But as a merchant you should take this as a sign to start thinking about your Christmas email campaigns.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Especially when Christmas represents one of the biggest spending periods globally with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/story\/money\/2019\/10\/30\/holiday-shopping-forecast-2019-how-much-money-people-spend\/2498802001\/\">average American consumer being anticipated to spend $1,048<\/a> on Christmas purchases in 2019. And with email marketing expected to be <a href=\"http:\/\/content.mailcharts.com\/reports\/2016-holiday-email-marketing.pdf\">responsible for 20% of these sales<\/a>.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And while the holiday season already primes people to shop more, it doesn\u2019t mean you should just sit back and wait for the sales to roll in.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By starting early and properly structuring your Christmas email marketing campaigns, you\u2019re setting your store up to make this Christmas your most profitable yet.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So in that spirit, we\u2019ve come up with this list of 10 Christmas email ideas to take full advantage of the holiday sales.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1) Christmas teaser email<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>How early is too early for your first Christmas email?&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well given that two of the biggest online shopping days (Black Friday and Cyber Monday) occur roughly a month before Christmas, they provide a good reference point.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In your Black Friday email marketing, you can definitely remind people how great the sales weekend is to get on top of Christmas shopping. Making this potentially the first time you mention Christmas in your marketing.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for your Christmas sale, a week or two after Black Friday makes for a good time to start sending out emails.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A good option for your first email is a simple teaser only providing limited details of your upcoming sale. Such as in this example.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"191\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-vi-tller-ned-til-d-1-december-med-lkre-overraskelser-191x1024.png\" alt=\"SmartrMail Christmas email examples - vi-tller-ned-til-d-1-december-med-lkre-overraskelser\" class=\"wp-image-10304\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-vi-tller-ned-til-d-1-december-med-lkre-overraskelser-191x1024.png 191w, https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-vi-tller-ned-til-d-1-december-med-lkre-overraskelser-56x300.png 56w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 191px) 100vw, 191px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Sending a teaser email to your engaged customers will help build excitement and anticipation for your upcoming sale. Just be sure to quickly follow it up with your actual sale announcement.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2) Holiday gift guide\/catalog email<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t want to tease your subscribers or if you haven\u2019t finalized your sale yet, gift guides are a great option to ease your way into Christmas email marketing early.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to them being a way to showcase the products you want to move, they also offer value to your customers. Especially seeing as many people are looking for gift ideas at this time of year.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just be sure to include key examples of products from a range of collections to maximize the chances something will catch your subscriber\u2019s eye. Just like how Rapha has done it.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image aligncenter uagb-block-5bfbdf6e wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-zoomin wp-block-uagb-image--align-center\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Rapha-guft-guide-127x1024.png ,https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Rapha-guft-guide.png 780w, https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Rapha-guft-guide.png 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 150px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Rapha-guft-guide-127x1024.png\" alt=\"Christmas email examples SmartrMail blog - Rapha guft guide\" class=\"uag-image-10298\" width=\"680\" height=\"5466\" title=\"Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Rapha-guft-guide\" loading=\"lazy\" role=\"img\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3) Christmas sale announcement email<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The most essential part of your Christmas email marketing campaign is going to be the email where you actually announce the details of your sale.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve already sent out a teaser email and\/or a gift guide, then it\u2019s likely your customers will already have a few products in mind that they want to buy. At this point, often a simple discount offer will be enough to convert shoppers.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-ff867e0e wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-zoomin wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Xmas-announcement-email-203x1024.png ,https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Xmas-announcement-email.png 780w, https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Xmas-announcement-email.png 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 150px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Xmas-announcement-email-203x1024.png\" alt=\"Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Xmas-announcement-email\" class=\"uag-image-10299\" width=\"680\" height=\"3422\" title=\"Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Xmas-announcement-email\" loading=\"lazy\" role=\"img\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Obviously the better your offer, the more people you\u2019ll convert. And just as in the above example from Lego, a great Christmas email design will help immensely.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if you don\u2019t end up sending any pre-sale announcement emails, be sure to get this email out well before December 25th. Ideally a week in advance at the very least to ensure that your customers haven\u2019t already finished their Christmas shopping.