This series will kick off with a overview of all the significant nationally recognized days on the calendar, and a nuts and bolts overview of seasonal marketing tactics that can plug-and-play into the calendar. Our series will have a focus on the fourth quarter with real-time strategies for Thanksgiving (and Small Business Saturday), Cyber Monday, and the Christmas Season. Our sponsor, Chick-fil-A will provide insight on how they use Superbowl Sunday to sell their catering packages and we'll end with a Clark College Economic & Community Development Instructor's take on using the Spring Season to create a marketing strategy that is ripe for picking.
