The Black Friday Cyber Monday (BFCM) shopping season is just one week away, and Shopify merchants are racing against time to fine-tune their stores. As competition heats up, your store’s design and user experience need to grab attention and convert visitors into customers.
Quick enhancements using the Theme Sections feature in the Theme Updater & Backups app can help you stand out.
Here are three powerful sections you can add today to elevate your Shopify store before BFCM!
Sales banner
The Sales Banner section is your digital billboard for promotions, offering a wide array of customization options to make your message pop. Whether you’re announcing storewide discounts, exclusive deals, or free shipping, this section is versatile and engaging.
The Sales Banner ensures your key messaging is impossible to miss, making it ideal for promoting urgency and enticing customers to act fast. Use it on your homepage or key landing pages to maximize visibility.
Countdown timers
Countdown timers are a proven way to create urgency and drive conversions, and Theme Sections makes it easy to install this feature in your store.
You can choose between a full-size Countdown Timer section or a compact announcement bar-style Countdown Timer Bar to match your design preferences.
The timer signals to shoppers that they’re racing against the clock to secure deals. This psychological trigger can increase sales, especially during BFCM when customers are already primed to buy.
Scrolling text
