Why Goals Matter?

No guesswork. Just results.

Start with last year’s BFCM numbers: revenue, traffic, AOV, conversion rates.

Step #1: Analyze Last Year’s Data

Past data is your best benchmark.

Don’t just say “$100K in sales”. Break it into daily, product-level, and channel-specific targets for clarity.

Step #2: Break Down Sales Targets

Make goals Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound.

Step #3 – Set SMART Goals

For example: “Increase AOV by 15% through bundles.”

Sales = Traffic × Conversion × AOV.

Step #4: Factor in Traffic & Conversion

Use this formula to set realistic targets and spot what needs the most focus.

Share goals with your team, assign responsibilities, and align ad spend.
