In this episode, I share my 5 out-of-the-box tips for your best holiday ever. I have a few other episodes about holiday planning and marketing, #97 and #138 if you’d like to check those out as well.

Ep. #97: https://joyjoya.com/planning-jewelry-ecommerce-for-holiday-2020/
Ep. #138: https://joyjoya.com/holiday-jewelry-marketing/

I won’t be repeating any of that content in this episode, so I suggest you review those as a primer. Here’s a summary of the out-of-the-box tips I’ll be covering:

– Create a proprietary holiday or special event
– Think about giftable bundles, upsells, and cross-sells
– Forget discounting for BFCM – surprise and delight instead
– Add direct mail to the mix
– Update and add to your top-of-funnel content
