Pumpkin Spice Will Make You Rich Before 2026: How I Made $40K in 2 Months in Fall 2024 

Every September, I can feel the shift. The air gets cooler, the leaves turn golden, and Starbucks starts serving its famous Pumpkin Spice Latte. But for me, it's more than just cozy vibes - it's the season that changed my business forever.

Back in fall 2024, I decided to test a theory: could I build a real business just by leaning into seasonal content? I went all in - creating articles, TikToks, and Instagram reels about pumpkin spice. Then I packaged my recipes into a digital guide and sold it online.

The result? \$40,000 in just two months.

That pumpkin spice guide turned into a mini business practically overnight. I wasn't shipping products, holding inventory, or dealing with warehouses. It was all digital - and all scalable.

Seasonal content isn't just a trend; it's an opportunity machine.

 Let me break down five ways you can cash in on pumpkin spice and other seasonal trends - without ever touching a physical product:

1. Sell Pumpkin Spice Digital Guides & Recipes

This was my biggest win. I bundled cozy pumpkin-themed recipes into a simple PDF guide and marketed it as the ultimate "fall kitchen essential." People loved it because it was easy, instant, and delivered that seasonal vibe they were craving.

E-books, recipe guides, digital planners - these are high-margin, evergreen (or should I say ever-fall) products that sell fast.

2. Seasonal Printables & Templates

Platforms like Etsy are perfect for seasonal digital products. Think: pumpkin-themed planners, cozy fall wallpapers, Canva templates for social media, or printable art with seasonal quotes. Low effort, instant delivery, high reward.

 3. Create Viral TikTok & Reels Content

Pumpkin spice is a social media superstar. Every fall, TikTok explodes with PSL taste tests, cozy home hauls, and pumpkin-flavored everything.

I used this to funnel traffic straight to my digital recipe guide. People watched, clicked, and bought  because the content was already trending.

4. Run Seasonal Affiliate Campaigns

Affiliate marketing is digital gold. You can promote pumpkin spice creamers, candles, baking mixes, or even fall-themed courses and earn a commission. Pair affiliate links with content (blogs, TikToks, YouTube Shorts), and you've got a passive income engine.

5. Host Seasonal Mini-Courses or Workshops

Here's a level-up move: create a digital course or workshop around a seasonal theme. For example, a "Fall Content Bootcamp" for creators, or a "Holiday Baking with Pumpkin Spice" online class.

Seasonal urgency drives sign-ups because people know the moment won't last.

Why Seasonal Content Works

Pumpkin spice showed me something bigger: people buy into rituals, nostalgia, and vibes. They don't just want coffee or candles - they want to feel part of the season.

That's why my \$40K pumpkin spice business worked - it tapped into what people were already obsessed with. If you can do that with one seasonal trend, you can rinse and repeat all year long.

🚀 Your Next Move

You don't need a massive following or fancy tech to pull this off. You just need the right strategy and the courage to start before the season passes you by.

That's exactly what I teach inside my 90-Day Accelerator Program - where I help entrepreneurs hit \$10K a month with their digital business in 90 days. Seasonal content is just one of the systems we'll use to get you there.
