Home/Posts/EPM Print/October Focus: Seasonal Print Needs for Your Business

October is one of the most exciting months on the business calendar.

It sits at the crossroads of spring, event season, and the lead-up to Christmas, giving businesses countless opportunities to connect with customers and stand out. The key? Having the right print materials ready to go. At EPM Print Group, we know October is the month where smart planning pays off.

Here are the major print opportunities to focus on this month:

 

🎃 Halloween Promotions

Halloween is no longer just an American tradition—it’s become a retail and hospitality favourite here too. Themed print helps you create atmosphere and drive engagement.

  • Retail: Posters, flyers, and spooky window decals to grab attention.
  • Hospitality: Halloween menus, table tents, or drink specials.
  • Giveaways: Branded stickers or packaging for lollies, treats, or promotional items.
🏇 Spring Racing Carnival

With the racing season in full swing, print materials are essential for both corporate and hospitality events.

  • Invitations & Programs: Set the tone for race-day events.
  • Hospitality Print: Signage, table cards, and promotional banners.
  • Corporate Gifting: Custom-printed boxes, wrapping, and greeting cards for VIP clients.
🎪 School & Community Events

October is packed with spring fairs, fetes, and fundraisers. Print gives these events a professional, organised edge.

  • Tickets & Programs: Raffle tickets, event programs, and wristbands.
  • Signage: Directional signs, banners, and entry posters.
  • Merchandise: Branded giveaways that boost exposure and community support.
🎄 Early Christmas & Holiday Prep

It may feel early, but businesses that prepare their holiday print in October get ahead of the December rush.

  • Christmas Cards & Calendars: Perfect for client gifting.
  • Retail Collateral: Seasonal catalogues, brochures, and product tags.
  • Point-of-Sale Displays: Eye-catching signage for gift ideas and festive promotions.
🌼 General Spring Refresh

Spring is the season of renewal—making it the perfect time to update your everyday print.

  • Menus, Brochures & Price Lists: Fresh new designs that reflect the season.
  • Outdoor Signage: Banners, flags, and A-frames for spring promotions.
  • Branded Essentials: Stationery, uniforms, and lanyards to give your team a polished look.
