Christmas is one of the most important times of the year for all retailers but especially those trading online. The amount spent online during December grows exponentially every year and this year looks set to be no exception. According to the Interactive Media in Retail Group (IMRG), shoppers in the UK spent more than £5.4 BILLION online in December last year, a growth of 17% from the year before. 


Though there are still two full months until Christmas, it is never too early to start preparing your website and internet marketing strategies. According to data gleaned in an in-depth study by Statista, well over half of UK consumers begin their Christmas shopping during the month of October.

 
At our free workshop, we'll be sharing our extensive experience and unmatched expertise when it comes to preparing e-commerce websites for the Christmas buying rush. We will be focusing on a number of topics that will help you ensure that your website and internet marketing strategy stands out from the crowd, tempting discerning online shoppers away from your competitors.

  • Promotions. If there's one thing internet shoppers really love, it's a good bargain, especially during the festive period. At our workshop, you'll learn what kinds of promotions and offers work best, how to prepare and personalise them and how to make sure that they get noticed.
