That means your revenue concentrates into a few frantic weeks around Valentine's, Easter, and Christmas, while February, summer, and early fall go quiet. Meanwhile, most customers forget a business within about 12 months — so the shoppers who bought your couverture gift boxes last December may not think of you at all by their next birthday or anniversary.
