Session overview
There are three big campaigns in a youth marketer’s year: Back to School, Festive, and of course, Black Friday and Cyber Monday. In this exclusive webinar, we’ll be diving into the world of Black Friday and Cyber Monday (BFCM).
Black Friday and Cyber Monday are two of the biggest sales events of the year. Previously day-long affairs, BFCM has now become a week-long shopping bonanza for those looking to save some serious pennies.
For brands, it’s the perfect opportunity to generate sales, increase revenue, and create a sense of urgency. For Gen Z, it’s heaven.
In this virtual session, we’ll be diving deep into the world of BFCM and Gen Z, exploring the topics that are on every marketer’s mind, from how to grab Gen Z’s attention (and spend) in an oversaturated market to the impact of inflation.
Packed with new data from Pion, as well as a panel of marketing experts, this is set to be an unmissable session.
