Every year it seems like the talk of Black Friday promotions comes earlier and earlier, and while that may not be great from a consumer-perspective, through the business owner lens, it’s never too early to start thinking about Black Friday promotions.*
*Critical note – I’m not advocating promoting your Black Friday deal in August., but that August is the time YOU should start your promo planning. So before you break out in a cold sweat, take a deep breath, this is all about planning.
Rule of marketing thumb in business is to think in terms of “Christmas in July”….so by the time summer rolls around, you’ll want your mind to be in holiday marketing mode.
Now, if you’re a little behind the 8-ball with your spa’s Black Friday/Cyber Monday promotion, not to worry, there is still plenty of time to pull together a well-planning promotion without flying by the seat of your pants.
That’s exactly why I’m focusing this episode of Spa Marketing Made Easy on the breakdown and my top tips on my three go-to promotions that you can run for your spa’s Black Friday special.
It’s a quick listen, but packs a punch of info you can take and run with.
So tune in and be sure to let me know when you’re off to the races!
