What do we notice nowadays? People ask for a calendar in the store of their choice. But those who ask for a calendar will only be given to repeat buyers. Those calendar makers-printers can benefit much during Christmas time starting from September, those calendar makers/ suppliers already have a thousand copies of calendars. They are going to supply different stores and establishments calendars big, and small. They also print wallet calendars and a yearly planner. If you are late to do this, you can have it next year.

I doubt if it is still a lucrative business because people have calendar in their smartphones. Moreover, year planner is still available in smartphones. I don't think is still a lucrative business again

It's a lucrative business for big stores especially in locality give their loyal customers big calendars, then in their calendar printed name of their businesses. Even on pharmacies they give calendars to their buyers regardless of the amount bought in the drug store, rice wholesalers, bookstores, and more pay printing services to print calendars.

In my location, it used to be a good business but not anymore. A lot of people have calendars on their phones so some people may feel like they don't need it

Not all like to glance at a calendar in watch especially the old people and those having businesses they're always guided with dates. Only young people like to glance calendar in a watch.

@Shavkat , I asked Mercury drug yesterday, but they said, the printing services they catered are not yet done printing the calendars Philipponewide. How lucky is the printing business owner?

Calendar making will never die because it serves as a thank-you gift for customers for patronizing their store. Those stores, pharmacies, and egg whole sellers for example are the ones requesting and paying those calendar makers. Of course, good profit for the calendar makers.

This is good for big stores like what you have said. It can be a good business for printing press for the new year since there will be lots of stores to ask their service in printing plus they can advertise their business through calendar.

Another is printing a calendar that can fit planners for travelers or business-minded people or those who like journaling.

This business is a seasonal business. It only thrives at the beginning of a year. Printers can cash out from this axis that period
Yup, you got it. But I hope the income at the start of the year can cover at least 2 or 3 months income. But I doubt as many establishments don't do this anymore. Their customers want other stuff for free at the beginning of the year. Just like the store in my village, instead of calendar, they gave umbrella to customers as a giveaway this holiday.

You have a very valid point because it is a seasonal business the reason is that it is not available all year round and you could only do it during festivities which makes it makes it a less attractive form of investment.

The point you raised is pivotal but it is necessary to always nice to know that this type of business may be seasonal but it is lucrative if you understand how to market your product critically.

That is true printing press printing the calendars profit more on this kind of business. Big companies approached them to print calendars for their big time customers. It's a one time profit for printing presses.

It is one of the best investment that you would want to try out because there are people who are making money from this because I've seen record number of them in my area here.
