There's a little known secret that a lot of SaaS companies, a lot of e-commerce companies, make the majority of the revenue in just one week. That's Black Friday week. But how do you actually implement a Black Friday campaign that's going to get you paid? Well, today, we go through all the techniques to do so. We share all of that with you. We share examples. And by the end of this episode, you will be a Black Friday expert.

I actually recorded this episode a year ago. and I wanted to put it live again because not that many people watched it a year ago. But I think it's one of the most impactful videos to understand how to sell to customers during Black Friday and also just add a sell of them in general. So enjoy this episode. It's with one of my friends, Jonathan Courtney, much loved by the pod. So enjoy, like, and comment for more. Jay Ice Cream, what is this episode about? So it is, as of recording this, it is Black Friday week.

It is one of the biggest weeks of the year in terms of sales for e-commerce companies, for product companies, for info product companies. We are running multiple Black Friday sales for companies this week. And I thought what I've been surprised about is that a lot of companies who sell things, not just services, but like a lot of people who sell like sell products, don't take part in Black Friday. And if they do, they don't really understand the different types of deals

and different types of sales they can do. And so I thought it would be cool to look at some really cool examples of sales that are running right now as this week goes on and look at the different ways you can run Black Friday sales, but also any type of sale. It's not just, oh, I'm going to do a discount. That's like really low level running a sale campaign thing.

Just to give you a feeling, Like a company that's making, let's say, 500K a month or 200K a month could make one to two million dollars in just this week. And a company that's making like 10 million per month or 20 million per month could make like all of their yearly revenue combined in just this one week as well. And so it's not and a lot of people don't understand that, you know, sometimes I talk to entrepreneurs and they're like, I don't want to take part in that. I don't want to take part in like it's too, you know, we're a prestigious brand and like we want to stay away from that kind of stuff. And I'm like, let me show you all the prestigious brands that are more prestigious than you running sales like this. And you just don't understand how to actually do it in a way that's maybe, you know, on brand.

So I think a lot of people are not thinking about Black Friday as a sales opportunity and people who do think of it as a sales opportunity. often completely flub it because they don't know the different types of sales that they can do. We run a Black Friday sale every year. We run Black Friday sales for our customers

and they make millions of dollars and I think we can show you I'd like to show you like some of my favorite examples that are out there right now and teach people a few things they can learn for their own things that they're selling.

That's my idea for today anyway. So a few things. Number one, I like the way you say prestigious Prestigious? What do I say? Prestigious? You say prestigious?

Do I say prestigious or do I say prestigious? No, no, you say prestigious. Let the record show that you say prestigious. That's number one. Number two, you said the word flub. Flub. Which I thought was an incredible word. Lubby.

Write flub in the comments, if you agree with me. And number three, I think, you know the saying, if you make it in New York, you can make it anywhere? Yes. Well, I think if you can do a great Black Friday sale, you can sell anything on the internet. So I'm excited to dive in with you. I have an alternative way of saying that.

If you can do a great Black Friday sale, you can literally fuck up everything for the rest of the year and still have a great year. There we go. You can have your worst year ever full of the worst strategic business decisions and still nail Black Friday and still make it all back. Like, I'll tell you, we've had some, you know, at 2023, we didn't have a great year. Like we, I made some strategic decisions at AJ and Smart that I don't think we're very clever.

And Black Friday was, Black Friday and kind of like summer sale, those made up for some of the sillier decisions or larger expenses. So yeah, that would be my really messy alternative quote for. that. So should we have a look at a couple of these Black Friday sales and kind of look at what they're doing? Like I haven't broken it down into different types yet, but I think there's like, there's companies that do discounts. There's companies that do free bonuses and no discount. There's companies that do bundles with discounts and free bonuses. And there's companies who do sort of like, if you've got like a subscription software service, there's really interesting things people do to get you

to renew as well. So I think there's a mixture of everything. in here from physical products to SaaS products to just like services and stuff like that. So I think I've got a big, I've got a big overview of some nice things. Well, I show you the first one because I can literally just open it on my phone right now. So do you know the product, Endel? Is it a sleeping type thing? Yeah. So they basically do, I'm sorry that this is not really focusing. So Endel basically does different types of noise and soundscapes which help with stress and sleeping and they have like ADHD focus, whatever.

