Top 5 – Q4 Gamification Campaigns

Q4 is commonly associated with increased consumer spending, as it aligns with the holiday season. It’s a time filled with sales opportunities – not only for B2C businesses, but also for B2B enterprises.

Shopping during the holiday season is a common, albeit odd, practice. If we look at it from another perspective: your customers and business partners are more likely to make large unfinished purchases in the fourth quarter than any other time of the year.

Here are some Q4 dates worth remembering and planning for:
Halloween          31st      October
Singles Day         11th      November
Black Friday        26th     November
Christmas Day    25th     December
New Year’s Day    1st       January

Time to plan ahead

Have you taken the time to map your Q4 marketing strategy yet?
If not, now is a good time to start. Q4 is known for being the most overwhelming, yet important sales quarter in any industry, which can (literally) make or break your entire fiscal year.

How to take advantage of Q4?
1. Invest in your top funnel activities
2. Test your offers ahead of time
3. Plan out your marketing calendar

It’s simple!
