Happy Black Friday week everyone! In today’s episode we are diving in on the day-to-day tactics and operations our teams will be using this weekend to optimize performance during one of the most crucial sales periods of the year - Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
We’re discuss the shift from pre-sale planning to sale operations, covering our real-time data analysis plans, ad spend and budget allocation, our marketing mix during this time, the cadence of our BFCM newsletters, handling inventory challenges, how we react if things don’t go as planned and much more.
