How to plan an ecommerce promotional calendar for steady, profitable growth

A 40% discount on a 50% margin product doesn't cost you 40% of your profit. It costs you 80%. In this episode of The Brand Marketing Show, Catherine Langman walks through the arithmetic almost nobody runs before building a big sale campaign, what happens to revenue in the months afterwards, and seven ways to build an ecommerce promotional calendar that doesn't depend on four enormous weekends a year. Covers the peak-event model and what it genuinely asks of a business, why customers acquired on deep discount so rarely return at full price, the difference between discounts that change customers and discounts that select for different ones, and the energy cost of running a business built around peak trading events. Marketing strategy for premium, founder-led ecommerce brands that want profitable, sustainable growth. Book a Brand Growth Strategy Session: https://www.productpreneurmarketing.com/
