Did you know that holiday spending makes up nearly 19 percent of annual retail sales in the United States, according to the National Retail Federation.
Kitsap County follows that trend, especially during November and December when local foot traffic spikes around events like Winterfest, Kingston’s Tree Lighting, and Poulsbo’s holiday markets.
If you miss this window, you miss the revenue that could carry your business through slow months like January and February.
That is why learning how to build a 30-day content calendar matters right now, especially in Kitsap County.
So here is the uncomfortable truth:
Most Kitsap businesses post randomly and call it marketing.
They share one flyer on Facebook and hope customers magically show up.
This leads to silent inboxes, empty booking calendars, and customers going to bigger brands with louder online presence.
The Kitsap Holiday Revenue Boost model is designed to fix that.
The model helps local businesses get fully booked by aligning content with consumer behavior, local events, and community rhythms.
This guide will show you exactly how to build a 30-day content calendar using that model.
What problem is this calendar solving?
Local customers do not buy from businesses they forget, even if they like you.
You need repeat visibility, predictable posting, and content that encourages action.
Problems this calendar solves:
• Posting without strategy
• No consistency across platforms
• Seasonal traffic without seasonal messaging
• No alignment with Kitsap events, moods, or needs
• Content that feels general instead of local
When you know how to build a 30-day content calendar with the Kitsap Holiday Revenue Boost model, you make content that meets customers where they already are.
What is the Kitsap Holiday Revenue Boost model?
It is a structure that breaks content into weekly zones that match real holiday buying behavior in Kitsap County.
Week 1: Awareness and curiosity
Week 2: Trust building and social proof
Week 3: Urgency with community relevance
Week 4: Conversion with irresistible holiday offers
Each week has a job.
No guesswork. No random posting.

How to build a 30-day content calendar
Step 1: Choose your 3 priority platforms
Pick based on where Kitsap locals are actually active.
Top choices for Kitsap businesses right now:
• Facebook (Kingston, Poulsbo, Port Orchard groups are active)
• Instagram Reels (younger crowd, visuals, stories)
• Google Business Profile Posts (shows up before your website)
If you only choose one, choose Google Business Profile.
Step 2: Build a posting rhythm
Use this simple rhythm so nothing feels overwhelming.
4 posts per week
• 1 Reels or video
• 1 Google Business Profile post
• 1 Facebook or Instagram feed post
• 1 Story or behind the scenes
This equals 16 pieces of content each month.
The remaining days are comments and replies, not posting.
Step 3: Plan your content by week
Week 1: Awareness
Goal: Be seen by Kitsap County
Post ideas:
• Local event connection
Example:
“Heading to Winterfest? Swing by our shop for a free cup of cocoa with purchase today in Port Orchard.”

“What is your favorite Kitsap holiday tradition? We are building a list.”
• Clear statement of what problem you solve
“No long wait times. No confusion. Book before the holiday rush.”
Week 2: Trust
Goal: Make people comfortable choosing you
Post ideas:
• Quick customer story
• Before and after photos
• Real price ranges
• A screenshot of a real message (with permission)
Make sure every post mentions Kitsap.
People shop local when they feel local.
Week 3: Urgency
Goal: Make the holiday moment matter
Post ideas:
• Countdown to last booking dates
• Limited holiday packages
• Partner with another Kitsap business
Example:
“Book carpet cleaning with us and get 10 percent off decor at Silverdale’s Copper & Clay.”
Week 4: Conversion
