In this episode of the "Send It" podcast, host Jimmy Kim and co‑host Chase Diamond discuss why brands must avoid going silent after Black Friday/Cyber Monday (BFCM) and outline a concrete post‑purchase retention strategy. They explain the psychological advantages of BFCM buyers—recency, intent, and volume—and illustrate the financial necessity of converting these first‑time purchasers into repeat customers to offset high acquisition costs. The conversation breaks down a four‑stage email/SMS flow (onboarding, education, bounce‑back offer, long‑term nurture) with detailed timing, cadence, and content recommendations, and then expands into five plug‑and‑play campaign templates (welcome, product education, cross‑sell/complete‑the‑set, treat‑yourself, New‑Year/goal‑setting). They stress the importance of early, value‑driven communication, bridge‑discount offers, and VIP‑style tagging of BFCM cohorts. Finally, they list five key performance metrics to monitor—repeat purchase rate, time to second purchase, flow conversion rate, lifetime‑value uplift, and revenue per subscriber (plus CPA)—and provide benchmark figures. Throughout, sponsor reads for Kintsugi, Omnisend, and their own Ecom Email Certified program are interspersed. The episode ends with a recap and calls to action for listeners.
