This is the fifth ecommerce business type in our series — and it’s often the most misunderstood.
In this episode, Mark and Ian unpack the Seasonal Specialist model — where 80%+ of revenue happens in just 6–8 weeks. Whether you sell Christmas hampers, school shoes, winter clothing, or Valentine’s gifts, this episode shows you:
🔍 What you’ll learn:
•Why trying to "smooth the troughs" is a waste of time
•How to maximize the peak season instead of burning cash year-round
•Why most seasonal brands overspend in quiet months
•How to use event-based email + SMS to create more peaks
•How brands like BGreater, British Hampers & Stormy Kromer scaled fast by getting this right
•The one thing your agency will never understand about seasonal scaling
