End of Q3: Review Your Year-to-Date Medal Program 📊

Nine months of orders, returns, complaints, and compliments are in the data. Twenty minutes spent reviewing them this week tells you exactly what to change for the Q4 push.

Three Questions Worth Asking

Which medal designs got the most repeat orders? Which got returned or required reprints? Which suppliers consistently hit lead time and which slipped? Even rough scoring across those three lines surfaces the patterns that drive next year's planning. Most teams skip this step and wonder why the same problems recur.

What to Stock-Up Before October Ends

Q4 always spikes for school year-end ceremonies, corporate awards, and Christmas/New Year recognition. Top up: stock round medals (gold, silver, bronze in 50mm and 70mm), satin ribbon in school primary colors, blank brass engraving plates in standard sizes. RS Trophy's Q4 stock check report goes out free to existing clients next Monday.
