(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nAdults fueled $13.5 billion in Halloween spending through the rise of 'Adultoween,' reshaping home decor, food, and beverage categories, per Modern Retail.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): take any seasonal holiday you sell into (Valentine's, Easter, back-to-school) and bundle it for an older audience. Add a premium tier: Halloween doesn't mean kids' costumes — it means hosting, decorating, premium cocktails. Create a kit or a collection aimed at adults entertaining adults. You'll displace single-item sales with multi-item bundles. The category expanded because someone bundled the whole experience, not just one product.\nWhat that means for you: Adultoween is what happens when brands stop thinking of a holiday as a single use case. Halloween became a season for entertaining, decor, entertaining drinks. If you're in CPG, home, or gifts, you should be looking at every holiday and asking: what does the adult version look like? The number proves there's room.\nIf you make, sell, or gift anything with your name on it — this is yours to run. You can do this.\n(Real, not theory — Modern Retail: https://www.modernretail.co/marketing/the-rise-of-adultoween-and-how-adults-are-driving-halloween-spending/?utm_campaign=modernretaildis&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=general-rss.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
