The holiday season offers a rich content window—but many creators go overly cliché. If you want to keep it classy (or witty) while standing out, here are fresh content prompts for Thanksgiving and beyond.
Prompt 1: “What I’m really thankful for in my creative journey.”
Avoid generic holiday phrases. Share a short video or post describing one unexpected lesson, one mistake you’re grateful for, or one person who supported you.
Prompt 2: “Behind‑the‑scenes: How we prep content between turkey and chores.”
Show your workflow, unscripted moments, or how you balance holiday family time and creating.
Prompt 3: “Holiday content fails & fix‑it moment.”
Share a funny or humanising fail (holiday lighting, mic issues, family interruptions) and how you corrected it.
Prompt 4: “5 gift ideas for creators on a budget.”
Make it practical: affordable gear, software deals, or productivity hacks—rather than over‑the‑top gadgets.
Prompt 5: “New‑year vocab: What I’ll stop doing in my content next year.”
Use the holiday pause to reflect: what old habits will you ditch, what new ones will you start?
Why this works:
- They feel personal and authentic—not just seasonal clichés.
- They tie into the holiday mood but still focus on your creator or business identity.
- They invite engagement: ask your audience what they’re thankful for, what fails they encountered, etc.
