Seasonality

When gym demand peaks in Washington.

Searches for gyms in Washington run close to their high of about 29,850 a month through September, January and June, and drop to about 24,030 in December, a swing of roughly 24% from the slowest month to the busiest.

We plan for that: new creative and a higher budget go live a few weeks before the busy stretch, so campaigns are already learning when demand arrives. In slower months like December, the money usually works harder on retention, rebook reminders and win-back messages to past members than on chasing fewer searches.
