February is perhaps best known as the month we celebrate Valentine's Day. But most savvy retailers also acknowledge February as African American History Month, a time to remember the contributions of African Americans to the founding, building and growth of America.

 

 

February is full of many other occasions to market your business or use your service to help your clients market their businesses: National Cat Health Month, National Snack Food Month, National Embroidery Month and more. The 4th week of February is National Engineers Week.

 

Each of these commemorations is sponsored by a group or organization thus offering you a starting point for marketing your gift basket business. You can discover how each month of the year offers you many chances to increase your profits by marketing on my CD's 99 Sizzling Marketing Ideas to Make More Money--January through June" and "99 MORE Sizzling Marketing Ideas to Make More Money--July through December . These CD's not only identify year-round celebrations, but also offer a wealth of suggested groups to contact, how to partner with other retailers, how to move slow-moving inventory and lots more.
