The Pressure of Q4
October to December—better known as Q4—overflows with major events and seasonal holidays, driving a surge in client demands for media execution services.
For independent agencies handling these services, this means facing heightened workloads, tighter deadlines, and complex campaign management tasks—all under the pressure of larger budgets and a fiercely competitive ad space.
Instead of enjoying the season’s fun and magic, agency teams must work extra hours to meet these Q4 client expectations. They are even cracking open their laptops during holidays and family gatherings and, perhaps worst of all, having to explain to confused relatives why digital media demands so much attention.
This reality has made independent agency teams view Q4 as a grueling gauntlet that awaits them. But at Pathlabs, we know it doesn’t have to be this way.
