Huckberry Black Friday Email

Updated on
black-friday-2017-original-email

This Black Friday email nails every element of seasonal e-commerce marketing. It’s clean, bold, and built entirely around one clear goal: getting you to click “Shop Now.”

Why This Email Works

  • Visual hierarchy: Black and gold colors scream premium and urgency.
  • Curated picks: “Top 3 Deals” removes decision fatigue.
  • Scarcity cues: Phrases like “Our best deals of the year” crank up FOMO.
  • Product highlights: Each item gets its own spotlight—no clutter.
  • Smart segmentation: “Gifts for Him” and “Gifts for Her” make it easy to navigate.

Real Examples of This Strategy

  • Amazon’s “Today Only” deals double conversions during Cyber Week.
  • Huckberry’s segmented emails lift click-through rates by 27%.
  • REI’s “Gift Finder” page keeps shoppers on-site longer during holidays.
  • Patagonia’s limited-edition drops routinely sell out within hours.
