 TRAFFIC VS. REVENUE BY DEVICE NOV 1–DEC 2, 2019 Source: Adobe Analytics Black Friday (Nov. 29th) and Cyber Monday (Dec. 01) set new spending records in the United States with $7.5 billion and $9.4 billion in online sales estimated by Adobe Analytics. Both daily totals represent a growth of nearly 20% over last year's records. Not only is online spending skyrocketing, but customers are also choosing to make more purchases via smartphones. On Cyber Monday, for example, smartphones accounted for more than one-third of all sales, an increase of over 40% over last year. Adobe expects that online holiday spending will reach over $140 billion, with Cyber Week (which includes Black Friday and Cyber Monday) accounting for around 20% of that total.  Although the increase in spending seen during Cyber Week echoes broad industry trends, big retailers do get a bigger boost from the holiday season than their smaller competitors. Adobe estimates that big retailers ($1B+) see a holiday revenue boost of close to 65%, which is close to double what their smaller competitors ($50M<) experience at 35%.
Advertising is a vital part of the equation for any retailer trying to capitalize during this holiday period. Adobe estimates that paid search was accounted for over 24% of sales (up from 5.2% last year), just edging out direct traffic (21.1%) and "natural" search (18.8%). Although social media isn't as successful at driving sales, accounting for only 2.6% of sales, its role as an influencer is growing as it drove 8% of visits (a growth of 17.5% from last year).
