How Blume Does Email Campaigns
1. Labor Day 25% off ends tonight ๐
Objective
This email aims to drive last-minute sales by creating urgency around a Labor Day promotion, encouraging recipients to redeem a mystery discount before the sale ends at midnight.
Why this works
The email leverages emotional warmth with a casual greeting and personal sign-off, making the promotion feel like a friendly reminder rather than a sales pitch, which builds trust and encourages action.
How to implement
Using a mystery discount code instead of a fixed percentage adds intrigue and psychological appeal, prompting curiosity-driven clicks while still delivering real value to the customer.
Pro Tip
Add a visual countdown timer in the body or header to reinforce urgency dynamically, as static text about 'ending tonight' may not trigger immediate action for all recipients. โข Include a small product grid or featured item with the discount applied to help customers visualize value and reduce decision paralysis during the final hours of the sale.
2. Natural skincare 20% off ๐
Objective
This email aims to drive immediate sales during Amazon Prime Day by highlighting a limited-time 20% discount and free 2-day shipping on all Blume products, leveraging urgency and social proof to convert Prime shoppers.
Why this works
The email brilliantly ties the discount to Amazon Prime Day, creating a sense of occasion and urgency that makes the offer feel exclusive and time-sensitive, which motivates quick action from shoppers already primed to buy.
How to implement
By featuring a real customer review with a verified purchase badge and star rating, the campaign builds instant credibility and reduces purchase hesitation, making social proof a powerful conversion tool without needing lengthy testimonials.
Pro Tip
Add a countdown timer near the CTA to reinforce urgency, since the email mentions the sale ending but doesnโt visually pressure the reader to act before time runs out. โข Include a small product grid or 'Most Popular' section below the testimonial to showcase top sellers, helping indecisive shoppers quickly identify what to buy and reducing friction in the decision-making process.
3. BLACK FRIDAY is EARLY โค๏ธ
Objective
To drive immediate sales by promoting an early Black Friday event with up to 50% off sitewide, leveraging urgency and brand visibility through in-store partnerships and a bold visual design.
Why this works
The email creates instant excitement by announcing Black Friday early with a bold red background and large typography, making the discount feel urgent and unmissable while aligning with holiday shopping psychology.
How to implement
Including in-store retail partners like Ulta and Sephora adds credibility and broadens reach, subtly reassuring customers that the brand is trusted and accessible beyond just online channels.
Pro Tip
Add a countdown timer beneath the CTA to reinforce urgency and encourage immediate action, since the 'early Black Friday' messaging benefits from time-sensitive pressure. โข Include a brief testimonial or star rating near the product image to build social proof, especially since the email lacks customer validation despite promoting a major sale.
4. Final Day for Xmas Delivery + 20% OFF ๐
Objective
This email aims to create urgency by highlighting the final day to order for Christmas delivery while simultaneously offering a 20% discount to incentivize immediate purchase, targeting customers who may be็น่ฑซ or have items lingering in their cart.
Why this works
The email brilliantly combines time-sensitive urgency with a compelling discount, framing the final day for Christmas delivery as both a deadline and an opportunity, a dual motivator that reduces hesitation and drives action.
How to implement
By personalizing the message with a friendly, conversational tone and naming the customer service lead, the brand builds trust and lowers perceived risk, making the purchase feel supported rather than transactional.
Pro Tip
Add a visual hero section with product imagery or a festive banner to reinforce the urgency and discount, since the current text-only layout lacks emotional pull and visual hierarchy to guide the eye toward the CTA. โข Include a countdown timer or delivery deadline badge near the CTA to amplify urgency visually, as the current text-based 'last day' message may not register as strongly without a dynamic, time-sensitive visual cue.
5. 20% off on Amazon ๐
Objective
This email aims to drive immediate sales during Amazon Prime Day by promoting a limited-time 20% discount on Blumeโs best-selling skincare products, encouraging customers to shop directly on Amazon without needing a promo code.
Why this works
The email leverages urgency and platform-specific appeal by tying the discount to Amazon Prime Day, making the offer feel exclusive and time-sensitive while tapping into existing Prime customer behavior.
How to implement
Each product is clearly labeled with its target skin concern and original vs. discounted price, helping shoppers quickly self-identify which item solves their specific need without extra friction.
Pro Tip
Add a countdown timer beneath the CTA to reinforce urgency, since the offer is only valid Oct. 10โ11, which could nudge hesitant shoppers to act immediately. โข Include a short customer testimonial or star rating next to each product to build social proof, especially since the email targets new or uncertain buyers who may need reassurance before purchasing.
