You Don't Need to Slash Prices to Win Black Friday - Here's What to Do Instead

It’s that time again—Black Friday season.
 But before you start slashing prices or running last year’s promo, let’s pause.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on how I went from a desperate Black Friday sale in 2020 to a strategic, community-focused tradition that drives real results—without discounting my worth.

We’ll talk about:
 ✨ How to identify your best offers (and when not to discount)
 ✨ Creative ways to collaborate locally and drive visibility
 ✨ Building long-term loyalty instead of one-day deals

Plus, I’m re-releasing my fan-favorite “Slay Your Black Friday” episode to help you put your strategy into action.

Let’s make this year’s sale your most aligned—and profitable—yet.
