Anyone know what the best month is?

Someone had told me December was horrible, and they also said January was very good.

Can anyone confirm?

    I think it vary with the niche. An info product about making Christmas related items might do very well in December.

    I have also heard January but I don't know how to determine that for sure.

    I know I spend more time online in January because my job slows down and I don't like being out in the cold.

      I'm sure health and diet stuff will be better in January because that's everyone's new years resolution to lose weight etc. I think IM stuff will do good as well after the holidays when everyone has to go back to their jobs for another year and wonder how they can make some extra money to pay off the maxed out credit cards from the holidays.

      Cheers

    Summertime is usually the worst for all business at least in the U.S. because of vacationing and summer activities

      I agree. If you think like a consumer, you will know which niches will do best in certain months. Most people make new years resolutions to loose weight and get healthy, so January is ideal for weight loss products. ANd since February everyone is thinking of Valentines day, then anyone relationship market should do above average. But with the economy still so tough, I think MMO will do well all year long.

      Sales often fluctuate at various times throughout the year. Some products are more susceptible to these variables. But if you're selling evergreen products of decent quality, you should be able to sell year round and achieve a good number of sales every month. I found that many times over the years, the months I anticipated would be slower, proved just the opposite.

      One might expect December may be a little slower on average for info-products that would be unlikely choices for gifts. But when I checked my accounts on Christmas Day last year and saw that sales still trickled in over the previous 24 hours, it kind of opened my eyes and made me count my lucky stars for the wondrous opportunities today's technology gives us. It's a beautiful thing.

    I would say it's December. It's when most people actually do the buying and it's best to grab this opportunity to boost the marketing of your product.
    Other months are also good; it just depends on the niche and the strategy you apply, but December is the excellent month.

    If you are after IM info product sales, december is almost always bad, unless you tie it into christmas. I don't know about January, I usually wait till feb so that way wallets have had time to recover before I do launches.
