Leveraging the Q4 kit for your team
Our Q4 kit isn’t one-size-fits-all, and how a marketer uses it will differ from a sales manager. Teams can cherry-pick what they need from the kit at different stages throughout the quarter and customize the templates to fit in with their workflow.
Marketing
In Q4 marketers are working against seasonality, and the over-saturated holiday deals, while trying to push forward successful end-of-year campaigns. The Q4 kit packages up a curated bundle of templates and Beautiful.ai features to help marketers align on Q4 campaign efforts, collaborate on strategies, share mood boards for holiday campaigns, and identify marketing opportunities for Q1 to start 2025 off in a more impactful way.
Our favorite tools in the Q4 kit for marketers:

Sales
Q4 is the last quarter of the year, which means sales managers have a quarterly and annual quota to keep in mind.
