Birthdays only come once in a year right? So, why don’t you create that once in a year special content for your loyal employees.

Look to your customers’ frequently asked questions (FAQs) for inspiration. Addressing the common questions or concerns in your content not only provides valuable information to your audience but also helps position your brand as a helpful resource.
