A Gulf Coast hospitality brand was spending the same ad budget in January as July. Same audiences. Same creative. Same bids. They were burning cash in the off-season and leaving money on the table during peak.

Seasonal businesses need seasonal ad strategy. That sounds obvious, but most PPC agencies set up campaigns once and let automated bidding "handle" the fluctuations. The result: overspending during low-demand months when conversion rates are naturally lower, and underspending during peak months when every dollar has maximum impact. The annual budget might look reasonable, but the monthly allocation is backwards.

We restructured the account around seasonality. Off-season budgets cut to maintenance levels with retargeting-only campaigns to stay visible. Pre-season budgets increased with intent-based keywords targeting early planners. Peak season budgets maximized with aggressive scaling on proven audiences. Real ROAS across the year went from 2.3x to 4.1x — same total annual spend, dramatically better allocation.