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4) Personalized\/early offers to loyal customers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When sending your sale emails, it\u2019s worthwhile spending a bit of time <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/5-ways-to-segment-ecommerce-stores-email-list\/\">segmenting your email list<\/a> into various groups of loyal customers. This lets you include relevant products in your emails but more importantly save your biggest offers for your most valuable customers.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Doing so makes your customers feel valued and appreciated, further increasing the likelihood that they\u2019ll spend their money on a purchase from your store.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t want to spend the time curating several emails of different types of gifts, there\u2019s a couple of other options you have. You can send <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/auto-emails\">automatically generated personalized recommendations<\/a>, or give them a sneak peak of your Christmas sale.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like in this email from Readdle.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"285\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-thank-you-for-this-incredible-year-285x1024.png\" alt=\"Christmas email examples SmartrMail blog - thank-you-for-this-incredible-year\" class=\"wp-image-10312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-thank-you-for-this-incredible-year-285x1024.png 285w, https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-thank-you-for-this-incredible-year-427x1536.png 427w, https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-thank-you-for-this-incredible-year-570x2048.png 570w, https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-thank-you-for-this-incredible-year.png 501w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 285px) 100vw, 285px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Fossil could have improved their copy here to make their email sound more exclusive by changing \u201cour gift to you\u201d to something along the lines of \u201cas a thank you for being a long time customer, we\u2019re offering you\u2026\u201d. Including your subscriber\u2019s name is also definitely something we\u2019d recommend.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5) Abandoned cart emails<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/abandoned-cart-emails\/\">abandoned cart recovery emails<\/a> aren\u2019t holiday emails &#8211; being something you should have automated throughout the year. They\u2019re particularly important when it comes to your Christmas email marketing campaigns.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to changing the email template you use to something more Christmas themed, you might want to temporarily increase the frequency of your follow up emails.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is because at this time of year you can expect people to be making a lot of purchases across multiple sites. The longer you wait until you send a reminder email, the greater the chances are they\u2019ve already purchased the present elsewhere.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So increase the frequency of your cart recovery emails so that the first one sends within an hour someone abandoning their cart. Then make sure the second and third follow ups are sent within 24 hours.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And if you haven\u2019t enabled abandoned cart emails at all yet, activate them now.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your email marketing software doesn\u2019t offer them, then switch to a commerce-focused solution that does like SmartrMail. You can automate them in only a few clicks with our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/lp\/free-trial\/\">free trial<\/a> without having to commit to anything.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6) The \u201clet them decide\u201d gift card email<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s one of the most common presents people will gift each other at Christmas?&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gift cards.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only do they make a great option when you have no idea what to buy someone, but they also make for an easy holiday email.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-undefined wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-no-time-give-a-gift-card-463x1024.png ,https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-no-time-give-a-gift-card.png 780w, https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-no-time-give-a-gift-card.png 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 150px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-no-time-give-a-gift-card-463x1024.png\" alt=\"SmartrMail Christmas marketing examples - gift card\" class=\"uag-image-10279\" width=\"690\" height=\"1526\" title=\"Christmas-email-examples-no-time-give-a-gift-card\" loading=\"lazy\" role=\"img\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like highlighted in the above example from Bellroy, gift cards also make a great last minute gift idea if customers are able to download them instantly.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you send this email, you might want to exclude people who have already made a purchase for Christmas from your store. That way you\u2019re not overwhelming them with emails while targeting people who are struggling to find a gift more effectively.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7) Christmas shipping deadline reminder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After you\u2019ve announced your sale and December 25th draws closer, you\u2019ll want to send a few follow up emails reminding people of your sale.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One way you can do this without just rehashing the same content is to send a reminder to your customers to complete their purchases by a particular date to guarantee delivery before Christmas.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Such as in this email from Moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-dda0dc10 wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-get-all-your-gifts-yet-187x1024.png ,https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-get-all-your-gifts-yet.png 780w, https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-get-all-your-gifts-yet.png 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 150px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-get-all-your-gifts-yet-187x1024.png\" alt=\"Christmas email examples SmartrMail blog - get-all-your-gifts-yet\" class=\"uag-image-10281\" width=\"680\" height=\"3723\" title=\"Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-get-all-your-gifts-yet\" loading=\"lazy\" role=\"img\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Only thing that Ben Sherman is missing from their email is their Christmas offer. Seeing as you\u2019re running a Christmas sale, there\u2019s no reason not to reiterate your offer in this email.