Emails We Love: RadioShack’s 2013 Cyber Monday “24 Deals in 24 Hours”

Share This Post

A glimpse at how the email dynamically changed each hour.

This creative Cyber Monday campaign from RadioShack encouraged subscribers to open the same email at the top of every hour to discover a brand new deal. The featured deal updated automatically within the email so that whenever a subscriber chose to open the message, the latest offer was always displayed. The offers promoted in the email corresponded directly with the hourly deals featured on RadioShack.com.

RadioShack originally tested the idea of updating offers in a single email during Cyber Monday last year, and experienced a 25% lift in click-through rates compared to the year prior. Read more about the retailer’s past experiences with Agile Email Marketing technology and future plans here in Adweek.

This year, RadioShack incorporated even more real-time email content and interactive cross-channel functionality to fully amplify the Cyber Monday shopping experience:

A pre-populated tweet about RadioShack’s #24dealsin24 loaded from a single click in the email.

A countdown clock animated to show how many minutes and seconds remained until the next big “deal reveal”. The timer automatically reset at the start of each hour.
  • Subscribers were encouraged to tweet their guesses for the next deal, and RadioShack made it as easy as possible for recipients to participate by deep linking to Twitter with a pre-populated tweet. After clicking on “Tweet Your Guess Now”, a ready-to-send tweet loaded in twitter.com if the email was opened on desktop. If the email recipient was instead using a mobile device, the tweet loaded within the mobile Twitter app.

  • A live social media feed showed @RadioShack’s latest tweets, which included hints about upcoming deals.
