Seasonal Campaign Strategies
4 min readUpdated 2026-02-16
Key Takeaway
Start seasonal campaigns 4-6 weeks before the industry's peak demand period — for example, target HVAC companies in April, accountants in November, and fitness businesses in December for the January surge.
Why Timing Matters
Businesses have predictable cycles. Reaching out when they're most likely to need your service dramatically increases response rates.

Timing Your Campaigns
- Start campaigns 4-6 weeks before the seasonal peak
- Mention the season explicitly in your campaign goal so your agent references it in outreach
- Run parallel campaigns — one seasonal, one evergreen — to maintain consistent flow
Example Seasonal Goal
"Book 15 HVAC maintenance contracts with homeowners' associations in Phoenix before May 1st, focusing on communities with 100+ units that haven't scheduled their spring AC check yet."
