First Day of Spring 2011

Marketing Strategies for the First Day of Spring 2011 Already Hot The First Day of Spring 2011 may not come for another 19 days (with the March equinox on March 20), but savvy marketers know to begin their sales campaigns early. Never mind that Romania, Moldova and Bulgaria, do celebrate March 1st as the first day of spring – this only has to do with ancient traditions from these specific countries, traditions that, ironically, have a lot to do with marketing and sales too. Today, Romanians buy flowers, gifts and mărțișoare for the women in their lives, and so do Moldavians, and Bulgarians, although, in Bulgaria the small symbol of the spring is called martenitsa. For all these countries, and for many others inhabited by Romanians and Aromanians, the first day of March is a traditional holiday associated with sending off winter and welcoming spring – the first day of spring. But these are rather singular cases. Most of the world celebrates the first day of spring with the Vernal equinox.
