2. Black Friday was undoubtedly one of the biggest discounting events the UK market has ever seen.

of discounts on offer for consumers was striking and those retailers choosing not to take part were
very much in the minority.

lessons that can be learnt from this year’s Black Friday…

3. Whether you are going to join in with Black Friday
fever or if you’d rather stick by your prices, it is
important to make your intentions known.
This way you can avoid angry shoppers taking to
social media to complain about buying full-priced
items only to find them discounted days later, or
have to manage a flurry of returns as consumers
buy the same item twice to take advantage of a
deal.

4. It was no surprise to see the percentage of online
retail sales made through mobiles continued to grow

5. Not all product categories are well-suited to heavy discounting
and so retailers must pick their battles wisely when it comes to
selecting which items to reduce. This year electricals were a clear
winner, with Sonos Play 1, GHD hair straighteners, Samsung TVs
and KitchenAid products all highlighted as bestsellers by John
Lewis.

new credit customers on Black Friday 2015 purchased from
the group again within 12 months. So make sure you

7. Offering days upon days of deals proved a popular choice
for retailers this year and it is clear to see why. Not only did
it please customers, giving them more discounts to choose
from and more time to buy, but it also led to an increase in
sales for retailers and, importantly, it helped spread
demand.
