Tired of the Black Friday chaos?


Pre-PS: If you only read one line of this email, let it be this: Black Friday is for businesses that hustle. September is for businesses that scale smart. My free workshop on September 11 will help you grow your list, plan your sales, and enjoy your holidays—without the burnout. Save your seat!

Picture this, Reader.

A position opens at a company you’ve been dreaming of working for.

You polish up your resume, and toss your hat in the ring for the job.

You feel really good about the experience you bring to the table. You know you’re more than qualified.

There’s just one problem👇

You’re competing against everyone else who also applied for this position at the same time.

You start to worry that your resume will be lost in a sea of many. That they’ll never see how amazing you are because there’s a stack of applicants this thick.

Corporate moms and corporate “drop-outs” – I know you’ve been there!

Feeling like a needle in a haystack when applying for a job is the exact feeling I’d get when running Black Friday Sales.

Don’t get me wrong, Black Friday can work for some…

But it never felt good for my business – or nervous system – to put all my effort into a sale that ran once a year and at the same time as everyone else.

Compete with hundreds of other businesses just to hopefully get noticed, while discounting my services?

That’s not a strategy I can feel good about. No matter how popular. :)

Long story short: I no longer rely on Black Friday to meet my Q4 goals.

In today’s podcast episode, I walk you through what I do instead to prepare for holiday launches and end the year strong.

➡️ Spoiler: Successful holiday promos start now, in September.

Not next month.

And definitely not on Black Friday!

Tune in HERE for the inside scoop on how to –

  • Map out your holiday sales now, to avoid last-minute panic.
  • Fill your email list with ideal clients before your sale.
  • Structure your calendar so you can unplug and still hit your goals.

Plus, I’ll also give you real examples of how to organize your Q4 launches without a Black Friday push!
