Seasonality

When tattoo demand peaks in Columbus.

Searches for tattoo shops in Columbus peak in March at about 6,780 a month and bottom out in August at about 3,830, a swing of roughly 77%. The three busiest months over the last year were March, February and April.

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

Most US cities we track peak in March for tattoo shops, and Columbus follows the same pattern.
