Black Friday has long been associated with discounted baby products, from strollers and cribs to clothing and toys.
As the holiday season approaches, it's time for birth workers and doulas to consider crafting their own Black Friday promotions. Here are 5 reasons you should create a Black Friday offer this year!
1. Baby product companies are doing it - because it works
Just because your services don’t fit on a shelf in a store doesn’t mean you shouldn’t use the same tactics that baby companies use to sell billions of dollars of their products. You have something every new parent needs, and it’s long overdue that birth workers start marketing themselves the same way that baby products have been doing for decades. Don’t be afraid to run a sale, advertise, and craft special promotions for seasonal events like Black Friday and Mother’s Day. New parents need to know about you and the wonderful support you offer!
2. Parents-to-be want to spend their holiday money with you - let them
Once Thanksgiving hits, the holiday shopping season begins. And people are READY to spend their money. But only when they feel like they are buying a high-quality product AND getting a great deal. Invite the parents-to-be in your community (and beyond) to spend their holiday dollars with you with an enticing Black Friday offer.
3. Reach new potential clients
Black Friday deals are a great way to reach people outside of your current network. By posting them to online groups, teaming up with local businesses, or adding them to the BeHerVillage Black Friday Newsletter you can use your Black Friday offer as a way to get thousands of new parents introduced to you and your business!
4. If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em
It’s hard to cut through the noise of holiday sales and Christmas shopping promotions to reach parents-to-be and families with messages about your support. Why not use the holiday spirit to promote your own services? People love buying gifts for themselves and others during the end of the year. Crafting a Black Friday offer can help you reach more people during a time that birth and postpartum care is the last thing on their minds. What better gift than the gift of your support?
5. It’s easy and effective
Crafting an effective Black Friday offer doesn’t have to be hard. Create a snazzy title, a short and sweet description, and a steep discount and you’re halfway there. Next, you create urgency and anticipation through smart promotion! Create a sense of missing out by adding a deadline or a limited number of people who can purchase your offer. Make people feel like they will be missing out!
