Black Friday is coming. Therefore, we have created two guides to how you, as a business or an influencer, achieve success on the biggest trading day of the year.
The holiday season is often the busiest time of the year for DTC brands. Some consumers buy ahead of time and others tend to shop last-minute. With the rise of Black Friday, however, a majority of consumers begin their holiday shopping earlier than usual.
Every year, mobile shopping is increasing compared to desktop and offline sales in stores. With the influence of Covid 19, consumers have become even more inclined to do their shopping online.
According to Hubspot, consumers are 71% more likely to make a purchase if they have been referred through social media. For a lot of smaller brands, creating the same credibility surrounding their products as big brands can be extremely challenging, which is why we suggest using influencer marketing to increase revenue.
How brands adjust their eCommerce strategies around Black Friday and Christmas will greatly impact their annual bottom line - now more than ever. Based on the demand of how you as a business or an influencer best meet your partner and consumers strategically, tactically, and operationally, we have prepared these two guides to help you maximize your efforts on Black Friday.
