December: The Last Date of the Marketing Calendar - Winning Strategies to End the Year Successfully
December is not just the month to close the year on a high note; it is a unique opportunity to boost sales, build customer loyalty and strengthen the bond with your community. It is the season of holidays, gifts and celebrations, but also the time when every customer, especially VIP customers, must feel pampered, special and an integral part of your company.
In this article, we’ll walk you through strategies and practical actions to maximize your December results, propelling your business forward and laying a solid foundation for 2025 and beyond.
1. December: A Crucial Month for Sales and Relationships
- Drive Sales: This is the perfect month to capitalize on the rush for gifts, holiday preparations, and New Year’s Eve celebrations.

2. Marketing Strategies for December
Commercial Calendar and Editorial Plan

Make the community feel special:
