The Snugg Joins in the Festivities With Their Latest Black Friday Deal: Giving Away a Free iPhone 4 / 4S Case With Every Purchase

The Snugg, the UK based, best-selling iPad and tablet case retailer, is about to begin promoting its first ever Black Friday deal. In the UK, Black Friday is seen as little more than an online shopping deals day, but in the US, it has become synonymous with traffic jams, frenzied shopping and a day of headaches for the local police as stores open at midnight to cope with the kick-off of the Christmas shopping season.

Earlier this year, The Snugg expanded to the US, the rest of Europe and a number of other territories and so participating in the local festivities has become important in gaining brand visibility. So to further increase brand awareness and sales in the run up to the holiday season, The Snugg is giving away a free iPhone 4 / 4S case with every purchase made on their website from Black Friday until midnight on Cyber Monday.

When asked about the deal, Managing Director Richard Mercer stated that:

“In the run up to Black Friday and the period that follows, people are actively hunting Black Friday deals; so as long as your product is part of a big deal, you’ll get lots of extra exposure. This allows us to present ourselves to a whole new audience whilst also gaining the opportunity to cross-sell our other products once consumers come to our site looking for more information”

In 2010, Americans spent over $45 Billion on Black Friday alone, an average of $365.34 each; and so it is a small, but highly profitable window of opportunity for those retailers who operate in US. Those retailers selling products that compliment new releases, such as cases for the new Amazon Kindle Fire, are hoping to use this period to kick start the sales of these new lines.

“We have recently launched our Kindle Fire Case and so far we’ve been working hard to meet demand as these cases are flying off the shelves. With Black Friday looming, we hope to establish a solid brand reputation in the US for our quality Kindle Fire Covers, that will support our lines well into the new year when the revised Kindle Fire additions are released” states Mr Mercer.

Despite the recession and polls demonstrating that 37% of Americans felt that they are financially worse off now, than they were at the same time last year, a 2% or more rise in overall Black Friday spending is expected. Online retailers are also experiencing increasing Black Friday sales growth with an overall increase of 9% in 2010 whilst Amazon experienced a staggering 25% increase, which improved the sales of all of its sellers as a result.

“With the advent of Cyber Monday as a result of the sales increases immediately after the thanks giving weekend, we know that cash rich / time poor professionals are going to be drawn to cyber Monday sales and given the niche we operate in, these people are more likely to own an iPad, Kindle Fire or other tablet devices and so this period looks to be a great time for us and our Kindle Fire Case” adds Mr Mercer
