couple of suggestions:

1) if something isn't working, explain what's not working about it :)
2) <cfset threeMonthsAgo = dateAdd('m', -3, now()) />  <-- no need for
dateFormat() there.  only format a date if you're displaying it.
3) i don't believe there's any benefit to using cfqueryparam in a
query of queries.  it's not like there's the possibility of SQL
injection, nor do i think there'd be any inherent performance
benefits.
