Hey people. Im curious- as a huge generalisation, when is peak, and when is off peak? I think its roughly like this- tell me if Im wrong...
September-march=peak
april-august=off peak
Right?
Trying to predict if this is the high point or the low point... Thanks.

yeah something like that.

Fall is the best, spring is ok, and summer is not so good.

Fall-spring is the better of the two half years, but christmas is bad, but before christmas is extra good so perhaps it evens that out

According to my personal history, all months from Feb to Oct are steady with a down turn from
Nov to Jan. But I have only 3 years experience selling stock.

Well, being slow in the Summer months would certainly correlate to people taking summer vacations. Sc, I guess that makes sense.

My sales are so all over the place that I have not noticed much of a trend. I do however notice slow downs during holidays. That makes perfect sense to me.

I think in around July/ August is one of the real Off Peaks
Hols and vacation time = sales drop.
