Listen Later

If you’re running discounts or specials and still hearing crickets, this one’s your reality check. In this Marketing Monday mini episode, Allyson breaks down the real reason your promos are falling flat — and how to fix them for good. It’s not about offering deeper discounts — it’s about clarity, urgency, and warming up your audience the right way.


What You’ll Learn:

  • The 3 most common promo mistakes:

    • Vague offers with no context

    • Zero urgency or limited spots

    • Promoting to a cold audience

  • What makes a promo actually convert

  • How to structure a limited-spot CTA that gets DMs

  • Why “blast and hope” isn’t a strategy

  • What to look for in your last promo (and how to improve it)

  • Free resource: Grab the Promo Playbook Freebie to fix your next offer

  • 📥 Free Promo Playbook Download

  • 💼 Booked Solid Bundle (includes advanced promo strategy templates + DM scripts)

🚨 Estheticians, if your last promo flopped — don’t panic. But do listen.

Because it’s NOT just about giving 15% off and hoping someone bites.
👉 If your promos aren’t converting, this week’s Marketing Monday episode breaks down exactly why — and what to change next time.

We’re talking:
• Why vague discounts (like “$10 off”) don’t drive action
• The power of urgency + real deadlines (and why your audience is ignoring “open all month” promos)
• What to do BEFORE you drop a sale (hint: it’s called warming up your audience)
• How to use one simple phrase — “DM me PROMO” — to build an interested list fast
• Plus, how to check your last promo for what worked and what didn’t

✨ Promotions should book clients, not just look cute.

This episode gives you:
✅ Real strategy
✅ Tangible fixes
✅ The mindset shift you’ve been needing
