed content. This could include blog posts, social media posts, or even videos about the history of ties, different tie knots, or how to choose the right tie for different occasions. Content marketing is a great way to educate and engage your target audience.

  • Partner with other businesses. For example, you could partner with a local men's fashion store to offer a joint promotion or event. Partnering with other businesses can help you reach a new audience and cross-promote your products or services.

Here are some specific examples of how businesses have leveraged National Tie Month in the past:

  • A men's clothing store offered a 20% discount on all ties during National Tie Month.

  • A tie manufacturer hosted a tie-dying workshop where customers could create their own custom ties.

  • A men's fashion magazine published a blog post about the latest tie trends.

  • A social media influencer partnered with a tie company to give away a free tie to one of her followers.

  • A local chamber of commerce hosted a tie-wearing contest where businesses could compete for the title of "Best Tie-Wearing Business."

Regardless of the industry you're in, there's a way to leverage National Tie Month to market and grow your business. Be creative and think about how you can make National Tie Month relevant to your target audience.
