Editor's Notes
- #11 The holidays are incredibly important for retailers. The National Retail Federation predicts $466 billion to be spent this year on holiday shopping. This time of year represents an average of 19% of total annual sales, but for up to 40% for some retailers.The holidays include 61 days during November and December, 17% of the year. Retail industry sales include most traditional retail sales categories such as discount stores, department stores, grocers and specialty stores and exclude sales at automotive dealers, gas stations and restaurants. Online sales are tallied separately due to a lag in reporting by the Commerce Department.
- #19 Family tops the list for gifts this year. Consumers are equally as likely to shop for all segments. Advertisers should promote discounted items, smaller gifts to ‘spread the holiday spirit’.
- #29 Females 18-34 buy the greatest number of gifts, but spend significantly less overall than men of the same age.
- #35 In 2010, consumers proved to be more willing to interact with paid search advertising as Clicks, Click-Through-Rates, andConversion-Rates rose dramatically higher relative to impressions.As you can see in Figure 1, despite a 54% increase in the number of clicks on search ads during the 2010 Christmas season,we only saw a 1% increase in impressions. This means that retailers’ ads appeared about the same number of times as theydid in 2009. One explanation for this trend is that people aren’t turning to search engines more often when shopping.Instead of just trusting search engine algorithms to find the best products, consumers are turning to their social networks forrecommendations. Every day, more and more people query their family and friends on Facebook for advice on where to shopand what to buy.
- #36 In 2010, we saw that online consumers were less likely to load up their baskets all at once with the same retailer. Enticed byfree shipping and more online retailers to choose from, consumers spread their purchases across many sessions and/or stores.This is reflected in Figure 5 where you can see that, while total overall transaction volume increased, the value per transactiondecreased.
- #37 Another insight gleamed from the 2010 research is that U.S. consumers used the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, and ThanksgivingDay itself, as an early kick-off to shopping. Even before Black Friday sales began in the stores, consumers were scouring the webfor deals the night before.
- #38 In 2010, online advertisers dramatically increased their search marketing budgets over the previous year. In particular, advertisersmaintained higher spend levels throughout the two weeks leading up to Christmas as seen in Figure 7.
- #39 Higher search advertising budgets and increased competition among advertisers led to higher cost per click rates, especially onCyber Monday and the 2nd shopping week in Dec.
- #40 Despite more competition in the auction marketplace, higher costs did not have a negative impact on results, as advertisers sawtheir Return on Ad Spend increase by 25% over the previous year.
- #42 This is a daily breakdown of the 2010 holiday season with percentage of overall online sales revenue tracked throughKenshoo for the entire period. Looking back at last year’s calendar, Kenshoo’s US Retail Index clearly showed that shoppersgot the jump on Black Friday by starting their purchasing online on Thanksgiving Day. Black Friday and Cyber Monday werethe 2 biggest sales days, followed by Green Monday (which is defined as the last Monday before Christmas with at least 10day remaining before Christmas).December 17th was typically the last day that online retailers offered free shipping, representing the beginning of the endof the peak season. In 2010 we saw a strong sales weekend following “Free Shipping” day as many online consumers werewilling to pay for expedited shipping methods. Sellers of virtual goods that don’t rely on shipping should look to capitalizeon procrastinating shoppers who still need to buy gifts.
- #43 Looking at the calendar for this year, we can see that both Christmas and New Year’s fall on a Sunday. Expect a stronger week afterGreen Monday this year as it comes a bit earlier numerically in the calendar, thereby giving consumers the impression that theyhave more time to shop. New Year’s Eve falls on a Saturday, which means that most people will be off work on Friday, December30th. Since Monday is typically the highest traffic day for online sales, January 2nd should be a strong sales day as people get backin the office and search for deals online. We also anticipate high sales volume on Mondays in general throughout the holiday periodso, if you’re going to make ad copy or campaign changes, plan ahead so that you don’t take down your ads during these peak dates.
- #44 Use Kenshoo’s Objectives view to monitor your profile goals.Set your profiles objectives to visually monitor your goals for the holiday season. The objectives will display the pace anddistance from your goals giving you a quick view of performance and highlight areas that need attention.
- #45 Utilize Budget Management during the Holiday season to achieveoptimal campaign performance!Kenshoo Local can improve your performance by allocating unused or underperforming budget from one campaign to thenext based on KPIs such as spend, cost-per-click, or cost-per-lead. In addition, you can ensure maximum ad delivery duringthe peak Holiday season by utilizing automatic budget roll over.Configure your optimal campaign settings with Kenshoo Local’s Automatic Budget Management.
- #46 Automate bulk ad copy and landing page changes on important dates.Planning on swapping in new promotions on key dates around Christmas? Simply save your Advanced Searches and youwill be able to schedule them to run at set times. Just check the boxes “Automatically accept results” and “Automaticallyupload to channels” and Kenshoo will run your Scheduled Actions at the desired times.
- #48 Use Advanced Search to selectively increase and decrease bids.To expose seasonal keywords, there’s also the option to query for keywords that are less than the minimum bid and thentake an action to increase those bids to the minimum.
- #51 Use Kenshoo’s Forecast reports to find the optimal budgets for your bid portfolios.If you are using Kenshoo Portfolio Bid Management (model-based policies) you can run Forecast reports in the ReportingDashboard to see how budget changes will affect your performance.
- #52 Set bookmarks for important campaigns/ad groups/ads/keywordinformation so you can quickly jump to a page.Bookmarking is a feature that allows you to save any page in the Kenshoo interface for quick access.
