Ep 28: Q5: The Hidden Goldmine Between Christmas and New Year’s
That weird, cozy week between Christmas and New Year’s isn’t just for leftovers and movie marathons; it’s one of the most overlooked opportunities in marketing.
In this episode, Avery breaks down what “Q5” really is, why CPMs drop while audiences scroll endlessly, and how smart brands use this window to squeeze in extra revenue before year-end. From verticals that thrive (wellness, fitness, CPG) to creative angles that actually work (“Santa didn’t get you what you wanted?”), this is your guide to turning holiday downtime into serious results.
