Maximizing Email Impact for Black Friday and Cyber Monday

To optimize the effectiveness of email campaigns during Black Friday and Cyber Monday, consistency in messaging is vital. Many customers may only open one email during this busy shopping season, making it crucial to deliver clear and repetitive messaging, such as the discount offer. Research indicates that a significant portion of users typically open just one email and make a purchase from it, emphasizing the need to target the first-time openers. This strategy entails sending the same core message repeatedly across multiple emails to effectively reach new and unengaged customers who might otherwise overlook the offers.
