About National Field Marketer’s Day
National Field Marketer’s Day is observed on September 23 as a professional-recognition day created by event-marketing company Splash in 2021.
The observance highlights people who run field marketing programs and customer-facing events, but it does not create universal workplace rights, compensation rules or performance standards.
Why National Field Marketer’s Day matters
The day is meant to make field-marketing work more visible and to recognize the planning, coordination and relationship-building that happens around in-person and hybrid programs.
Recognition can be as simple as a thank-you or team acknowledgement; employers should still follow their own policies and applicable employment rules for compensation, rewards and performance management.
