Top 10 words used in Christmas email subject lines

After performing a semantic word analysis, we have some more insights to share:

  1. For a few years in a row, the most common words in Christmas subject lines remained “off” and “sale.” This proves that deal offers continue.

  2. “Christmas” is much more popular than “Holidays”.

  3. When it comes to a “Merry Xmas”, “Merry Christmas”, and “Happy Holidays” comparison, as these three phrases have a similar meaning, none of these three combinations were very popular. “Merry Christmas” was mentioned in less than 2% of all subject lines, while the other two phases appeared in even fewer cases.

  4. Although action words mostly didn’t make it to the top 10, the most popular examples were: “get”, “save”, and “don’t miss”.

  5. And although “Shipping” was left down in the #11 position, it also played a significant role in Christmas email subject lines.

Chasing the Clock: How Brands Woo Last-Minute Shoppers in the Countdown to Christmas 🎁🕰️

As Christmas approaches, brands are getting creative to boost last-minute holiday sales 🎄. The days before Christmas are a frenzy for retailers, with 10% of shoppers waiting until December to buy gifts, according to Gartner. Despite a 10% decrease from last year, nearly 142 million consumers plan to shop on Super Saturday, as per the National Retail Federation.

Brands are pulling out all the stops to encourage last-minute gift-giving:

1. Deck the Hall with Discounts:

Trade Coffee extended its 15% off subscription deal through December, capitalizing on digital subscriptions to overcome shipping challenges.

American Freight, a discount retailer, is focusing on reducing prices for core products, offering a great value proposition to price-sensitive consumers with the tagline "It's a Wrap."

2. Giveaways & Gift Cards Galore:

Aloha Collection's "Five Days of Aloha" and Brunt's "12 Days of Brunt" promotions add a fun twist to the holiday season, featuring themed giveaways and guaranteed discounts.

Bonus gift cards are gaining traction, with Aloha Collection offering a $50 voucher for purchases over $150, and Fulton introducing a $10 bonus gift card for last-minute gift givers.

These festive strategies aim to make holiday shopping enjoyable and convenient for consumers, ensuring a joyful end to the year for both shoppers and brands 🛍️🎁.

Crafting Trust 🛠️: Leveraging Your Branding for Stronger Audience Connections 🌐🤝

Understanding Visual Branding 🌐

Visual branding is the key to making your business instantly recognizable. Think of iconic logos like Nike and Apple or the distinct red used by Coca-Cola. Visual branding ensures customers identify your business beyond just the product, fostering trust and recognition. 👁️‍🗨️🔍

How Brand Assets Works 🛠️

Designed for e-commerce stores, Brand Assets seamlessly integrates your logo, fonts, brand 

colors, and social media links. Connect your e-commerce store to Omnisend, and these elements are automatically incorporated into your email templates. The preview feature lets you visualize how each template will appear with your branding before selection. 👀🖼️

Why Your Visual Brand Matters 🚀

Your visual brand is a powerful tool for differentiating your business and building trust with your audience. Consistent visual branding has been shown to increase revenue by 33%. Burger King's recent campaign, referencing competitors with clever colors and shapes, illustrates the impact of consistent branding. 📈🌈

Reaping the Benefits of Visual Branding 🌐

When used consistently, visual branding:

  1. Enables instant recognition 👀

  2. Builds trust 🤝

  3. Creates stronger brand ambassadors 🚀

Taking a Lesson from Burger King 🍔

While your business may not be on the scale of fast-food giants, reinforcing your visual branding in every communication strengthens your brand over time.
