As Alicia Thomas of Klaviyo says \u201cThe more you segment and target emails, the more revenue you will generate for each recipient. You&#8217;ll also see higher open rates, and higher click-through rates \u2014 helping you build and maintain a strong sender reputation,\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can segment email lists like this,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">seasonal buyers\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">product browsers<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Geographic Targets<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And this is just an example your email lists must depend on your business need.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3-Make all your efforts to meet customer delivery expectations.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is an important tip to offer an easy way to deliver and return packages. If it is not simple and fast, the purchase process will likely fail.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>4-Inform your shipping policies clearly<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the Black Friday period, it is very necessary, to be honest, and accurate with customers when it comes to delivering the products they have ordered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be clear, and tell your customers of shipping rates and methods. Present a clear shipping policy that ensures the customer knows how long delivery can take during current conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>5-Use Product reviews to Increase your sales on Black Friday.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Something that almost all online shoppers do is research before they make a purchase, by collecting information about the product they want to buy. Reading user experiences, product reviews and ratings is part of the buying decision.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So ask for feedback, take advantage of it, and you&#8217;ll get more honest feedback from your customers. Both good and bad. When you get feedback, you can work on it and improve it. You get to choose: No feedback and fewer sales, or learn from feedback and sell more.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>6- Consider running an Influencer campaign<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Influencers can enhance your brand, drive more sales, and directly reach your target audience in a way that was not possible before. Influencers campaign will help you enhance word of mouth about specials. Choosing influencers should align with your business goal and sector, not just influencers with high follower counts.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>7-Make sure your website is ready.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure your site is ready for Black Friday by checking for potential errors. Check if the site can handle the expected traffic during the entire event.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>8- Focus on offering a good customer experience.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Good customer service is no longer extra, it&#8217;s crucial to making good sales.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ensure that customer service can handle all questions about your products or services that your customers may have. And deliver the best customer journey.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s not long till the season start, so there\u2019s no better time than the present to start planning your marketing initiatives.
