With this in mind, here are 5 creative Black Friday Marketing Tactics. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>1. Use Catchy and <\/b><b>Concise<\/b><b> Creative<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yape shared, \u201cI\u2019ve seen a lot of ads where the brand puts everything you could possibly find out about the advertiser in the ad \u2013 the phone number, the address, the website. Nobody is going to write all that down. Instead, people will Google your brand name and figure you out from there.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Therefore, according to Yape, \u201cThe creative has to be catchy. You only have a small amount of time to capture their attention, so you don\u2019t want information overload. Just be sure to have a click-through that takes them directly to your website where they can learn more information.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>2. Promote Sales on Social Media\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Social media is a great way to reach Black Friday shoppers searching for the best deal. In addition to online promotions, you can promote your business\u2019s in-person specials through organic and sponsored posts. Make sure to use relevant hashtags to maximize your reach!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3. Partner with an Influencer<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to finding a last-minute gift, turning to a content creator\u2019s must-haves and specially curated lists are the way to go. With shoppers looking to cross off their holiday shopping lists with Black Friday deals, products backed and pre-selected by their favorite influencers are a great time-saving hack!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>4. Launch Multichannel Campaigns\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Taking a multichannel advertising approach is the way to maximize Black Friday sales. Consider using local <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tegna.com\/advertise\/solutions\/digital\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">digital<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tegna.com\/advertise\/solutions\/broadcast\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">broadcast<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> channels to reach viewers watching the morning news or catching up on local happenings online.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>5.
