3 Insanely Effective Black Friday Retail Promotion Strategies

Can you believe it’s only 1 month until Christmas? You may have noticed flashy e-mails and loud commercials displaying multiple retail promotion strategies for Black Friday. Black Friday (typically in the USA), is acknowledged as the first official day of Christmas shopping. To celebrate, retailers offer consumers special offers, and Canada has recently joined the celebration.

As a shopping mall with multiple sales and promotional offers, it’s important to keep your consumer as happy as possible. With crowds, lines, and an overwhelming selection, shoppers can become easily flustered. Alleviate their stress (so they can continue to shop!) with these 3 successful strategies.

3 Retail Promotion Strategies to Please Your Consumer

Why is your shopping mall the ultimate Black Friday shopping destination? Because you’ve got contests, prizes, and great deals from the best retailers! As you read this blog post, we dare you to resist the Black Friday temptation.

Exciting, Easy to Win Contests

Our Vancouver events staff are assisting with several Black Friday Promotions. They will be at the following shopping centres: Northland Village Mall, Mayfair Shopping Mall & Metropolis at Metrotown. Each shopping mall has something different to offer their consumers.

We love the live, onsite contest hosted by  Kool 101.5 at Northland Village Mall Nov. 25th. Tigris brand ambassadors will be strolling the mall and anchor tenants, interacting with shoppers and encouraging them to fill out an entry ballot. There are 5 prizes to be won! Winners will receive a $100 gift card to the retailer of their choosing. At 1:45pm Kool 101.5 will do a live prize draw, onsite at Center Court.

A live, onsite contest is a great strategy to excite consumers. In addition, it keeps shoppers in the mall for a longer period of time – they can’t leave without hearing the results!
