will you be the MVP? Bitly logo ( https://www.bitly.com?utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) A coach with a whistle points to a play diagram on a whiteboard that includes a Bitly link and QR code ( https://www.bitly.com?utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) ************************************************** 3 must-know tactics for your Black Friday playbook ************************************************** 1. The MVP Move It’s 3:49 pm. You’ve just been handed a list of 37 different links and QR codes your team needs for Black Friday. But Janice is still standing there, her face twisted into a painful expression. Either she had gas station sushi for lunch, or she has bad news. “Any chance you can get those to me before end of day?” she asks. End of day? END OF DAY?! It’s already 3:49 pm! Don’t panic. Don’t panic. I wonder if I can just… Bitly Assist chat: asked to make 37 links and QR codes for a Black Friday campaign, Assist asks for the destination URLs and any optional customizations ( https://app.bitly.com/default/home?chatPanel=true&utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) Whoa. That was fast. Add THAT to my plan ( https://bitly.com/pages/pricing/?utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) * * * 2. The QR Sneak The print shop is on the phone. They need the files yesterday. There’s just one teensy little problem: the landing page isn’t built yet. Panic? Not you. You make a Bitly QR code, drop it in the ad and send it off. Once you have that URL, just click "edit" to redirect the QR code, and voilà. Add THAT to my plan ( https://bitly.com/pages/pricing/?utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) * * * 3. The 11:52 Switcheroo You’re down to the wire. Campaign goes live in 8 minutes. Janice has that look on her face. A change? NOW?! Bitly Assist chat: asked to redirect a link, Assist asks which link and where it should redirect to ( https://app.bitly.com/default/home?chatPanel=true&utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) You are so clutch. Add THAT to my plan ( https://bitly.com/pages/pricing/?utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) * * * Bonus: Post-Game Breakdown Black Friday’s over. Finally. Is Janice… slinking? Yes, she’s definitely slinking over to your desk. “Oh hiiiii, any chance you can—” Bitly Assist link performance summary for the last 7 days: 602 total engagements, led by Black Friday Doorbusters with 258, then Cyber Monday Mega Deals with 206 and Black Friday Early Access VIP Sale with 138 ( https://app.bitly.com/default/home?chatPanel=true&utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) “How did you do that so fast?” Add THAT to my plan ( https://bitly.com/pages/pricing/?utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) P.S. you can do ALL OF THESE with any plan above free Facebook ( https://facebook.com/bitly?utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) X ( https://twitter.com/bitly?utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) Instagram ( https://instagram.com/bitly?utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) LinkedIn ( https://www.linkedin.com/company/552285?utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DPT 5006 601 W 26th St. 3rd Floor, STE 357 New York, NY 10010-1101 Privacy Policy ( https://bitly.com/pages/privacy?utm_campaign=261105+%7C+Black+Friday+-+Bitly+Assist+%7C+Free&utm_medium=email_action&utm_source=customer-io ) | Unsubscribe from Tips & How-to ( https://track.customer.io/unsubscribe/dgTuwwwDAJP4gQSS-IEEAaGyDsGEqpVpFTDfco2orQ== ) | Update email preferences ( https://track.customer.io/manage_subscription_preferences/dgTuwwwDAJP4gQSS-IEEAaGyDsGEqpVpFTDfco2orQ== ) © 2026 Bitly Inc.
