Savvy's Black Friday 2024 Wrap-Up! Wow, what a week! The Black Friday period this year (Nov 25th to Dec 2nd) brought a fantastic surge in gift card sales compared to the same time in 2023 across a range of Savvy’s customers. Check out the highlights: ✨ Total Sales Value: +39% ✨ Average Transaction Value (ATV): +8.6% ✨ B2C Online Sales: +54% ✨ B2B Sales: +19% ✨ Own Stores: +24% ✨ Malls: +52% So, what’s behind these incredible numbers? Could it be that shoppers held off earlier in November, waiting for those Black Friday deals? November sales overall were up +14%, but it’s hard to say if this was Christmas shopping brought forward or just the irresistible value on offer during Black Friday. Either way, customers were clearly ready to spend. Based on trends from 2022 and 2023, December sales typically double November’s performance. Get busy selling everyone! 🎄
