Picture this: You’ve spent hours crafting the perfect Black Friday deals, yet your emails are going unnoticed, and your ads are reaching people who have no interest in the products. In a world where gaining attention is getting increasingly difficult, knowing your audience and targeting them accurately has never been more critical.
This is where Clerk’s Audience tool steps in, turning what feels like guesswork into a data-driven strategy that guarantees success.
This isn't just about sending out promotions—it's about ensuring your Black Friday deals land in the inboxes and on the screens of the right people, with the right message.
Here’s why now is the time to segment your audience and how you can make the most of Clerk’s tools to bring relevance and precision to your Black Friday campaigns.
Step 1: Understand your audience with precision
Imagine if you could step into your customers’ minds and predict what they want before they even know it themselves. With our Audience tool, this isn’t just a day-dream—it’s a reality.
Audience uses real-time behavioral data to segment customers based on what they’ve bought and how they interact with your site—predicting what products they are likely to want next.
Concretely, the AI-driven tool will allow you to create personalized, targeted ads that hit the right people.
Why this matters for Black Friday:
During Black Friday, the competition for attention becomes fierce. Customers are bombarded with offers and it’s easy for your marketing to get lost in the flood.
But Audience ensures you’re sending the right message to the right group—whether they’re loyal returning customers or visitors who showed interest but never converted. No guessing. Just data-driven precision.
Step 2: Pair audience with Email for maximum impact
If Audience is your compass, Clerk’s Email is the wind that drives your message forward, ensuring it reaches the right destination with force. When paired together, these two tools form a duo that is almost impossible to beat.
Here’s how it works: Audience segments your customers, and the Email tool ensures each segment receives highly personalized product recommendations in their inboxes. The combination is all about delivering content that is hyper-relevant to the right people.
Why this matters for Black Friday:
Sending generic emails on Black Friday simply won’t cut it. Your customers need to feel understood.
By combining Audience and Email, you can craft dynamic email campaigns that adjust in real-time, offering recommendations based on what customers are actually looking for. Whether it’s a first-time shopper or a VIP customer, your emails will land with purpose.

Step 3: Stop guessing, start acting
With Clerk’s Interested In metric, you don’t have to guess what your customers want. The feature is built into the Audience tool and provides insights into what each customer is likely to buy—even if they’ve never purchased anything similar before. This is especially crucial during Black Friday when speed and accuracy are everything.
Imagine knowing which of your customers are ready to purchase a specific product, even if they haven’t clicked on it yet. With Audience, you can act on these insights, offering personalized deals that speak directly to your customers' interests, ensuring you’re not leaving money on the table.
Why this matters for Black Friday:
During the Black Friday rush, timing is everything. The ability to predict what customers want ahead of time gives you a massive advantage over competitors. Instead of blasting out blanket discounts, you’re offering tailored promotions that speak directly to what your customers are looking for.
Step 4: Boost your ad spend efficiency
No one likes wasting money on ads, especially during Black Friday when every penny counts. With Audience, you can segment customers and sync this data with ad platforms like Google and Facebook, ensuring your paid ads target specific, high-value segments.
What’s even more powerful is the combination of Audience and Clerk’s Email tool. Together, they create a feedback loop: as customers interact with your emails, Audience refines their behavior profile, improving your targeting for future campaigns. More relevance means higher returns on your ad spend.
Why this matters for Black Friday:
This year, you want to ensure that every dollar you spend on ads brings back maximum value. With Audience, your ad campaigns are precise and effective, targeting the customers who are most likely to convert, maximizing your Return on Advertising Spend (RoAS).
Step 5: Create urgency—it’s now or never
Black Friday is, at its core, a time-sensitive event. Customers are rushing to make decisions, and the stakes are high. By using Clerk’s Audience and Email tools, you can capitalize on this urgency, sending real-time updates and exclusive offers that keep customers engaged and returning to your site.
Why this matters for Black Friday:
In the weeks leading up to Black Friday, you’ll want to use Audience to create specific segments—like those customers who haven’t bought in a while, or those who’ve been engaging with your products but haven’t checked out yet.
As the day draws nearer, you can ramp up the urgency with targeted email campaigns that ensure no potential customer is left untouched.
Conclusion: Act now, thrive later
As Black Friday approaches, preparation is key, but targeted preparation is what sets the best apart from the rest.
With Clerk’s Audience and Email tools, you can leave nothing to chance. Every message, every campaign, every ad is backed by data, ensuring you’re not just part of the Black Friday noise—you’re the signal that stands out.
Are you ready to stop guessing and start acting? Your most profitable Black Friday yet is just a few clicks away.
