Drink offers that cover the shipping
| Offer | Why it suits drinks | What the ad shows |
|---|---|---|
| Multi-pack price (Sora's choice) | A bigger order spreads the shipping cost; customers stock up anyway | The pack price, the usual price, free shipping |
| Variety pack at a set price | Lets new customers try every flavor without a risky full case | Every flavor in the pack and one price |
| Subscribe and save | Drinks run out on a schedule, which suits a subscription | Price per delivery, how often, skip or cancel |
| Free shipping threshold | Fine as a second line; heavy parcels make it valuable to the shopper | The threshold under the main offer |
Compare with your own everyday price. Sora's "usually $58" is two packs at its regular $29, so the saving is real and easy to check.
Show the can, say the taste
Drinks are bought on taste, and an ad can't pour one. The four Sora ads each solve that differently: a big price for people who already know it, three checkable facts for people who don't, a customer's words on taste, and a stock-the-fridge habit. Pick the angle by who you're talking to: past customers need the price, new ones need a reason to switch.
Keep the can large and the label readable, and keep nutrition claims to what the can says (zero sugar, 5 calories) so the ad matches the product people receive.
The drinks Black Friday calendar
| Date (2026) | What happens | What it means for your ads |
|---|---|---|
| By Fri, Nov 13 | Black Friday ads made, checked and uploaded to Meta with a scheduled start date | Meta reviews most ads within 24 hours, some take longer, and any change to an ad's creative starts a new review. Two weeks leaves room for a rejection and a fix. |
| Mon, Nov 16 to Sun, Nov 22 | The sale ads sit in the ad sets they will run in | An ad set leaves Meta's learning phase after about 50 results in the week after its last significant edit, and adding a new ad counts as one. Set the sale up now and leave it alone while it runs. |
| Fri, Nov 27 | Black Friday: the sale starts | Write the dates in the ad ("Fri Nov 27 to Mon Nov 30"). It does the job of a countdown and it stays true. |
| Mon, Nov 30 | Cyber Monday: the last day of most sales | "Ends Monday, Nov 30" is true urgency. Swap the sale ads for gift and shipping ads the next morning. |
| Tue, Dec 1 to Thu, Dec 17 | Holiday hosting | Stock-the-fridge ads for parties and visitors, with the ground shipping date in mind (cases are heavy, so ground is the usual choice). |
| Thu, Dec 17 | USPS recommended send-by date for Ground Advantage and First-Class Mail (lower 48 states) | Your last "arrives by Christmas" ad for ground shipping ends this date minus your packing time. |
| Late December | New year resets | Zero-sugar drinks can lead with the swap (soda for sparkling water) once the gift season ends. |
