Grow Your Business with These Black Friday Sales

If you’re anything like me, you like to plan for Black Friday sales ahead of time for things you actually need instead of getting overwhelmed once all the emails start flowing in. I also know it can feel overwhelming to invest in tools and apps for your business but automating and simplifying where you can is SO important to help grow your business and to avoid burnout.

I also really like to use Black Friday and Cyber Monday to make purchases for business items and apps that I would be purchasing anyway.

Many times I have something that I KNOW I want to invest in for my business but I’ll wait until Black Friday or Cyber Monday to make the purchase.

The sales that I’m sharing today are all tools that will help streamline your business and tools I actually use in my own business. Check them out and if they seem like a good fit, I hope my sale codes can help you a bit. 

I’m publishing this a little bit early so that you have time to plan but please note specific dates for each sale, I’ll add details as I know them.

1. Dubsado – Client Management System

Dudsado is hands down, my favorite biz tool. It’s a business management solution designed to cut out the busywork. Build relationships, schedule appointments, and create workflows to streamline your projects from start to finish.

You can set up a workflow once and then your systems are on autopilot. It captures leads on your website (your contact form, for example), and can automatically send those leads a proposal, then a contact, then an invoice (in whichever order you prefer.) You can set payment reminders, there’s a client portal, bookkeeping, and just so much goodness. 

SALE DETAILS + DATES:
Head to the Dubsado site to see their sale pricing and use my affiliate link or code “CieraDesign” at checkout for an additional 20% off!

In order to be locked in at these sale prices, you must upgrade to a paid account during sale time which extends through 2 pm PT on November 29th.

Tailwind is a game-changer for Pinterest. The majority of the traffic to my website comes from Pinterest (and I bet yours does too). With Tailwind, I can set aside a few hours and schedule content for the entire month. They also have communities to help you grow faster and Tailwind Create so you can create your graphics right on their platform!

3. The Contract Shop – Contract Templates

Gotta be honest, I had NO idea what I was doing with my client contracts until I grabbed my template from The Contract Shop!

Within 10 minutes, I had a contract template and was customizing it to suit my business. It was super easy to add in my own details and I feel waaaay more confident knowing my contract has been vetted by someone who actually knows what they’re talking about! I use their graphic design templates and their terms and conditions template. Want to read more about why contracts are so important?

5. Convert Kit

Your email list is one of the biggest assets your business will ever have. You don’t own your search engine rankings or your social media sites. They can be taken away from you at a moment’s notice. You own your email list. No one can ever take it away from you.⁣⁠

⁠Building an email list is crucial because it’s the best way to build a relationship with potential customers in an intimate way.⁣⁠

⁠Convert Kit has been my email marketing platform of choice for year and years. They have flexible opt-in forms, easy landing pages, email series and SO MUCH more that make it simple to grow your business.

Convert Kit also now has a FREE PLAN which is pretty major of them to add!

SALE DETAILS: Activate the Creator Plan for $199 for the first year. That’s over 30% off the regular price on our most popular plan.

7. Repurpose.io – Auto Repurpose Content

Repurpose.io helps you to make a bigger impact and reach more people, without the extra work. Focus on creating great content and let their platform distribute it everywhere your audience is.

With short-form video being my main type of content these days, repurposing content is a MUST! I connect Repurpose.io to my TikTok and it automatically downloads every video I create to my Dropbox (or Google Drive) – and here’s why this is worth paying for, it saves it WITHOUT THE WATERMARK!

You can automatically publish all your videos (without watermark) to …
TikTok, IG Reels, YouTube Shorts, Facebook Pages and Groups, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Twitter… it’s pretty major!

SALE DETAILS + DATES:
Repurpose.io didn’t end up having a sale BUT if you sign up for the annual plan you get two months free!

8. Canva – Design

As a designer, I ignored Canva for way too long. I thought using my Adobe programs, which is industry standard, was enough. BUT Canva has been so amazing for being able to collaborate with my clients and I’ve received amazing feedback on my Canva templates ever since I launched them in 2019. It’s such an easy and intuitive way to create all the visuals (even video and animated graphics) for your business. Using a template can make content creation so much faster and is a great way to streamline your business.

SALE DETAILS: TBD