And I personally think it's a really nice product. And my renewal is coming up, but I chose an annual non-automatic renewal last year. And so what's coming up on my screen this year, and I'll tell you what they did last year as well to get me in, they are showing me this 50% off if I renew. And when I tap into it,

and obviously I got a notification about that, and if I tap into it, I'm essentially given a mini landing page within the Endel app, which is showing me all of the benefits that I might have forgotten about. And this sale, this is kind of something that evolves

throughout the Black Friday week, where they might add in a bonus towards the end of the week. Last year, they added in a really nicely designed endel bag. Whoever designed that endel bag, I know you guys are based in Berlin, that bag convinced me.

But yeah, so this is something where if you have a software product or if you have a service where there's an annual renewal doing something around Black Friday, even if that's not exactly the time where people are renewing. So for example, with the PlayStation or Sony this week are doing their Black Friday sale,

they started at last Friday. And they have this PSN service, which is you pay for that service to play multiplayer on PlayStation. And even if you're already a subscriber to PSN, which I am, they'll say, hey, if you want to extend for another year, if you want to add more on, you can do it at a discount during this week. And so that's something which is like a, you're already locked into the system. You're already part of the subscription. But now during Black Friday week, when people are expecting things to be happening. happening and discounts to be happening. They're offering you a way to extend. Whoop is doing the same thing. You'll probably see these boys here, along with doing a lot of like

little bonuses with their bands and everything. But yeah, SaaS products are doing like renewal pushes around this time of the year. And if you're not a member, they're obviously doing their subscription pushes at this time of the year. So that's one example that I really like. if you're running some sort of digital product, some sort of SaaS thing, this is the time of year where you can push people on some sort of nice, juicy renewal plan. You should check out Endel. It's nice. Sam Maltman, the co-founder of OpenAI, just said that it is the era of the idea guy, and he is not wrong.

I think that right now is an incredible time to be building a startup. And if you listen to this podcast, chances are you think so, too. Now, I think that you can look at trends to basically figure out what are the startup ideas you should be building. So that's exactly why I built ideabrowser.com. Every single day, you're going to get a free startup idea in your inbox, and it's all backed by high quality data trends. How we do it, people always ask. We use AI agents to go and search, what are people looking for? and what are they screaming for in terms of products that you should be building?

And then we hand it on a silver platter for you to go check out. We do have a few paid plans that take it to the next level, give you more ideas, give you more AI agents and more, almost like a chatGVT for ideas with it. But you can start for free, ideabrowser.com. And if you're listening to this, I highly recommend it. Is there anything you would do differently? if you were running marketing at Endel?

So we, I think that they're doing a great job, first of all. I think they really put it front and center. I think I would probably take the approach that Magic Mind and AG1 are taking this week, which is I would include the free gifts up front. So the free gift strategy, I think I spoke about it the last time I was, on, but if we maybe open up, do you mind if I just share my screen and open up magic mind just in case this is gone? I don't mind at all. You know what? You know what that's the equivalent of is when you get like, I don't know, maybe you get some oysters or you get a fish and someone

says, do you mind if I lemon it? You know, like put some lemon on it. It's like obviously we don't mind if you put lemon on it. Like no one is going to go. No one is going to get mad at you. for sharing your screen right now. No one's going to get mad of you for putting lemon on the oysters. I'm just to want you to get mad at me, okay? So I think what Magic Mind has done, in my opinion, is like a masterclass in a Black Friday sale. We're emulating a lot of this for the Black Friday sales. We're running. First of all, you obviously get your discount up front. Second of all, you get welcome gifts. And welcome gifts are things that you're only going to get as part of this sale. And so the welcome gifts are you get 90 days access to this open app.

