Top Holiday Incentives
81% of holiday sales are influenced by promotions Deloitte, 2019
1. Price Discounts
2. Free Shipping (most abandoned carts result from high shipping fees or long delivery times)
3. Buy One, Get One
4. Cash Back and/or Earn Rewards
5. Free Gift with Purchase
6. Bundling
PROMOTIONS
Bundling Historically, this was the time of year when people would purchase expensive items (computers, TVs, furniture, etc.) that they normally wouldn't purchase at other times
Brands with lower AOV take the same approach by bundling cheaper products into "all-in-one", "getting started" kit, or “complete the look” package
● Bundles are often used to increase AOV● Bundles can create greater perceived savings ● Bundles can introduce your customers to new
products or product categories by including samples or free branded gifts as stocking stuffers
PROMOTIONS
Discounting 47% of consumers would try a new brand if given a discount
● Tiered Discounting - for each increase in price range, earn a
larger reward or discount
● Refer a Friend - introduce one of your friends to earn a discount
on next purchase and/or chance to win a prize
● Daily Deals - create a promotion on a single day for a specific
product or category to increase urgency

Site Abandonment
Using Klaviyo’s web tracking, we can trigger a flow when someone is Active on Site but didn’t view a product, start a checkout, or purchase.
Site Abandoners may be searching for deals or browsing really quickly.

SMS can be a great tool to get a subscribers attention.
