5. Leveraging Discount Codes and Flash Sales

Part 6 • Post-Launch Strategy (Week 2+)

Discount codes and flash sales create urgency and can clear out slower-moving designs.

<ul> <li><strong>"Loyalty Discount":</strong> Offer a 10-15% discount to your email subscribers as a thank you.</li> <li><strong>"Flash Sale Weekend":</strong> Announce a 24-48 hour sale on specific items.</li> <li><strong>"Holiday Promotions":</strong> Align discounts with major holidays (Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Christmas).</li> </ul> Use these sparingly to avoid devaluing your products. The goal is to create temporary spikes in sales, not to train your audience to only buy on discount.
