EVERGREEN IDEA: THE 'BUNDLE' CAMPAIGN
Everyone loves scoring a bargain, so highlight the value of buying in bulk to your subscribers! If you have pre-curated bundles in store, let your audience know how much they can save by choosing a pack as opposed to shopping the individual items. You could also take the "spoil yourself" approach by encouraging the notion that your readers deserve to "have it all." Another bundle promo could be "create your own bundle," offering shoppers the chance to choose a certain number of items then save, say 10%.
