ADVICE

Use Price Drops As A Core Strategy

  • Use strategic price drops and seasonal promotions to drive most sales.
  • Offer a very low Black Friday price to convert hesitant buyers and build momentum.
ADVICE

Test Low-Cost, Uncommon Ad Channels

  • Run low-budget paid ads across Facebook, Instagram and Google for steady traffic.
  • Test unconventional channels like Reddit ads because lower competition can reduce cost-per-click.
ADVICE

Nurture New Leads With Education Funnels

  • Send ad traffic to a detailed landing page but capture emails with a lead magnet for slower education.
  • Use recorded trainings, podcast episodes and free mini-courses to nurture prospects before purchase.
