The essential 2023 BFCM preparations – connect online to offline
Retailers run marketing campaigns on a range of platforms. These are ‘budget hungry’ but help expand the reach, engagement, and ultimately sales. A successful and solid campaign strategy is integrating both online and offline data. It is essential, especially when trying to capture millennials and female shoppers.
In fact, combining the online and offline worlds is key to understanding the entire customer journey throughout the whole year and specifically for BFCM.
Your marketing campaign will have to stand out – but how?
Advertising around Black Friday is a challenge. Given the marketing overload and noise during that period, many retailers struggle to stand out, and to shoppers, all ads look the same.
Access your in-store data
Understanding shopper behavior and spending habits is the key to personalization. With 80% of purchases taking place in-store, an in-depth analysis of shopper behavior is difficult, and retailers often rely on their eCommerce data only.