6. okay but why is everything selling out
Objective
To create urgency and drive immediate sales by highlighting fast-selling items and promoting Blumeโs extended Black Friday sale with significant discounts, while reassuring customers that popular items wonโt be restocked once sold out.
Why this works
The email opens with a disarmingly honest tone that acknowledges the urgency without being pushy, making the reader feel trusted rather than pressured, a smart emotional hook that builds rapport before the pitch.
How to implement
By listing specific sold-out items and low-stock alerts, the campaign leverages social proof and scarcity in a transparent way, turning inventory updates into persuasive triggers that motivate immediate action without sounding manipulative.
Pro Tip
Add a visual countdown timer or 'X items left' indicator next to low-stock products to amplify urgency and give users real-time feedback, making the scarcity more tangible and actionable. โข Include a mini product grid or carousel of top-selling or nearly sold-out items directly in the email body to reduce friction, users shouldnโt have to click through to discover whatโs trending or disappearing.
7. Last Call ๐จ 20% off Prime Day Deal
Objective
This email aims to create urgency and drive immediate purchases by reminding subscribers that itโs the final day to take advantage of a 20% discount on all Blume products during Amazon Prime Day, with no code required and free shipping included.
Why this works
The email leverages time-sensitive urgency with a clear 'last day' message and emoji-driven visual cues to trigger immediate action without overwhelming the reader with unnecessary details or distractions.
How to implement
By explicitly stating 'no code needed' and 'free prime shipping,' the email removes friction points that typically deter impulse purchases, making the offer feel effortless and instantly redeemable for the customer.
Pro Tip
Add a visual countdown timer or bold 'HOURS LEFT' indicator near the CTA to amplify urgency and make the time constraint more visceral for skimmers. โข Include a small product grid or hero image of top-selling Blume items to visually anchor the offer and help customers quickly identify whatโs included in the discount.
8. 2025 so far + a little tease ๐
Objective
This email aims to build emotional connection and anticipation by sharing a personal update from the CEO, while teasing an upcoming product launch to drive sign-ups for an exclusive discount. It reinforces brand values around consistent, healthy skincare over perfection.
Why this works
The CEOโs personal story about turning 33 and preparing for her wedding humanizes the brand, making skincare feel like a shared journey rather than a transactional need, which builds deeper trust and loyalty.
How to implement
Teasing a new launch with the phrase 'a launch youโre going to LOVE' creates emotional anticipation without revealing details, leveraging curiosity and exclusivity to drive immediate sign-ups for the discount.
Pro Tip
Add a visual countdown timer or 'limited spots' indicator near the CTA to create urgency around the exclusive launch discount, encouraging faster sign-ups before the offer feels less exclusive. โข Include a short testimonial or user-generated photo from the Valentineโs event mentioned to validate community engagement and social proof, strengthening the emotional pull of 'seeing this community come together IRL.'
9. NEW ๐ Mother's Day Bundle
Objective
This email aims to drive immediate purchases of Blumeโs limited-edition Motherโs Day Bundle by highlighting its value proposition and emotional appeal, while also promoting a co-branded giveaway to expand reach and engagement.
Why this works
The email brilliantly ties emotional gifting with practical skincare benefits by framing the bundle as 'Momโs 2-step routine for glowing, even, hydrated skin,' making it feel both luxurious and purposeful for the recipient.
How to implement
By visually anchoring the $24 savings in a starburst graphic next to the product imagery, the campaign creates instant perceived value without overwhelming the viewer, which is ideal for impulse-driven holiday shoppers.
Pro Tip
Add a countdown timer beneath the CTA to create urgency around the limited-edition bundle, which would reinforce the 'limited edition' claim and nudge procrastinators toward immediate action. โข Include a brief testimonial or user quote near the product image to validate the 'best sellers' claim and build trust, social proof is missing despite the strong emotional and visual appeal.
10. LAST CALL ๐งก 20% off everything on Amazon
Objective
This email aims to drive immediate purchases by alerting subscribers to a time-sensitive 20% discount on all Blume products during Amazon Prime Day, leveraging urgency to convert interest into action before the sale ends at midnight.
Why this works
The email opens with a warm, conversational tone and uses an emoji to immediately signal urgency and emotional connection, making the promotion feel personal rather than transactional.
How to implement
It clearly states the discount applies to 'everything' with no code needed, removing friction and reducing hesitation by simplifying the redemption process for time-pressed shoppers.
Pro Tip
Add a visual countdown timer or bold 'ENDS TONIGHT AT MIDNIGHT' banner to reinforce urgency more viscerally, since text alone may not trigger immediate action in crowded inboxes. โข Include a small product grid or hero image of top-selling items to help shoppers visualize what to buy, reducing decision fatigue and increasing conversion likelihood during time-sensitive sales.
