Stop treating email and ads like divorced parents...
Truths you need to hear
What's up,
BFCM is literally only three weeks away…
And 90% of brands treat email and paid ads like divorced parents who refuse to talk.
This lazy approach is costing you at least 40% in performance during Black Friday, maybe more.
If you're heading into BFCM with siloed channels, you're leaving massive revenue on the table.
Here's how email and ads should actually work together:
1) Paid ads grow your list
Add email capture to every conversion ad.
Set exit-intent popups on paid traffic pages.
Create BFCM-specific lead magnets for your ad audiences.
Track email signups alongside purchases in your ad reporting.
2) Email data improves targeting
Upload customer segments to Meta monthly.
Build lookalikes from your highest-value email subscribers.
Feed purchase events directly into your pixel.
Segment audiences by 30/60/90 day purchase behavior heading into November.
3) Email reduces ad pressure
Build automated sequences that convert cold subscribers.
Use email revenue to fund aggressive BFCM ad testing.
Create backup income streams independent of ad performance.
Test risky Black Friday strategies with an email safety net.
4) Lead-Gen ads build lists cheap
Run $2-3 lead gen campaigns now.
Collect emails with BFCM pre-sale hype campaigns.
Build engagement audiences through video views.
Retarget email lists with specific Black Friday product sequences.
Stop treating these channels like separate businesses when integration drives exponentially better results.
If your email and ad accounts aren't feeding each other data and building backup revenue streams, you're not ready for BFCM.
