January 15, 2025 by Corinna

Looking for a simple way to generate buzz, get more customers in the door, and boost your farm sales?

In this episode, I’m diving into the power of weekly and daily specials—a tried-and-true marketing strategy that works wonders for farm stores. Whether it’s a one-day flash sale or a themed weekly deal, these specials can create excitement, drive foot traffic, and keep your customers coming back for more.

But here’s the thing: it’s not just about slapping a discount on a product. The real magic happens when you design your offers with intention. How do you create specials that people can’t resist? Where should you promote them? And how do you make them work for your specific farm business?

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why weekly or daily specials are a secret weapon for building loyalty and excitement.
• The key elements of a great offer that keeps people talking (and buying).
• How to promote your specials so they actually drive results.
• Simple ideas for farm-specific specials that work across seasons and products.

If you’re ready to learn how this strategy can help you move product, attract new customers, and build buzz around your farm, this episode is for you!