I don't know if you've ever used this open app. It's really nice. You know, it's usually $60. Now it's free. You get the Beyond Coffee book, which teaches you how to become more productive but without coffee. And you also get free shipping as part of a welcome gift. I think they have the same gifts for both. So this is something where not only are they saying, okay, if you just come back to us and

subscribe, we'll give you 50% off, Magic Mind, plus free gifts. That's the thing that actually gets you. It like sweetens the deal. Ag1 are doing the exact same thing. I don't know if you've seen how many gifts they're adding to their thing, but it's been building up for the entire Black Friday month. I'll show you. Let's see if they're presenting this publicly. Yeah, they're calling it their welcome pack. Oh, there, oh, there's some of the, some of the stuff. is only happening in email. So it depends how long you've been in their funnel, I guess. But they're currently doing this.

I'm just going to actually switch it to English because it's on German. Now, we're going to have to do German. I'm sorry. I'm very sorry. Do you mind if we do this in German? That's where I draw the line. So you can see that AG1 right now for Black Friday is doing, two travel packs,

vitamin D, the container and the shaker, all for the price of what you usually just get the bag and the initial shaker for. If you look at their Black Friday email campaign, they've also added in a hat. So sometimes what you can do, and that's what we also do, is you start with a set of free gifts,

and as the campaign goes on, you add more free gifts, which obviously you give to the people who joined early, but it convinces people towards the end of the sale to jump in. And sometimes you can call these Mifke's Most Incredible Free Gifts ever. Sometimes you can call these one time welcome gifts. But it's like a way to, a lot of people do merch, like a one-time merch which you can only get during this period of time.

I just think it's a really, people don't realize how powerful it is to just give someone something to sweeten the deal. and discounts are often not enough. There's another way. Do you want to see like the more prestige way to do it? What is it prestigious? Prestigious? So this is so what people will say to me is like, yeah, but like like, you know,

premium brands like Apple doesn't do that and blah blah, blah. I'm like, all right. All right, motherfucker. Let's take a look at what Apple's doing. Yes, they do something very different, but they still really push. Black Friday and Cyber Monday. So let me show you how Apple make this happen. Apple, and this is something that's also effective and more high brow, this is you buy a product from Apple during this period of time, a non-discounted product, and you get a $200 gift voucher that you can spend on something else from Apple.

So it's not that you're getting a discount. It's not that you're getting a free gift. It's that they're giving you a $200 voucher during this period of time to buy something else from them. And I think that's like a really great way to not cheapen these high quality products and like these kind of, you know, high end products while still technically giving you a discount. They're just not saying it up front. They're giving you a $200 gift card. So they're theoretically giving you a discount because you have to spend it with them, but they're not saying this is a discount.

Can I show you another really, can I show you a cool and really creative one that an e-commerce shop has done? Wait, can I show you, can I show you something? We're the biggest nerds on the internet, I think. Dude, we've, the entire AJ and smart team for the last month, we've just been collecting these and obsessing about them. Show me yours. I'll show you mine if you show me yours. All right.

I'll go for it. No, yeah, go on. Okay, here we go. So what I like about this is Black Friday sale, you have $17.63 in store credit. So instead of doing like buy something and you get a gift card, I think that if people have credit that is, look, hello, Max, you've got store credit, which is about to expire. for good on Sunday. They put your account email

and they say use your code to apply the credit at checkout gainsin bulk.com. And then it's just like it feels like, no, I don't want to lose my credit.

That's my credit. That's really cool. I'm just literally, I just screenshot it and added to our team Black Friday thing. That's really cool. I love that one.

So store credit. So they're basically telling you you've got this store credit. Instead of a discount, instead of a discount, right? Everyone thinks of discounts. I'll give you 10% off, 20% off, 30% off. If the average, you know,

order size is $100 and you were going to give $20 off, right? Instead of saying you have 20% off because everyone is saying you have 20% off, the whole internet is saying you have 20% off, say you have actually don't say you have $20 in credit say you have $21.63 in credit. I love that. That's really cool. That's really nice. I just need to. I want to tell my team this for the next email. So just give me one sec. Can you bring that up on screen again? Because my screenshot didn't actually work. Who's this from? It's from. Jordan on my team sent it to me. So it's from

gains in bulk. Like, what is that even? I wonder what that's about. Oh, no. This is going into one. Yeah, that's, that is so good. Okay. It's like a protein company, right?

