Fashion brands saw significant jumps in traffic (88.9%), as well as a 89.96% uplift in conversion last year, as shoppers piled their carts high with sale items rather than opting for discounts on one or two pricier pieces. The real opportunity for retailers here is winning over these impulse deal-hunters with smart merchandising and personalization strategies.
The majority of home decor shoppers prefer using desktop when purchasing. In fact, conversion rates were 3X higher on desktop than mobile, so offering an enhanced shopper experience on desktop is key.
Of these three verticals, jewelry brands saw the biggest spike in traffic and conversion over BFCM 2020. Jewelry shoppers are typically after a single high-ticket wishlist item, so it’s critical to ensure they can find that piece or similar ones before they bounce off-site to a competitor.
