Or, wish everyone a wonderful International Women’s Day with a colorful video like the one below.

Consider using these hashtags if you share your video on social media: #InternationalWomensDay2024, #IWD2024, #IWD24

Employee Appreciation Day

Your employees are the heartbeat of your business, and they should be celebrated as such. Take this small opportunity to thank them for everything they do and show off their talent and skills with video. Customize our Employee Appreciation Day template with photos, video clips, and text showcasing your invaluable team members.

Don’t stop short at just one team. Show everyone in your organization that you see and value their work! Create and share this video in your next all hand’s meeting, over Slack, or wherever your teams meet.

Ramadan Greetings

Ramadan presents a unique opportunity to connect deeply with your audience during this spiritually significant time. Our Ramadan Greeting video template allows you to convey messages of unity, compassion, and solidarity in a visually compelling and emotionally resonant way. Whether you're sharing stories of community service, offering reflections on faith, or simply extending warm wishes for the holy month, video has the power to foster a sense of belonging and understanding among viewers.

Daylight Savings/Spring Forward Sale

Daylight Savings has arrived—and while that means a little less sleep, it also signals that new beginnings are on the horizon. Reward your customers for making it through another winter with a “Spring Forward” flash sale, discounting some of your favorite warm-weather products and services. You can also use this as a chance to share some of your new spring goods with our Seasonal Promotion or New Product Intro templates.

St. Patrick's Day

Encourage social engagement on March 17th with a festive video, wishing friends and followers a happy St. Patrick’s Day.

Need photos and video clips of four-leaf clovers, green beer, or a pot of gold waiting at the end of a rainbow to add to your video invite? Check out our extensive stock library. The Select stock library on our Professional plan features 1 million+ photos and videos from Getty Images, and the Premium library on our Professional Plus plan offers 100 million+ photos and video clips.

National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day

Small business owners are the unsung heroes of the American economy. Use National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day to create brand awareness and increase traffic to your business, both virtually and in person. Help customers get a better understanding of the face behind your business and encourage sales with our Business Story or Local Business Showcase templates.

Easter

For many, Easter marks the official start of Spring. Whether you celebrate or not personally, you can hop on the trend and wish your audience a happy Easter. Here are three greetings you can use:

• Happy Easter from the [Your Company Name] team!
• We carrot ‘bout you a lot!
• There’s no bunny like you!
