Budget-Friendly Holiday Content Hacks: Plan Early, Create More, Spend Less | The Social Circle | Ep 30

Episode 30?!?! Wow!

Holiday content gets attention, but it doesn’t have to drain your wallet.

In this episode, Candace and Jennifer share simple, repeatable ways to make festive videos using what you already own, why planning early beats posting on October 29, and how to tie your offers into seasonal content without sounding salesy.

What you’ll learn:

• How to plan holiday content early so it actually gets seen

• Fast “set” ideas with everyday items (mugs, candles, blankets, plants)

• Free/low-cost tools to edit and refresh last year’s clips (Canva, CapCut, native editors)

• Smart ways to repurpose top-performing posts from previous seasons

• Natural, non-pushy ways to sell during the holidays (save time, reduce stress, gifting help)

  
  

Social Spotlight: seasonal/trending audio formats that come back every year (yes, Mariah Carey and Thriller).
Inside the VIP Circle: why community matters most during the busiest season and how to get support, feedback, and ideas.
