I will rely on my own 15+ years of sales experience (and statistics).
Oh - and contacting the Biller to ask how OTHER companies' sales are going through the Biller...yeah that will happen. LOL "Everything is great!" would be the useless answer. Besides, would you want a Biller revealing your sales info to another client?
Man January is bringing out the stupid this year.  |
PornNerd, My previous statement didn't suggest that billers would inform you about other businesses. Instead, I indicated that your processor could provide information about whether your situation is typical or not.
You mentioned relying on your own 15+ years of experience in sales and statistics. However, this approach has a flaw. Despite accumulating over a decade and a half of experience, it essentially offers you a sample size of just one porn site (or just one porn company, or just one porn producer, you). In simpler terms, your perspective is based solely on the statistics of a single company or person, rather than drawing insights from multiple businesses (a larger and more diverse sample). In contrast, TheLegacy by default, possesses a larger dataset on pornsite traffic and sales than you do, and therefore, his opinion may matter more than yours. You can learn from him. Even experts can learn from other experts my friend.
Additionally, if you've been collecting statistics for 15 years, you may have observed a historical pattern of sales slumping in January. With this information, you could make informed predictions that each January will likely be slower. Why not take proactive measures to prepare for it? If your website traffic decreases, consider implementing strategies to boost it such as improved SEO, or Paid traffic, or even some crappy Twitter traffic. Similarly, if your sales drop, you could contemplate offering special promotions or discounts to counteract the downturn, couldn't you? Offer 2 months for the price of one, and call it the "January Sales Sucks Special".
Peace.
