Black Friday

Black Friday the annual day after Thanksgiving event, which officially kicks off the holiday shopping season in the U.S. has become a marketing frenzy. Not just the ads you hear and see in regular media, but retailers are utilizing social media as well. For instance, the last three years Target has had pre-black Friday ads featuring their Christmas Champ, an overly enthusiastic shopper portrayed by Maria Bamford, now interacts with customers on Twitter. @ChristmasChamp tweeting ads and offering advice, such as “Make a list, check it thrice” or “Use a utility belt.”

If you are trying get your piece of the Black Friday action consider how to interact with your customers and appeal, think big, even on a shoestring budget (remember you can tweet for free!)
