Black Friday Pretty Darn GREAT for E-Commerce!

Mon, Nov 30, 2009

Uncategorized

In this economy, we’re all looking for some good news!  One of the questions I get asked often, is:

How is the economic slow down hurting Internet marketing businesses ?

I’ve always answered that I’d rather be in an online business than a brick and mortar.  I can be so flexible with my business and advertising strategies…AND, it always seems like the one area of retail growth is online spending..even in an economic downturn.

Well…that’s happened again.  In a time where all spending is down.  Online retail spending for black Friday was up 11% year over year (Thanksgiving day spending was up 10%)

These are not trivial numbers for sure.

Online remains a great place to be during hard economic times AND good ones.

    Steve,

    I’m considering getting NB. Are NB1 customers going to get a free upgrade to NB2? Or should I wait it out for 2.0?

    Tnx
