Thanksgiving Week: Simple Strategy Guide for Models
Many of your U.S. viewers will be traveling or busy with family during Thanksgiving week.
This means some days will have less traffic, and some nights will have more.
This guide explains everything in simple English, easy to translate, and easy to use.
What Is Thanksgiving?
- A major U.S. holiday
- Date in 2025: November 27
- Millions of people travel or stay with family
- Many sleep in hotels or guest rooms
- Viewers have less privacy during the day, more privacy late at night
What You Need to Know (Very Simple)
✔ Daytime → fewer viewers
People are with family.
✔ Late night → more viewers
People finally get privacy.
✔ Sunday night → very strong traffic
People return home and relax online.
Best Times to Stream
1. Wednesday Night (Nov 26)
Best: 11 PM–3 AM ET
Many viewers are in hotels and bored.
2. Thursday Night (Nov 27)
Best: After 11 PM ET
After family events, viewers want quiet, private time.
3. Sunday Night (Nov 30) — VERY GOOD
Best: 8 PM–1 AM ET
Viewers are back home and comfortable.
Times to Avoid
- Thursday afternoon/evening (12 PM–9 PM ET)

If you stream during these times, keep it short (30–45 minutes).
What You Should Do
✔ Save energy for late-night shows
Late-night = higher privacy for your viewers.

Example:
“This week I will be live late at night (U.S. time). Many viewers travel, so late-night shows will work best.”

Short videos and photos for mobile viewing.

- Relaxation
- Stress escape
- Comfort and support
