Our goal with this client in the footwear niche was to sell as many units as possible while maintaining profitability, scaling aggressively during the high-demand Black Friday period. However, achieving this required careful navigation of potential challenges. With higher CPMs typical during busy shopping periods, we needed a strategy that accounted for rising ad costs while maximising returns. Additionally, stock management was a critical focus for our client to ensure they could meet the surge in demand without overcommitting inventory. Finally, providing exceptional customer support throughout this period was paramount to ensure a seamless shopping experience and build long-term customer trust.
Our success came from an aggressive omni-channel strategy that left no stone unturned. By leveraging paid advertising across Meta, Google, TikTok, and Snapchat, integrating email marketing to nurture and convert, and producing high-impact creatives to engage customers, we created a seamless and scalable funnel to dominate Black Friday sales.
We used a multi-platform strategy across Meta, Google, TikTok, and Snapchat to target high-intent shoppers at every stage of their journey. By testing multiple ad formats and leveraging data-driven optimizations, we scaled campaigns while maintaining a strong ROAS. Retargeting warm audiences was key to converting abandoned carts into sales.
We ran lead form ads in the weeks leading up to Black Friday to build a list of highly interested shoppers eager for the sale. This strategy allowed us to collect warm leads and nurture them through targeted email campaigns.
Using pre-sale hype emails, we built anticipation and teased exclusive offers. During the sale, segmented campaigns with personalised product recommendations drove urgency and conversions. Post-sale, follow-up emails re-engaged customers to maximise long-term value. This full-funnel email strategy was pivotal in driving significant revenue from an engaged audience.
