It’s that time of the year, today officially starts Cyber Monday Week and all those great deals. But this week’s highlight will take place on Friday, November 24th, with the start of Black Friday. The end of November is synonymous with a strong Christmas spirit, uncontrollable shopping impulses, and “the best” offers. That‘s today’s normal in Germany, in Europe.

Black Friday ushers in the beginning of the hotly contested Christmas business and has become the biggest discount campaign in online sales throughout Germany. Every year since 2012, the phenomenon breaks all online sales records and boosts e-commerce.

In addition, the power and influence of the online giant Amazon, which has successfully introduced this habit in Europe, are likely to increase. But this stream can also be exploited for personal gain.

What do online retailers have to pay attention to, to succeed, and what can they do to oppose Black Friday?

Last November, we could certify that the European shopping psyche was turning. The battle for bargains is played online thanks to the uprooting power of the American Black Friday, led mainly by the giant Amazon. Since 2012 his phenomenon has been smashing all online sales records year after year, boosting the e-commerce sector even more.

This year shoppers take Black Friday into account for their Christmas shopping as never before. It is a fact that its influence has changed the shopping behaviour in some countries such as UK and Spain.

Additionally, more retailers increasingly spread their Black Friday promotions over so many days, and some others are joining in the bonanza shopping day. The centrepiece for both retailers and shoppers is undoubtedly the smartphone.
