BFCM Challenge Bank: TYB Tuesday to Holiday
Turn TYB Tuesday and BFCM into your biggest engagement window of the year, and carry that momentum from Prime Day through the holidays. Use the Challenge Bank to keep your community shopping, sharing, and coming back all season.
Overview
Your biggest sales stretch of the year doesn't start and end with Black Friday and Cyber Monday, it runs from Prime Day and Halloween all the way through the holidays. This Challenge Bank is broken into three sections so you always have ready made Challenges on hand, no matter where you are in the calendar.
- October warms your community up with Prime Day deal hunting energy and Halloween fun
- November is your biggest moment, kicked off by TYB Tuesday and carrying straight through Black Friday and Cyber Monday
- December shifts into gifting, gratitude, and closing out the year with your most engaged members
- Every Challenge uses [BRAND] and [Product A/B/C/D] placeholders, so you can drop in your own products and post in minutes
