When gym demand peaks in Portland.
Searches for gyms in Portland peak in January at about 22,310 a month and bottom out in April at about 17,050, a swing of roughly 31%. The three busiest months over the last year were January, October and June.
We plan for that: new creative and a higher budget go live a few weeks before January, so campaigns are already learning when demand arrives. In slower months like April, the money usually works harder on retention, rebook reminders and win-back messages to past members than on chasing fewer searches.
Most US cities we track peak in January for gyms, and Portland follows the same pattern.
