Turn Black Friday into a profitable campaign, not just a discount promotion
Download the free Black Friday Advertising Guide 2026 and discover what decisions you need to make before Black Friday to get the most out of Google, Meta, and your overall campaign.
Prevent your advertising budget from being wasted unnecessarily
Find out where your campaign should be before Black Friday
Align Google, Meta, your landing page, and email in a smart way
Don't focus solely on revenue and ROAS; focus on profitable growth
Higher revenue does not automatically mean better results
Black Friday can generate a lot of revenue. But if you offer too many discounts, advertising costs rise, and new customers disappear after their first purchase, there won’t be much left at the end of the day.
And especially around Black Friday, ads become more expensive and competition for attention intensifies.
The difference, therefore, isn't just determined by the size of the discount you offer, but mainly by how well you've set things up before the campaign.
Consider your business objective, offer, tracking, target audiences, creatives, landing page, email, and follow-up.
In the 2026 Black Friday Advertising Guide, we show you what to look out for and which common choices actually cost you money.
After reading this, you'll know:
What goal should guide your campaign?
where advertising budgets are often wasted unnecessarily
How to Assign Different Roles to Google and Meta Within the Customer Journey
Why a bigger discount isn't automatically the best Black Friday strategy
what needs to be ready before the peak
and how to keep reaping the benefits of Black Friday even after November
