November Analysis
Overall, sales on 11-11 were significantly lower than in 2019. However, this statistic by itself is misleading. In fact, sales
during November were higher in 2020 than the previous year. This is likely a result of brands moving from treating 11-11
as a single sales day to spreading their discounts and promotions out throughout the month, creating a more relaxed
and less frantic sales period. Possibly a response to discontent among some shoppers who had stayed up until midnight
to grab the best deals and still found their desired items sold out instantly! At any rate, spreading out the sales period
throughout the month (with November 1st now a particular focus for some) gives smaller brands more space to stand
out, and gives consumers more time to compare prices and consider purchases.
For the most part, our featured top brands saw sales growth compared to last year, though iSDG (featured in June’s data
pack) saw its sales drop to closer to its June sales figures. Doppelherz, the other brand we featured in June but not this
month, saw only a minor increase compared to 2019. One of our newly featured brands, FanCL, in fact saw a sales peak
on November 16th, showing that sales success is possible with a strategy focused away from the main event on the 11th.
Two of the fastest growing products of the month also cracked the top five in total sales, Swisse’s High Strength
Cranberry extract, and Princess Luna’s Vaginal Probiotic. Both represent new product categories for the top five, but
this month it is NAD+ anti-aging products that were the real winners, with three of the top five belonging to that category.
The mainstay categories from the past four months - Calcium and Vitamin D supplements - did not make an appearance.
It is also worth noting that overall sales revenue didn’t peak in November this year. In fact, unlike the previous year, there
was a bit of an overall dip in revenue. This may be because health supplements aren’t among the main product categories
that consumers are interested in during the sales festival, or that most major brands aren’t pushing their products as hard
during this period as brands in other industries.
