Planning purchasing for the new year can seem overwhelming, but keeping major buying seasons in mind can make this easier. From holidays to school breaks, here are the seasons to keep track of this year.
June-August
This is the biggest buying season of the year! Shopping at this time is key for back-to-school restocks and move-in essentials. Keep an eye out for DSC promos and the restocked Merchandising Portal for tips and tricks during this season!
October
October is the time to think about restocking for second semester. Focus on products that sold well during the back-to-school season and other basics that students will need all year long, and keep an eye out for DSC’s Second Semester Product Guide and other promos to make this process easier.
November-December
Leading up to the holiday season, students and parents get busy purchasing for the many upcoming holidays. Stock up on fun gifts for this season and look out for DSC’s Holiday Gift Guide for stocking recommendations.
Final Thoughts
Back-to-school, second semester restocks, and holiday shopping are some of the busiest times of year for college retailers. Mark these seasons down on your calendar and make sure to keep an eye out for DSC publications and promos during these key purchasing periods!
