November is the month of Christmas decor put up a little early and a whole lot of Mariah Carey and Micheal Bublé everywhere. Brands too piped in with Christmas-themed posts, contests, and giveaways. If they weren’t posting Christmas greetings, they were participating in popular memes, publishing brand-related posts, and conducting giveaways.
