Quitters' Day: Marketing Insights on New Year Resolutions

Every year, many people make New Year's resolutions like getting fit, eating healthier, or learning new skills.

But studies show that most people give up on these goals within a few weeks.

The second Friday of January is even called Quitters' Day because so many people stop trying.

However, there's also a Fighter's Week in the third week of January where some people push through.

Marketers can use this information to help people stick to their goals.

They can be honest about the challenges, help people set realistic goals, and show up at the right times to support them.

For example, a company called Cult starts its weight loss program on January 17th, right when people's resolve starts to wobble.

This shows that understanding when and how to support people can make a big difference in helping them achieve their goals.
