How hair accessories brands do promotional campaign emails
1. Beauty Works: Hair goals > chocolate: Beauty Works Advent Calendar ✨
Objective
This email aims to drive pre-orders for the Beauty Works 12 Days of Christmas Advent Calendar by creating holiday excitement and emphasizing the product’s value at £155. It also encourages immediate purchase through urgency-driven messaging and a secondary free gift offer.
Why this works
The email brilliantly frames the advent calendar as a luxury holiday ritual rather than just a product, tapping into seasonal anticipation and emotional gifting desires to justify its premium price point.
How to implement
By visually anchoring the £155 value next to the product image, the campaign immediately communicates perceived worth, making the pre-order feel like a smart investment rather than an impulse buy.
Pro Tip
Add a countdown timer near the 'SHOP NOW' button to amplify urgency around pre-order availability, especially since the product is tied to a seasonal event with limited-time appeal. • Include a short bullet list or icon grid under the advent calendar image to highlight 2–3 standout items inside, helping customers visualize the value beyond the £155 tag and reducing perceived risk.
