Demand for insurance products and services generally exhibits seasonality. The insurance industry often experiences a decline in interest from late November through June, with searches rising from June through the end of fall. Sales in the first and fourth quarters are typically higher than in the second and third quarters. Demand for P&C insurance can surge due to weather events, the home-buying season, new vehicle releases, and construction season. Sign-ups for health plans typically surge in December. Insurance busy seasons are also driven by renewals, open enrollment periods, and lifestyle changes.
