What's Inside

Five areas that actually move the needle during Black Friday, worked through week by week, with space for your own notes alongside each one.

Site performance

 

Speed, checkout, payments and search, tested before the traffic arrives, not during it.

Customer experience​

​

Delivery dates, FAQs and your team briefed, so nobody's caught out by expected volume.

Stock & Merchandising

​

Forecasting, bundling slow stock, and a plan for when a bestseller sells out.

Promotions & pricing

​

Discount structure, tested codes, and margin checked before go-live.

Post purchase

​

Order flows, returns policy and a plan to bring first-time buyers back in January.

30 checks. 6 weeks.

 

Every item is mapped to the week it actually needs doing; nothing is saved for a last-minute scramble.

How To Use The Checklist

It lands in your inbox

Nothing left to the final week that should have been sorted back in week four.

Who is this for?

You're running a small-to-medium eCommerce store without a big team behind you

You know Black Friday prep matters, but keep finding you're doing it in the last two weeks

You'd rather have a plan broken into weeks than one long list with no clear place to start

You want something practical you can actually tick off, not another think-piece
