Longer days. Different routines. Out-of-office replies. Summer changes everything, including your customers’ behavior.
People shop at different hours, dine in new places, travel more (or less), and respond to different channels. The usual patterns of when, where, and how people buy can shift significantly. If your marketing is based on static segments or last year’s assumptions, you risk missing key moments of engagement.
The good news is that with a strong data strategy (and a Customer Data Platform like FLYDE) summer becomes an opportunity. You can fine-tune your segmentation, messaging, and timing to reach customers at the right moment, through the right channel, with offers that align with their seasonal behavior.
PREDICT WHAT’S NEXT WITH BEHAVIOR-BASED MODELS
Customer journeys are rarely linear. In summer, they’re even more unpredictable. FLYDE helps bring clarity to seasonal shifts by:
- Unifying real-time customer behavior across channels like web, email, mobile app, social media, and in-store POS systems.
- Applying predictive models to anticipate return likelihood, product preferences, or even travel planning windows.
- Segmenting audiences dynamically based on changes in browsing, booking, or purchase behavior.
Instead of reacting to changes after they happen, FLYDE allows you to anticipate them, so you’re always one step ahead.
HYPERPERSONALIZATION OF MESSAGING AND OFFERS
Seasonal relevance matters. Whether it’s travel planning or heatwave-driven impulse buys, being able to respond quickly makes the difference. With FLYDE, you can activate insights in real time to:
- Deliver personalized promotions based on forecasted demand and individual behavior.
- Reallocate ad spend dynamically when a campaign underperforms with specific segments.
- Automate email and advertising campaigns triggered by behavior, not just by a marketing calendar.
This means more relevant interactions, improved engagement rates, and smarter use of your marketing budget.
INDUSTRY IN FOCUS: HOTELS, RESTAURANTS, AND RETAIL
Hotels
A busy hotel could analyze in-stay guest behavior during the peak summer season. By unifying data from their app, restaurant bookings, spa services, etc., they can identify key patterns—such as which guests are most likely to book add-ons like late checkouts, poolside dining, or spa treatments. This allows them to activate targeted in-stay messaging tailored to each guest’s profile, promoting high-margin services at the optimal moment (for example, a post-check-in spa offer or late lunch promo after a pool reservation). As a result, they can expect to see not only an increase in revenue from add-ons but also higher satisfaction scores in post-stay surveys, which in turn can translate into more returning guests.
Restaurants
A high-traffic restaurant might notice that weekday lunch volume drop during the summer months, while evening and weekend group bookings rose. If they identify this pattern early, they can adjust their marketing strategy, and promote group dining offers around local events.
Retail
A fashion retailer may notice that in summer, browsing behavior shifts from desktop to mobile, particularly in the afternoons. Using the behavioral data available with a CDP, they can adapt campaign timing and creative formats to favor mobile-first formats in order to increase click-through and conversion rates.