Yeah, like creatine, workout candy. Good name. Athletic digestive formula. Yeah. Okay, I'll show you one from my email screenshot whole. So this is another concept, which is, let me see. Can you see my base camp thing? I see growth day.

Yeah, look at this. Yeah, base camp. So this, instead of doing a discount, instead of doing MIFKis, instead of doing anything else, it's, okay, all those things that weren't in one package before are now in one box at like, a slightly better price than buying all of them individually. So and creating a branded element, a new branded product that's now going on sale during this period of time.

I think this is a really cool. It's a really cool way of not just doing something discounty or not just doing something like free gift. It's like, I'm just taking all of this stuff. You see companies like ASOP doing this as well. The hand soap company, or like the beauty company, I don't know. They've bundled like different scents into a box and they're like special things for Christmas, which make you want to buy them for friends. I really like that as a simple repackaging of all the things you already have as a bundle to sell for Black Friday. I like that one.

I like that too. I think, you know, you showed it with, who was it? it, Magic Mind, I thought what was really cool about their kind of bundle is they were giving a free digital product that I don't think they started that company. I don't think so either. Yeah. So I think that. Yeah.

So if you're looking for something to bundle, go reach out to companies that you like. And they're happy because they're getting distribution. like a digital product is free to distribute. And you're happy because you're adding value. And I think like it's such a missed opportunity when I see companies like companies with million dollar Facebook meta budgets and they're just doing straight up discounts. Or I mean, the worst case scenario is they're just ignoring Black Friday because they don't. Like if you talk to someone and they're running an e-commerce site or they're selling things online and you ask them in like September.

Are you guys getting ready for November? And they're like, what do you mean November? I'm like, all right, goodbye. Either you're making too much money or just shit's not working at all. Because you need to know, like from like June, we already knew the 29th of November was coming up. We're already thinking about it. And if you're spending like a million dollars already per month and you're just sending people to a straight up discount, I think that's crazy, especially when this could be your biggest week of the year.

Can I show you a really cool one? Like a really creative one. I cannot tell you whether this works or not because I don't know anything about it. I just think this one's cool. So zero data on this, but vibes. Positive vibes. I need to reach out to the team and ask them

why they decide to do this. Okay, I've always been a fan. By the way, it's also good for your brand. Sip more. Save more, baby. Hell, yeah. So they're doing something kind of interesting. So you can either shop their curation.

kits, which are going to be bundles, or you can build your bundle. And I've been playing around with this. So here's like a whole like little web app for Black Friday. And the more you add to the bundle, the more you save. So there's this checkpoint at $99 after which point. So there's a checkpoint at $59 for free shipping. And there's a checkpoint at $99, which gets you 40% off. This is fucking genius in my opinion. And this is something I'm going to steal for any e-commerce clients we work with in future. So I'm just going to like add things. They add up here. What's really cool is you can see the bundle building up. And now I have free shipping. I wish there was a check mark when you actually got that point, but whatever, we're all good. And we're going to turn this up. And now I have 40% off everything.

And you can see your savings here. I think that's a little bit hard to see, but that's all good. And then you proceed to the checkout and you can see all your savings. I think this is a super, cool one. I love it. It's really nice. And I'm sure you can also add other discount codes. I'm sure there's other things you can also add on there. And I'm assuming that as this campaign goes on, there'll just be more and more stuff. But this is actually a pretty sophisticated Black Friday sale, creating your Black Friday box. I think it's like it wins the SIP Award for best or most creative Black Friday sale, in my opinion. And the SIP award, we know it's a very big deal.

It's huge. So I'm just wondering, did they build that themselves? Because that startup idea, go and just build this and make a Shopify app. It's genius. I would assume that the four-sigmatic guys probably did build it themselves. but I don't know. I think they probably did. But I mean, anyone being out there being able to build something like that for their clients for Black Friday,

like it's, guys, if you're listening to this podcast and you know how to run sales and you have like some proof that you've run sales for yourself or some other clients or you could build that for clients, you need to be reaching out to them approximately August every year. actually a really cool thing happened. So we actually brought in a copywriter, an extra copywriter for this week. And he reached out to us cold, reached out to me cold in August with an email which was like, is your Black Friday sale planned already? Something like that. And he's here now sitting in the office helping us with our campaign just because we have so many campaigns running and so many emails going. And I thought that was like a really clever way to reach out to us. Like copyright. and people who can build things and build little kind of neat little shop ideas for people during Black Friday, they're needed everywhere. Yeah, so that's like another startup idea, which is so you can go and build the software and or you can actually create the Black Friday agency. Yes. Oh, my God. Yes. Yes. And then you can, that's actually brilliant. No, it sounds like,

