The Silly Season
I’ve been making money online for over a decade.
I know that sales and traffic slow down in August. In fact, I remember mentioning the topic many, many years ago… and then just a few years ago… and now I’m doing it again. Did I mention I’ve been online forever?
By all means, go on holiday now if you want… the kids are out of school (for about 36 weeks it feels like!), the politicians all took a huge break, as did the teachers. People are outside gardening, at the beach, playing cricket… not glued to their computer monitors and inboxes. So, if you want a holiday, now is a good time.
But, you don’t have to let the summer slow you down if you don’t want it to. Three years ago, John Reese had his “million dollar day“. It was actually August 17, 2004, right in the middle of the “silly season“.
So, it’s up to you really, isn’t it?
