Should I use pop-ups on Black Friday?

I'm trying to optimize my e-commerce store's conversion strategy for Black Friday and wondering whether pop-ups are an effective tool or just an annoyance for customers. I've heard mixed opinions about their impact on user experience and conversion rates. I want to understand the pros and cons of using pop-ups during high-traffic shopping events like Black Friday, and learn how to implement them in a way that enhances rather than disrupts the customer journey. What are the best practices for creating pop-ups that actually drive sales without frustrating potential buyers?

TL;DR - Quick Answer

Yes, use pop-ups strategically on Black Friday: exit-intent for cart abandoners, scroll-triggered for engaged readers, and email capture for new visitors. Avoid intrusive entry pop-ups that block the page immediately on arrival.

Pop-up Strategy for Black Friday

Growth Suite Tip

Email Capture Campaigns in Growth Suite can be triggered by exit-intent, time on page, or scroll depth. Use them to build your email list during peak Black Friday traffic - that list is yours to keep for future campaigns long after the sale ends.
