Happy 50th episode! Liz Wilcox — the Fresh Princess of Email Marketing — is celebrating this milestone by giving you a strategic, no-fluff episode on the three essential emails every Black Friday campaign needs. Whether you're selling digital products, services, or physical goods, these emails will help you stand out in a crowded inbox and make your Black Friday campaign your best one yet.
The difference between showing up with a solution instead of just a sale.
Email #1: The Video Walkthrough — show your audience exactly how your product works and what makes it valuable.
Why video helps your emails stand out among static, text-heavy promotions.
Email #2: The Pattern Interrupt — use storytelling or humor to surprise your reader and grab attention.
A full example of a "pattern interrupt" email written for Kit, showing how to blend storytelling with a promo.
Email #3: The Clicked-But-Didn't-Buy Downsell — follow up with subscribers who clicked your Black Friday link but didn't purchase.
How to use testimonials, FOMO, and urgency to make a follow-up email convert.
Why these three emails make your Black Friday campaign more intentional and effective.
Use video to connect: Show your product in action to increase trust and engagement.
Break the pattern: Use storytelling, personality, or humor to cut through inbox noise.
Follow up strategically: A simple downsell email can capture buyers who hesitated the first time.
Stand out by serving: Approach your campaign with solutions and sincerity — not just sales pressure.
Stay consistent: Keep showing up with creativity and purpose throughout your campaign.
