Tip 1:

Determine the Right Incentives.

Especially in the months leading up to your biggest promotion period, it’s helpful to understand which incentive types work best for your consumers

Try running tests which show similar values of discounts in different formats.
Tip 1 continued:

If your AOV is $50, try running a 10% off coupon against a $5 off coupon.

Try offering tiered incentives to see if you can drive up AOV:

10% off orders $60 and less

15% off orders $61-$99

20% off orders over $100
Tip 1 continued:

Assess results of whether your tests were successful in increasing AOV, or if one type of discount is more effective at driving conversions
Tip 2:

From @heydeetee

Don't sleep on plain text emails.

Personalization in email marketing is a smart move and nothing says personal like a plain text email.

Find a way to incorporate them into your campaigns.

Tip 3:

From @daverodenbaugh

At the end of the shipping deadlines, all you have left to promote and get to someone on time is gift cards. Starting around Dec 15, make sure you switch up your flows to start doing this.
Tip 4:

From @daverodenbaugh

Day after Xmas is a great time to send promos about gift cards!

Subject lines like:

Didn't get what your want?

Santa missed your house this year?

or similar work well bc everyone is back on their phones looking for something to buy/substitute
Tip 5

From @daverodenbaugh

A great offer to help increase AOV and LTV:

Buy one, gift one!

One for you and one for someone on your list.

Sounds better than the standard BOGO offer
Tip 5.5:

Tip 6:

From @daverodenbaugh

Use emojis to stand out in crowded inboxes from BFCM.

The favorite one I've seen is this one: Image
Tip 7:

From @daverodenbaugh

Do a product drop on BFCM instead of just a promotion.

@bandholz from @Beardbrand did that and the exclusivity drove his customers wild: Image
Tip 8:

From @CalvinMomentum

eCommerce brand owners should create a private Facebook group in September. Then they invite the high-engaged segments to join this group starting in October.

Content for the emails:
- Tell your customers: “Your inbox will be flooded with emails in
Tip 8 continued:

From @CalvinMomentum

the upcoming months. We want to make sure you’ll receive the best personalized deals. Join this Facebook group to get exclusive access.”

- Tell your customers: “We’ll feel guilty if we can’t have these top-notch items in your. Join this
Tip 8 continued:

FB group so you’ll be the 1st to know about our best discounts.”

Tip: Use urgency & say that only the first 1k members will be accepted. If you’re too late, you’ll have to wait til next year.

Now you have your best customers in a group for the rest of Q4.
Tip 8.5:

Tip 9:

From @Pranowornever

Offer site-wide automatic discounts (no coupon required) and sell the "easy" buying experience in the campaigns...
Tip 10:

From @Pranowornever

Have 2 post-purchase flows ready,

One to offer additional discounts to those who buy once.

And the other to send to repeat buyers.

At the end of both flows - tease the audience for what's to come during the holiday sale...
Tip 11:

From @Pranowornever

Slip a "Thank you" note in the product package with a discount code that's valid throughout the holiday season. Then use that TY note as an anchor in the holiday campaigns sent to those who bought a product during the BFCM sale.
Tip 12:

From @kanika_misra

Use dedicated landing pages for BFCM ad/emails.

Make sure that your messaging/offer in your ads/emails carries over seamlessly to the LPs.

This will create a 1,2-punch for your customers so they can get everything they need & checkout in a snap.
Tip 13:

From @Cody_Wittick

Negotiate deals now or pay 2x the price later.

Think deep and wide for BFCM.

Deep: YouTube integrations

Wide: seeding product with an special unboxing experience
Tip 14:

From @Dennardcrawford

Email tip 🔥

During Black Friday/ Cyber use a conditional split to change up your emails without cloning a new flow. Image

My agency has generated $200M+ in sales for clients with copywriting.

Here are 10 quick copywriting hacks you can use to write high-converting copy:
1) Use comparisons:

People are wondering how you're better than your competitors.

Don't be afraid to tell them the truth.

Talk about how your product is:

- Better
- Faster
- Cheaper

Then what's already out there.
2) Reframe your price:

Don't just state the price of your product.

Instead, reframe it using comparisons.

Instead of saying "$9/month" say "Less than 3 lattes/month".

It will make your product seem cheaper than it actually is.

Flows are the highest-converting emails your brand will ever send.

Yet most brands are barely scratching the surface.

Here are 8 flows you need to be sending:

BOOKMARK THIS.
1. Welcome Flow:

Goal: Convert new subscribers into first-time customers

Tips:

- Send the first email immediately
- Start with your strongest product and top 3 benefits
- Place the offer before the first scroll ends
- Use emails 2 and 3 to answer objections and show proof

And here's a subject line you can test:

"Your 15% off code + why 34,238 people love us"
2. Abandoned Checkout Flow:

Goal: Recover high-intent customers who started checkout

Tips:

- Trigger 30 to 60 minutes after checkout is abandoned
- Include product image, price, and a clear CTA
- Keep copy short and human
- Use 2 to 3 follow-ups with increasing urgency

Email "Design" Tip:

Start with a plain-text email from a team member.
It often converts better than "branded" templates.

6 ecommerce storytelling examples you can use in your emails (that actually sell):

BOOKMARK THIS for your next campaign👇
But first, here's why storytelling matters in ecommerce:

1/ It builds emotional connection (beyond discounts)
2/ It helps customers remember your brand
3/ It differentiates you in crowded markets
4/ It makes your emails more engaging and less transactional

Use these 6 story types to drive real results:
1. The Founder Story:

Just like it sounds, this tells who is behind the brand and why they started it.

Example:

“Our founder quit her job at Google after a skin condition forced her to create a product that worked.”

When to use:

- Welcome series (Email 1 or 2)
- Post-purchase thank-you email
- Holiday/campaign emails with a personal note

Pro tip: End with a CTA that feels personal:

“Reply and tell us your story”
or
“Meet the product she created”
