Off Season Selling

Hey everyone,

 

What is your off season selling like? How much of a drop in sales do you typically see and what do you do with your extra time? Do you make more stock bats to get ready for the next season? Different models?  Do you experiment with different processes (i.e. paints, logos)? Do you push your sales during the off season or just take it easy?

 

I'm looking forward to hearing your responses!

We have no Off Season as a Custom maker.  There are peaks and valleys, but no real down time.

If you only deal directly with players who are buying bats from you, then it certainly feels like "down time"... however, if you are marketing your bats to retailers... then activity is year-round....

 

There are "different" seasons...   

  - Jan-Mar (Spring Training orders, and pre-orders by players and teams)... 

  - Mar - Jun (players ordering bats directly).... 

  -  Jul-Aug  (re-orders for players and Dealers)...   

  -   Sep - Dec  (retail stores ordering bats to stock for the following Spring)
