23 The youngest of the Baby Boomers turn 55 this year. True, their headiest spending days are behind them, but with two-thirds of the country’s wealth under their control, they are not a segment to be overlooked (even if marketers seem obsessed with Gen X, Y and Z). On Baby Boomers Recognition Day, ask yourself if your advertising budget is showing America’s most populous generation the proper respect. Nationally, only 5 percent of ad dollars are directed at what is still the country’s single biggest-spending cohort.

1 Try to imagine a world without jazz, ragtime, R&B, rock, soul or hip-hop. To commemorate AFRICAN-AMERICAN MUSIC APPRECIATION MONTH, hit up an appropriate Spotify or Apple Music channel and share a debt of gratitude with your customers.

8 On NATIONAL CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM DAY, find an ice cream business that can print your logo on the container and ship to influencers in the area to enjoy while on a Zoom call, says Megan Crabtree of Crabtree Consulting. Share images from the call on social media.

20 Greet THE ARRIVAL OF SUMMER with a list of important tasks you’ve been putting off. Pledge to do one a day.

Retiring? Let Wilkerson Do the Heavy Lifting

Retirement can be a great part of life. As Nanji Singadia puts it, “I want to retire and enjoy my life. I’m 78 now and I just want to take a break.” That said, Nanji decided that the best way to move ahead was to contact the experts at Wilkerson. He chose them because he knew that closing a store is a heavy lift. To maximize sales and move on to the next, best chapter of his life, he called Wilkerson—but not before asking his industry friends for their opinion. He found that Wilkerson was the company most recommended and says their professionalism, experience and the homework they did before the launch all helped to make his going out of business sale a success. “Wilkerson were working on the sale a month it took place,” he says. “They did a great job.”
