Summer is the time when people are out and looking for adventure and experiences. Historically, this is the least busiest season for online shopping, however, in order to take advantage of this time, advertisers need to be creative in order to capture their audience. Instead of waiting for consumers to come to you, re-evaluate your strategy to include capitalization on key events, a summer sale, along with updating your visuals and ad copy to reflect the summer feeling.
Capitalize On Key Events
Even though summer might be the least busiest time, there are some major events that advertisers can take advantage of. It is important to research key events and find out which are most effective for your target consumer. A good example is back to college/school shopping season.
