Things to keep in mind based on the trend

1. Do not create a stall period

The point that you need to be aware of is that there is a tendency mentioned above.Depending on the product, there is a reserve for BFCM announcements.is. In particular, the higher the price of the product, the higher the effects of the BFCM sales content, so the more you buy, the more likely you are to buy.

The important thing to excite BFCM here isDo not create a stall periodThat is. For example, the backpack brand "Away" is likely to keep the customer's attention by publishing a new backpack during the BFCM announcement period.

In addition, the handmade accessory brand "Waffless & Honey Jewelry" at the San Francisco base is called Flash Sale, and does not announce the details, but continuously sells the target products depending on the time and date. I was creating a state.

2. Driving on Cyber ​​Monday

It is also important to be able to excite the last day of the BFCM, Cyber ​​Monday, the favorite of the online store. There are the following measures examples.

ALO YOGA

Yoga wear brand "ALO YOGA". The pre -sale was held from the third week of November, and BFCM production was started on November 24. On the last day, Cyber ​​Monday, the site design will be changed so that you can see the product not only at the discount rate of up to 70%OFF but also at the specific price. It is an impression that it was devised to convey the content of the discount to the customer in an easy -to -understand manner.

Fanatics

"Fanatics", which handles sports equipment, has a discount rate by raising the discount rate near BFCM production, such as 30%OFF for 48H only and 48H only on November 25, as of November 24. It was exciting. Also, like Alo Yoga, Cyber ​​Monday had 70%OFF.

Cole Haan

The lifestyle brand "COLE HAAN" has been offering 50%off as pre -sale since mid -November, but on the last day of BFCM, Cyber ​​Monday added 70%OFF and added 10%OFF in "TheBest" Code. Implemented a discount. It is the impression that a bold discount was launched as the last catch of BFCM sale.

In this way, there was a brand that takes measures for the last day of the BFCM, so sales at 7 PM-11PM (PST) near the end of Cyber ​​Monday.It was $ 2.7 billion, which accounted for 25%of the total sales on the same day.It is said that.

Although it is not Cyber ​​Monday, some brands have a surprise approach.

H2O+

"H2O+", which handles skin care products, also holds pre -sales for only e -mail magazine members. In addition, I gained momentum by improving the BFCM sales production discounts better than pre -sales. In addition to these, unlike the above brands, "Surprise", which extended the sale for only one day on December 1, the next day of Cyber ​​Monday, was announced on Instagram. Even if the sale period is extended, you may be able to get the customer attention again by giving a surprise feeling instead of just to set the sale end date to 12/1.
