Black Friday Ecommerce Checklist: 13 Steps to Crush Last Year's Revenue

Black November is here! I hope you all crush your revenue goals this month.

Here’s my Black Friday eCommerce checklist to help prepare:

✅ Save fresh ads for later in the month (avoid creative fatigue).

✅ Make sure “sale price” is showing in all of your data feeds.

✅ Stagger your promotions to promote scarcity.

✅ Add a countdown timer to key landing pages.

✅ Open discounts to your most valuable customers first.

✅ Offer bundles to increase order values.

✅ Launch your ads early (approvals can take longer this month).

✅ Send a genuine thank you to your customers/clients.

✅ Promote early gifting by communicating shipping cutoffs.

✅ Offer extended holiday returns to reduce hesitation.

✅ Comb through your conversion funnel for bugs.

✅ Test all web browsers (don’t forget in-app Safari).

✅ Engage previous purchasers with cross & up-sells.

Thanks for tunning in for another growth marketing read! Best of luck with your sales this month. Reach out if you have any questions along the way.

Happy testing!
