The best and worst Q4 shopping trends for your business in 2020
This year feels like a never ending up hill marathon, am I right? But, wait! Here comes a holiday season like never before. Oy, there’s a lot on the horizon - I totally get it and feel your frustration.
There are marketing struggles that I see brands endure year after year after year, even before this year from h-e-double hockey sticks. October hits and business owners become frantic and start jumping on trends left and right to try to make a buck. It bums me out BIG TIME.
