Keeping up with traditions and celebrations is an important part of life. Here are our tips to staying connected with friends and loved ones during the upcoming holiday season, no matter what holiday you’re celebrating!

DECEMBER 2020

CHRISTMAS Treat yourself.

If you’re feeling a little bit more like the grinch this year, find the spirit of Christmas that brings you the most joy. Is it the decorating? The sweets? The movies? This has been a trying year, so don’t be afraid to indulge a little bit and keep the spirit of the season alive.

Create an advent calendar just for your family.

You might be a little bit tired of your household members by now. Try making a little advent calendar with festive activities for each day, rather than a treat. It could be drinking hot cocoa together and wearing

Santa hats or watching your favorite Christmas movies together. It will help make the season brighter.

Give a little back.

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: giving back is one of the best ways to bring goodness to the world- feeling gratitude and happiness as a result is just a benefit! There are lots of opportunities to help- like paying for a holiday meal for a family in need or donating toys to hospitalized children. Visit a website like VolunteerMatch.com to find local places to help.

HANUKKAH Share your favorite Hanukkah recipes with goodie bags.

If you’re not able to gather with friends, you can still whip up your favorite traditional recipes and put them in goodie bags to share (only recommended if you know you have no symptoms of COVID-19). We suggest making rugelach, sufganiyot (jelly donuts), or a little gelt. Click here for more Hanukkah recipes.

Smaller gathering this year?

Make it a real feast.

You’ll probably want to serve all the classic Hanukkah dishes like latkes, brisket, kugel, and matzo ball soup (a great way to help keep off the chill!). Feel free to mix up the

recipe to make this year feel special. Try breakfast for dinner one night with challah French toast or a sweet noodle kugel and melted-gelt hot cocoa to enjoy.

Getting together to eat has been one of the most beloved pastimes since the dawn of time. If your holiday meal gatherings are smaller than usual, you can still do something special with those you live with. Make your traditional dishes and then some.

Light up the night.

If you choose to celebrate outdoors this year, you’ll need a menorah that won’t blow out from a gust of wind. Try a modern LED version.

K WA N Z A A Though Kwanzaa is a relatively new tradition, it is observed by millions of Black Americans in the United States and spans from December 26 through January 1. Each day of the week is meant to represent one of the seven core principles of the holiday: Umoja (unity) Kujichagulia (self-determination) Ujima (collective work and responsibility) Ujamaa (cooperative economics) Nia (purpose) Kuumba (creativity) Imani (faith) Go all out with decorations.

The classic Kwanzaa decorations incorporate a mkeka placemat, which is covered in an ear of corn, fruits and the Kinara, a seven-candle holder that’s lit for each night of Kwanzaa.

The ear of corn represents fertility and hope for the future through children, while the fruits are meant to symbolize both joy and the fruitful results of collective hard work. To top it off, add a unity cup to signify community.

On the sixth day, the cup is filled with water, wine, or juice, and every family member takes a sip in remembrance of their ancestors and to symbolize togetherness.

Stuff your face with cuisine from around the world.

Kwanzaa is the perfect time to honor the many different cultures of the African diaspora through their customary dishes.

Some examples are jerk chicken, jollof rice, black eyed peas, or any of the countless traditional recipes from around the world.

There’s sure to be something delicious for everyone.

T I P S F R O M T H E C D C O N H O W T O H AV E A S A F E H O L I DAY S E A S O N

If you’re planning to host a holiday celebration, you should assess the current COVID-19 levels in your community to determine whether to postpone, cancel or limit the number of attendees.

Choose the location thoughtfully. Indoor gatherings generally pose more risk than outdoor gatherings. Indoor gatherings with poor ventilation pose more risk than those with good ventilation, such as those with open windows or doors.

Consider keeping it to a time limit.

Gatherings that last longer pose more risk than shorter gatherings.

4

You don’t have to minimize guests if your guests will monitor their own risk of exposure.

The size of a holiday gathering should be determined based on the ability to reduce or limit contact between attendees, the risk of spread between attendees, and state, local, territorial, or tribal health and safety laws, rules, and regulations.

Select your guests with intention.

As nice as it would be for everyone to get together, gatherings with attendees who are not adhering to social distancing pose more risk than gatherings with attendees who are engaging in these preventative behaviors.

Social Media 101 How to Start a Google Business Page

T

he benefits to creating a Google Business page are plenty. Your business page makes it easy for Customers to discover your business and the products and services you sell. It also places your store on Google Maps, along with important info like your store hours, website, and street address. It also allows you to read and respond to reviews from Customers and gain valuable insights about how customers find your listing and what they do after finding it, including how many have requested directions, visited your website (if you have one) or called your business.

Creating a Google Business Page takes a few steps, but is super easy with these instructions. Here’s how to do it.

Step 1.

Make sure you have a Google Account for your business.

This is the free account you create with Google so you can have access to Google Docs, Google Drive, Google Photos, Gmail, and more. Some people call it their “Gmail account,” but Gmail is just one of the features; you can actually use any email to set up a Google Account. We recommend creating a business Google Account separate from your personal account.

Here’s how to set yours up.

TO P O F N E X T PAG E

NOVEMBER 2020

Go to accounts.google.com/signin.

Click “Create account”.

Select that your account is “To manage my business”.

Step 2.

Sign up for a Google My Business Account This account is a free account you create through Google that will give you access to manage and enhance your Business Profile. It’s likely that a Business Profile already exists for your business, but you can claim and manage it through a Google My Business Account. Here’s how to sign up for a Google My Business Account once you have created a standard Google Account.

1. Make sure you are logged into the standard Google Account for your business (and not the standard Google Account for your personal life).

2. Go to google.com/business.

3. Select “Manage now.”

Enter your business name and click the listing that matches your address and click “Manage now” again”

4. If you don’t see your business, click “Create a business with this name” and provide the basic information Google asks for, including: Business name Address Website Phone number Delivery area (if applicable) Category Step 3.

Request to claim your Business Profile.

You must verify your Google My Business account in order to properly manage it, which can be done by entering a code that will be sent to the business address in a postcard. Once you receive the code and enter it into the box, you will have full ownership of your Business Profile on Google! You can now manage reviews, update information, and optimize your page for local Customers to find you.

CONGRATULATIONS!

WE’RE HERE TO HELP! If you have any questions reach out to us at ultrasocial@ultra.me and we’ll be happy to help.
