Meta’s survey reveals the keys to festive shopping and sales

What truly drives holiday sales? It’s important to understand this to know how you’ll align your marketing strategies towards your target audience.

According to The Economic Times, Meta’s latest survey dove into the mysteries of festive shopping.

What drives customers to shop during the holidays? 🚗🎃🦃🎄❄️

Every year there are new shopping trends that affect buyer behavior. Let’s take a look at what people are saying about last year’s holiday season:

  • Micro is nitro. Influencers are still on top of the list. Content creators bring credibility and are keys to gaining customers’ trust as 40% of festive shoppers are influenced by micro-influencers(10,000-100,000 followers) when discovering brands, deals, and sales events.
  • Goodbye language barriers. Creating marketing materials in regional languages can help you get sales.3 out of 4 shoppers said advertising in their local language during festive shopping is important. After all, marketing is all about communication.
  • Don’t be afraid to use AI! These tools will enable businesses to craft creatives during this competitive season. Arun Srinivas, director and head of ads business (India) at Meta, said, over 15 million ads have been made using Meta’s generative AI ad creative tools. And, it’s working! Ad campaigns using these features resulted in an 11% higher click-through rate and 7.6% higher conversion rate on average, compared to campaigns that didn’t use them.
  • Faster is better. Quick commerce is another key shopping trend this year. 1 in 4 electronics buyers and 1 in 3 personal care buyers purchase via quick commerce platforms.
  • Discovery driver. Lastly, social media is the key driver for discovery and brand awareness. 80% of festive shoppers discover products on Meta platforms(Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp), with 85% learning about at least one sales event. There’s more sharing during festive seasons, with people posting their outfits or gifts received, and tagging the brands in their posts.

We want to know!
