How to get your brand and products on the June editorial calendars, higher up on search and AI engines and in social media

Our June PR toolkit and content calculator is here to help PRs and marketers forward-plan campaigns and pitches armed with some timely and topical angles, plus it’s a checklist for potential campaign hooks.

Summer is here - and hopefully, the weather will improve – and the media will be starting to ramp up their summer holiday features. For fashion clients add summer clothing, swimwear, beachwear, sandals, garden party, going out as keywords/phrases, plus any relevant keywords for accessories, like make-up bags, jewellery rolls, phone cases, suitcases, travel bags, travel accessories etc.

For home, push anything related to the outside, including garden furniture, anything for a garden party, a picnic, or a barbecue. Don’t forget to add all of the other spellings, such as BBQ, Bar-B-Que, etc.

Also, add general summer holiday keywords like beach holiday, travel, travelling and vacation etc.

We’re also at the start of the festival season, so upload any items related to festivals and make sure you add the keyword “festival” or use some of the big festivals as keywords like Glastonbury – it’s not on this year but people will still be looking for it - or any of the other big festivals, Isle of Wight, British Summer Time, Boardmasters and Reading, Leeds. 

Also, look at any sports-related items, as this month sees the start of football’s World Cup Finals in the US/Mexico/Canada. Plus, look at anything tennis-related for Wimbledon, which is coming up in early July.

If you’re a PRShots brand user and you need more ideas, then take a look at the keywords that media are searching for on PRShots and try and add those in.

If you’re looking for more hooks to promote your brand and products, see the list of days, weeks, and fortnights below.
