From Black Friday through to New Year’s Eve, the holidays are big business for B2C retailers. But as holiday shoppers prepare to swarm the shops, how can you make your festive campaign stand out?

According to data from eMarketer, the 2015 holiday season is expected to reach $885.7bn — that’s an increase of 5.7% year-on-year, and far too good an opportunity to pass up. But competition this time of year is stiff.

As the marketing automation experts at Marketo explain in their guide, 8 Steps to Creating an Effective Holiday Marketing Campaign: “Because of the multitude of messages, it’s hard for most people to pick one [holiday campaign] out from the crowd.
