Black Friday deals aren’t exclusive to buying gifts for the season, if you didn’t know now you know. If you’re like me, you’re a cyber Monday kind of person, but that’s beside the point. The point is that there are probably a ton of things you need in your life and in your business that you should be taking advantage of this time of year!
Most of my business nowadays is online. So if I don’t think of something that you might need let me know in the comments below! I’ll be using some from my previous work experience too but it might not be a perfect list.
Black Friday means Work Attire!
If there’s one thing I remember about not working in your pajamas constantly it’s how dang fast I blew through clothes! When I was a waitress it was inhuman how fast I went through clothes. Not including a couple of times I’d rip a shirt at the shoulder from the way I picked up a tray. Or the time I ruined a pair of shoes from breaking the maraschino cherry container.
Even as a Food and Beverage Manager it was insane how many clothes I went through! The coffee stains (when I had to barista). The shoes (they now were a little prettier and less sturdy). And then just the style of clothes. Why would I buy a $10 shirt from H&M if I was planning to get it laundered every time I wore it.
The point is, do yourself a favor and get your essentials for work as far as clothes go! Get three pairs of shoes, 5 shirts, 5 pants, or whatever else you need. And get the best kind that you can find on sale!
Talking about essentials.
Black Friday means everything is up for grabs. Get all the office supplies or other essentials you can think of! Here are a few things I thought of.
- Pens/Pencils/Markers
- Calendars
- Three-hole punch and binders
- Post its
- Staples/stapler
- Paper clips
- Highlighters
- Folders
Those are just a handful of little things though. Remember to get the big things you’ve been thinking of! The desk, the new chair, a new computer, a new phone. Whatever else you can think of that you’ve been needing to take your work to the next level.
Just remember when you’re planning this out think about where you want to be in the next five years, ten years, the rest of your life. As the great Les Brown video on YouTube “It’s Possible.” had said, the days of working 40 years and retiring with a gold watch are gone. Now, you might switch jobs, maybe even change careers, but you’re more than likely going to be there for a long time, if you didn’t know.
Where do you see yourself in 20 years?
Plan for that now! Black Friday deals are the best way to not just test out where you think you might want to go next but also to plan for it. Meaning, you can get a super cheap discount on something like web hosting, courses, or something else you might want to do.
This is a great time to plan out that side hustle! Why I mention blogging is obviously because that’s what I do and I love it! So not only can you get a super deep discount on blog hosting service like Bluehost, but tons of online creators are offering their courses to get started at a discount too! I know that right now Bluehost was doing 60% off!
Certain course creators are also doing super deep discounts. My favorite for blogging is It’s a Lovely Life by Heather and Pete Reese. The best one to get started with and see if you even want to blog is Start A Blogging Business 5 Day Course. It’s what got me started and it’s chock full of great information! If you decide that you’d like to start a blog then you’ll definitely need their Blogging Blastoff course! I wouldn’t have been able to get where I am now without it.
And of course, if you’re a little unsure check out Why I Started Blogging! In that post, you’ll also be able to check out some of Heather and Pete Reese’s other courses that include how to travel blog, Pinterest course, SEO course, and more!
Black Friday Deals wouldn’t be complete without mentioning the most important deal of all!
So if you don’t already know, I do have my own course! It’s a labor of love that I’ve been compiling for years and it’s been the secret to my success as a blogger and business owner. It’s called Attraction Marketing 101 and it will now be discounted at $19! This is a blog exclusive right now so get in before the price goes back to its usual $47.
This course will outline your success on all of the major social media channels, how to brand yourself, and how to market yourself without being salesy! This is perfect for anyone with a blog or a business of their own!
Why I put this together for you is because I get it, I’ve been there. I thought that just getting a business and setting up a website meant that I would instantly start getting sales and people interested in what I had! I was wrong, very wrong. So if you feel anything like I did, like everything you’re trying to do, you just can’t quite make those sales happen, then please join!
This is where I dive deeper into how to go live on the different social media channels, what is attraction marketing, and how to set up your business and network properly. I wanted to build my own business because I wanted more time with my family, to travel, to live peacefully, to get the most out of my time on earth. Building a stream of income that works when I’m not working is how to do that! Like Warren Buffet’s quote, “If you don’t find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die.”
Satisfaction guarantee always. Any comments, questions, concerns I am always here to answer them as well. So seriously, what are you waiting for? If 2020 has taught anyone anything it’s that nothing is a guarantee. Start building your future now!