I know there's going to be people in your audience who are going to like, yeah, whatever, but actually that's excellent. That's a really good idea. Like, well, yeah, that's really good. I love that. That would work. It's like, because all of the ads are going to be, it's your biggest week of the year,

don't squander it. Don't flub it, you know? Don't love it. Oh, man. That's really good. We need to. We might have to do that one. We might have to find a team and invest in it.

I mean, we help people run their Black Friday campaigns, but just from a strategic point of view, just like telling them what they should do, like, and helping them with the copy and stuff. And we've got all the teams literally sitting here. They've flown in for this week and,

and we're just doing that. But an agency that proactively reaches out to companies, e-commerce stores and is like, by the way, like, you're, I can double your sales during this week. I will not, you don't pay me. I'll just take a cut of just the revenue from this sale. Come on.

So with what we're doing just for transparency, we're only taking a cut of the money that's made. So it's kind of like a, it's not a no-brainer because we take a big cut, but it is kind of a no-brainer because these companies weren't going to run these sales in the first place. So it's like a, it is a bit of a win-win.

That dude, Black Friday focused agency, which in general campaigns, right? So what is Black Friday? Black Friday is a campaign. And all of these campaigns. So we run every year, we run a summer sale campaign. We run a Black Friday campaign. We've now started to piggyback on the Prime Day campaign,

the Prime Day sale. And we're looking for other like times of the year to piggyback. For example, like back to school, things like this. Piggy backing on events that happened throughout the year. and running campaigns during these events, a lot of like SaaS people, because as you know, a lot of SaaS people are like anti-ads and ads suck and all marketing sucks.

It all has to be organic. That's fine. But there are massive opportunities. We just looked at a lot of companies now who are running these types of things, including Apple. Oh, the big great Apple are running Black Friday sales. There's just a massive opportunity. opportunity out there to grow your business by piggybacking on these things and running campaigns

during these times where people are expecting to be receiving campaigns. It feels like a no-brainer to me if you can do it in a way that's aligned with your brand. You know what I mean? You know what I mean? I don't know if I asked for your life story over there. Shit, you got me with my own. You got me with my own poison. Okay, so can I show you one last really cool Black Friday sale? Please. So you got me thinking about it because Four Sigma, the one that you just showed, is kind of like a game.

And let me share my screen. So I got this email from Bodega. Bodega is a retail shop and they sell streetware. So I opened it up. They sent me like an email week. I never opened it up. But I got got with this one because they say there's a $200 bodega gift code in this email. Like, okay, you're giving me $200.

Let's go. Got to open. So she's open. Then I say, oh yeah, this code right here is worth $200. Side note, I actually like, I love how their copy is, right? It feels like they're writing me a personal email. Problem is, it's missing a few characters. Could be numbers or letters.

Whoever can solve it and check out with it gets it. First come, first serve. Have fun and good luck. And then they give you the discount code. So this is taking a promo code and turning it into a game, a treasure hunt type thing, really cool. That's cool. I've never seen that before.

I've not seen a company do this. and it's interesting because that getting a $200 gift voucher for a company that sells stuff that probably is under $200 is almost like we've just got free stuff for you. Exactly. That's very cool. While you were showing me that, I was thinking of another one, but I can't remember what it was.

So wait, while I was showing you, you weren't listening, you were thinking about your own thing. You know, on this podcast, my only goal is to make sure sure that your audience is happy. And so I'm trying to think of stuff the whole time. And, you know, because if they don't get, if they don't get what they want, they'll, they'll just attack. That's, that's it. Are you, the actual important question is, what are you buying this Black Friday week? Like, what things are you buying? Um, that's a good question. Like, really boring stuff. I took stock of all the things that I buy repeatedly.

