How To Find The Right Time To Promote Your Offer
Do you ever wonder when is the right time to start promoting your offer?
I’m sure you know the obvious seasonal ones. Like Mother’s Day, Easter, Christmas…
But if you have something that is related to a more specific time for your audience, you want to make sure you ride the online tide. It’s a competitive world out there after all.
Even if your product or service is not seasonal as such, when planning your content it helps to be topical.
When you write about what your audience has on their minds right now, you’ll be instantly relevant.
Instantly hot news.
Plus, you’ll be more likely to capture the interest of more people who are actively seeking your help.

Three years of data tells us that January is undisputedly the time busy-moms are thinking about getting organized with their family meal planning.
Not a major surprise.
But look at that chart….showing massive growth in the last two years – that’s a big opportunity keyword.
Just imagine what you might end up finding out once you start delving into the Pandora’s box of Google Trends!
