41 Evergreen Social Media Ideas to Post for Your Paint Business

Have you run out of ideas for what to post on social media to help promote your paint business? Don’t worry, we have a list of over 40 evergreen social media ideas to get you started!

What is an “Evergreen” Social Media Post?

When we say a social media topic is evergreen, this means it can be posted any time of year, regardless of the season or date. Unlike posts that have a time limit, such as posts about holiday or seasonal promotions, evergreen posts can be included in your social media calendar whenever you need to publish content.

 Examples of Evergreen Social Media Content

Check out some examples of evergreen content we’ve posted to Fusion Mineral Paint UK’s social media accounts:

• This Facebook post helps followers understand how they can create a shabby chic crackled texture look with their next paint project.
• This Instagram post includes a customer review for our paint products.
• This Twitter post helps followers learn how to make their paint job more durable and long-lasting.

All of these posts could be published any time of year, so they’re evergreen!