So I buy like the same protein powder. I started taking creatine by this company called Thorn by the same one. So I think it's like a good habit to look at the 20 things that you consume on an ongoing basis and just go and buy them at 20 to 50% off. Yes. That's a really good point. I mean, I do that on Amazon or that's what I did. this morning. I just woke up and you know, you go into like the settings and it just says the buy

again section. And I like bought detergent. I bought like some random, really boring stuff. But yeah, I'll generally go to like the websites of my favorite clothing companies or I'll I'll go on the eight sleep website, see if they've got anything interesting that I don't already have or yeah, that's a really good point just to jump on the things you're using already and just see if you can get like more of it, which is why like I think one thing I buy a lot of is video games. So for me, for me the biggest part of this week is the steam sale which starts tomorrow. So Wednesday. And the steam sale is another thing that's kind of cool because they build an entire like theme and brand around their sale.

Like they get artists to create the art for it. It's like really special. It looks really cool. I'm really excited to just even see. see how the steam sale looks this year. They make it into a proper event. Another thing you can do for Black Friday, and I heard this from a guy called Connor,

who's here with us at the moment in the office, and he said there was these in China for Singles Day. Something that's common is to do like almost like a QVC style thing where you have like influencers on video, like for 12 hours during Black Friday or during Singles Day, just selling stuff and talking about them. So QVC's telemarketing style. We've thought about doing that because it would be fun.

We've done like a one-hour version of it where we were like, you know, doing an ironic version of QVC. But I think there's definitely something to playing around with this almost like semi-ironic, semi-fony, QVC style telemarketing thing where you're like, there's only 20 of these left.

Okay, now there's 10 of them left. I think that like I recently saw cold play. Don't judge me. I recently saw Cole play on QVC. And I was fascinated by how good it actually was. Like they had so many little MIFKies, so many little interesting one-off things, so many bundles you couldn't get anywhere else. I'm not the biggest. I love their first two albums.

I have to admit it. I'm not going to lie. But there was so many things there where I was like, I'm not going to listen to any of this, but I kind of want this handwritten thing. Or I kind of want this poster that no one is going to be able to get. after this session. I think it's kind of cool. Somehow it just like appeals to something in me. Yeah, I wonder, I wonder, you know, thinking about the ad strategy for a live stream.

Like, could you create a live stream on X and then promote it? Like, I wish there was an ad unit that you can promote. I mean, of course you can go and do like static images and be like, there's a live stream, click it, opens up the live stream. But I wonder if there's an ad arbitrage here. We're running, I mean, we're going to, to spend at least 100K on just our own ads this week. I hope you see our ads. They're really silly this year. They're very, very, very silly. I think what I would do is I would have ads running

three days before. I would have ads running on the Monday for an event that's going to happen on the Thursday before Black Friday, just so you have some time. And the ads would be leading to like a fun waiting page for people to register for the live event. And maybe if you register before the event starts, you're given some sort of discount code to use. So you can use that discount code on top of whatever it is that you're going to be seeing during this live stream. I think that would work really well. And I think that would like get a lot. Actually, I want to do that. Now that I've said it, now I actually want to do it. So yeah, you have a live event the day before Black Friday and people, you're sending ads to a landing page, which is a waiting list,

which unlocks a discount code that can be used during the session. that would work. Beautiful. Keep us posted. Let us know how it goes. Black Friday agency. Done. Done.

All right. Jonathan Courtney, J to the ice cream, Jice cream, the unscheduled CEO for, you know, the unscheduled J ice cream. Thank you for being here,

sharing with Alpha. We appreciate you. Thank you so much. I saw maybe I saw in your comments people like, wondering like why am I sharing all this information? I just find it really enjoyable to be able to nerd out with someone and talk about all the stuff. Like, again, I do not have a Black Friday agency, although now we have to create one. And I also don't really have anything.

Like, it's really nice that people are reaching out, but I don't really have any. I can. I'm not, we're not doing agency work for this kind of stuff. So I think just stay tuned to the podcast. That's the, that's the way to find out. more cool stuff about this. I appreciate you. All right, my man.

I'll catch you later. Thank you. We are out.
