Immersive retail experiences, like pop-ups, have become a popular strategy for beauty brands looking to engage with their customers on a deeper level. These pop-ups create a massive buzz and can drive significant sales, but have you ever thought about the downside? Pop-ups can be extremely wasteful. Consider the single-use promotional materials that are often created for these events. These items are designed for short-term use and quickly discarded, contributing to environmental waste. Additionally, pop-ups feed into consumerism by tapping into the ‘fear of missing out’, for example at rhode skin’s London pop-up just over a month ago, people were queuing in line for hours on end, a TikToker even said they waited 7 hours! Whilst pop-ups they may generate immediate sales, it’s worth questioning whether this approach has a lasting impact. Are these short-term gains sustainable for beauty brands in the long run?

It’s Q4 which means retail has been preparing for its busiest season. Despite rising interest rates and cost of living pressures, we know that consumers are still spending, particularly as we approach the holiday season. For brands, this means planning ahead for this busy period is more critical than ever. Here’s some ways brands can do this: 1️⃣ Prioritise your CRM strategy: Use your customer data to engage more effectively. Personalised, targeted campaigns like follow-up emails or abandoned cart reminders with well-timed incentives can help boost conversions during this peak period. 2️⃣ Review your pricing and promotional strategy: Shoppers have varying budgets, but beauty products remain a popular and accessible gift option. By offering promotions that cater to different price points, brands can meet diverse consumer needs and increase overall sales. 3️⃣ Consider early holiday shopping trends: Many customers are starting their holiday purchases sooner to manage their spending. Brands should ensure their marketing and promotions reflect this shift, providing relevant offers that align with these evolving shopping behaviors. 4️⃣ Channels for growth: Utilising platforms like TikTok can be a powerful way to drive sales, creating urgency and immediate action. Its "when it's gone, it's gone" model, often used for limited-time offers, is something beauty brands could explore alongside more traditional sales channels. Even in a challenging economic climate, there’s still opportunity for growth. With a well-thought-out strategy, brands can navigate Q4 successfully.
