An interesting report came across my inbox from Pinterest.  Q5, or quarter 5, is what Pinterest calls the period between December 25 and December 31.  Their statistics show that 55% of weekly Pinterest users continue to buy online during those dates, and 45% continue to shop in-store.  A quick search shows that over 500 million people use Pinterest! Half of that is a substantial market.

Here are the hot buying categories according to the Pinterest report:

• Beauty products 
• Clothing/wearables 
• Home and office organization items
• Gardening 

Gardening is a surprise to me. Here in the Frozen North, aka Michigan, we typically start looking at seed catalogs in late January when we've had enough of the cold and ice.  However, I do start looking for organizing tips and products for my house and office as I vow to get organized.  

You can read the full report here.  

Do you use Pinterest for sales?  What is your sales strategy for Q5?

The USPS will increase shipping rates by 6.6 percent for Priority Mail, 5.1 percent for Priority Mail Express, 7.8 percent for USPS Ground Advantage, and 6 percent for Parcel Select. Effective January 18.  Click here to read more.