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This email also makes it easy to create a sense of urgency, prompting your subscribers to take action instead of just putting off their purchase to later.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8) The \u201cit\u2019s not too late\u201d email<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your shipping deadline email didn\u2019t do the trick, sending a \u201cit\u2019s not too late\u201d email might be what your customers need to push them across the line.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is simply an email you leave to the absolutely last moment for customers to get their purchases by Christmas. Such as December 23rd if you\u2019re able to offer express shipping.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"220\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-its-not-too-late-theres-time-220x1024.png\" alt=\"Christmas email examples SmartrMail blog - it's not too late there's time\" class=\"wp-image-10282\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chances are plenty of your customers will have put off their Christmas shopping until the last minute. So as they\u2019re stressing out trying to find something that\u2019ll deliver in time, they\u2019ll appreciate you throwing them a lifeline.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re unable to offer a discount on purchases, offering free express shipping is a strategy you might want to consider. Often in the last week before Christmas this offer will be as enticing, if not more so than a typical percentage discount.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9) Post-Christmas email campaign<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Just because Christmas has come and gone, doesn\u2019t mean it has to be the end of your Christmas email marketing campaign.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boxing Day is a major sales holiday in many countries that you can definitely take advantage of.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Traditionally Boxing Day sales involve heavier discounting than your Christmas sale. This gives you a great opportunity to target those Christmas shoppers who had their eye on a particular product but never purchased it in all of the commotion of Christmas shopping.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"692\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Boxing-Day-3-Hush-Puppies.png\" alt=\"Christmas email examples SmartrMail blog - Boxing-Day-3-Hush-Puppies\" class=\"wp-image-10313\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Boxing-Day-3-Hush-Puppies.png 480w, https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Christmas-email-examples-SmartrMail-blog-Boxing-Day-3-Hush-Puppies-208x300.png 208w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, it\u2019s also a chance to clear all any excess Christmas stock that didn\u2019t sell beforehand.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another option is to celebrate the new year with your subscribers.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can do this by holding another sale (if your store can cope with yet another one) or simply by showing your appreciation for your customers. Like Readdle has done.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/biyLgnxeHzVqup6l9_MquboXlalKMRSJYqn5DvMHVl-A6V9vK8-5BLmBQAlBX3BTfyMSVviCLYT-fWdWglEHDdtUfTcqCWpXa3StpctuF03-IF9QcFe8egax-6GD_TTcBEJsaES3\" alt=\"new year's email\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10) 12 Days of Christmas email campaign<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to go all out with your Christmas email marketing this year? One idea you might want to consider is a 12 Days of Christmas campaign where you announce a new offer everyday for 12 days in the lead up to Christmas.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This gives you plenty of room to be creative in how you run the campaign. For instance you can set up a dedicated landing page with countdown timers for your various offers.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can even do your own twist such as the 12 nights of wine from Vinebox.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/EHEXzvoh6USrBJVBg_gL-QG5LNKWXLnXK2N1rfhMvXTMiS21BlhJj-GlswKUmIveykiljao9bQlysP9thGxj7jXtnwFdHQT_CxJ9ayA69Kzd-3FUkZMX6sWIUt0SfuGvy4Ech1-9\" alt=\"12 days of christmas email marketing example\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The only issue with running this type of campaign is that sending an email everyday for 12 days straight will fatigue your subscribers. Especially if they\u2019re not into celebrating Christmas. So don\u2019t forget to spread the announcements out across your social media channels instead of just relying on email.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Implementing your Christmas email marketing ideas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>By now you should hopefully have plenty of ideas for your Christmas email marketing. Now you just have to implement them.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like with any holiday email campaign, there are a few things you should keep in mind.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, no matter how great your email design or content is, it\u2019s useless if people don\u2019t open your email to see it. To achieve a decent open rate you need to pay attention to your subject line. Thankfully we have a collection of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/christmas-email-subject-lines\/\">Christmas email subject lines<\/a> that you can use.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also keep in mind that not everyone celebrates Christmas. Depending on where your business is and the make-up of your email list, you might want to consider maintaining a light touch with references to Christmas.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, email marketing is all about building a relationship with your subscribers. Don\u2019t just use the holiday period as an excuse to spam people with sale emails. Remember to take the time to genuinely wish your subscribers a Merry Christmas (or Happy Holidays) and New Year.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And to all of our readers, have a joyful holiday season and a happy new year! <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Check out this list of 10 Christmas email ideas to take full advantage of the holiday
