Q4 Planner
How much more could you sell this Q4?
Most brands plan Q4 around demand. The thing that usually caps the quarter is how many orders you can physically get out the door. Answer eight questions and this works out the gap.
01
Your business today
So we can work out what a normal week looks like for you.
This sets a starting point for your Q4 lift further down.
Outside peak season.
$
Roughly what a typical order is worth.
%
After cost of goods, before shipping and overhead.
02
Your shipping setup
This is what decides your ceiling.
Everything working, all hands on it. Your realistic ceiling.
Include yourself if you pack.
How fast does an order leave you at the moment?
On a normal day, not during a rush.
Do you run Black Friday or Cyber Monday promotions?
Promo weekends concentrate a big share of Q4 into a few days.
Last Q4, did orders ever go out later than you wanted?
Backlogs, or turning off ads to cope.
03
What you expect from Q4
We suggest a starting point from your category. Change it to whatever you think.
%
100% means Q4 runs at double a normal month.
%
On top of the seasonal lift. Leave it at 0 if you are running flat.
Fill in every field and answer the three questions, then try again.
