Fourth Quarter - - - It's my first!

[HeatherM]

This is going to be my first 4th quarter and I am curios as to what seasoned Zazzle designers have experienced in the past? I know that for my Etsy shop last year, the bulk of my orders for the year came the first two weeks of December.
(Last year was my first Etsy year.)

I have made a bit of holiday focused items, but I do not know if that is where I should spend my energy or if I should focus more on items that are not specifically for Christmas.

Thank you in advance for any shared experiences!

Over the years, the drop off point seems to usually happen around December 10th, might be different this year, considering the economy, fluctuating prices, the high cost of insurance due to weather events, shipping times and whatever other variables that pop up.

There are definitely a ton of variables! I was really starting to get nervous last year because I heard that Q4 sales are crazy and my sales were slow until after Black Friday. I am excited to see how the Zazzle market place is for the holidays.
