Black Friday is a prime opportunity for course creators and membership site owners to increase sales, attract new customers, and boost engagement. But with countless offers competing for attention, how can you make sure yours stands out?
By combining smart strategies with the right tools, you can streamline your promotion efforts and maximise your results. Here’s how:
Offer Value That Resonates
Your Black Friday deal should be more than a discount—it should solve a problem or meet a need for your audience.
- Bundle Offers: Group your most popular courses with exclusive resources to create a high-value package.
- Limited-Time Bonuses: Add irresistible extras, like templates, live coaching sessions, or access to a private group.
- Membership Perks: Discount annual plans or offer an extended free trial to encourage sign-ups.
Think about what would make your audience feel like they’re getting an unbeatable deal.
Build Anticipation Before Black Friday
The best campaigns don’t start on Black Friday itself. Warm up your audience in the weeks leading up to it:
- Email Teasers: Send sneak peeks and countdowns to your list.
- Social Media Hype: Use engaging posts and stories to generate excitement.
- VIP Early Access: Reward your most loyal followers with exclusive first dibs on your offer.
Having a consistent pre-launch plan can significantly increase your Black Friday success.

Plan for Strategic Planning
Timing matters. Here’s a quick guide to keep your campaign on track:
- 2–3 Weeks Before Black Friday: Start teasing your offer and building excitement.
- Black Friday Weekend: Post consistently and send reminders to create urgency.
- After Cyber Monday: Follow up with thank-you emails and upsells for even more value.
A clear timeline helps you stay organised while keeping your audience engaged.
Focus on Conversion and Retention
Black Friday is just the beginning. Once you’ve made the sale, shift your focus to creating a stellar customer experience:
- Send a welcome email to help customers get started with your course or membership.
- Offer additional resources or next steps to keep them engaged.
- Use feedback to improve your future offerings and campaigns.
When customers feel supported, they’re more likely to stick around and become loyal fans.
