I Gave AI 3 Prompts To Prepare My Shopify Store For Black Friday

Black Friday is coming — but is your Shopify store actually ready?

In this episode of Winning With Shopify, Nick shares three AI prompts that Shopify merchants can use to prepare for Black Friday and uncover problems before the biggest shopping weekend of the year.

Rather than using AI to write another Black Friday email, these prompts are designed to make AI analyse your ecommerce data, find weaknesses and identify where you're potentially leaving money on the table.

You'll learn how to use AI to:

Run a BFCM Readiness Check and identify the biggest things you need to fix before Black Friday
Find your biggest revenue leaks before Q4
Run an Automation Stress Test to see whether your email marketing is ready for increased traffic
Identify the biggest Black Friday email mistakes brands make
Understand why discounting can destroy your profit even when sales and revenue increase
Think differently about the long-term value of customers acquired during Black Friday
Avoid simply copying your competitors' Black Friday offers
Plan what happens after the Black Friday purchase
Focus on profit rather than getting distracted by record revenue
