Why Some Brands Depend 80%on Holiday Sales While Others Less Than 1%, Holiday Shopping Report

The conventional wisdom is clear: for many retail brands, Q4 is everything. Success is measured by performance between Black Friday and Christmas. But our RB Insights 2025 Holiday Shopping Report, powered by Particl data, reveals a far more nuanced reality.
