Black Friday. Cyber Monday.
For many heart-centered entrepreneurs, those words carry weight.
They might bring up images of endless emails, flashing countdown timers, and pushy sales tactics. The kind of marketing that feels noisy and corporate, disconnected from the way you actually want to serve.
It’s no wonder so many soulful business owners skip it altogether.
But here’s the truth: Black Friday doesn’t have to be that way. It doesn’t have to drain your energy or make you feel like you’re selling out. It can be an opportunity to connect more deeply with your soul clients and give them an intentional way to say yes to your work.
In this post, I’ll show you how to harness the energy of BFCM in a way that feels aligned, easeful, and true to your mission.
1. Redefine What Black Friday Means for You
Black Friday is not about competing with big-box stores. It’s an energetic moment in the year when people are already open to buying. They’re primed to invest in themselves.
Why not meet them there?
For a visionary, healer, or therapist, this isn’t about hype. It’s about creating a clear and meaningful way for your soul clients to work with you.
Think of it as an invitation. You’re not shouting over the noise. You’re offering something intentional, something that helps them move forward at exactly the time they’re already ready to act.
2. Anchor in Alignment First
Before you create a special or map out a promotion, pause. Ask yourself: How does this offer reflect my mission, my values, and the transformation I provide?
When an offer is aligned, it feels exciting to share. You can talk about it easily. You feel proud of it. Clients can sense that energy.
When it’s not aligned, it feels heavy. You hesitate to promote it. That energy shows too.
That’s why anchoring in alignment matters more than anything else. If you want help getting clear before promo season, my Visionary’s Legacy Brand Alignment Guide is a great place to start.
3. Focus on Connection, Not Noise
The truth is, inboxes fill up fast during BFCM. Everyone is sending “last chance” deals and “don’t miss out” messages.
But your soul clients don’t need another shout. They need to feel seen.
Your edge is intimacy. Write in your own voice. Share why this offer matters to you. Remind them that you understand what they’re working toward and that you can help them take the next step.
And please don’t wait until Black Friday to show up. Nurture your list now. Share insights, stories, and small wins so they’re already warm and engaged by the time your promotion goes live.

4. Create Spaciousness in Your Plan
Hustle energy will drain you faster than anything. That’s not what this season is about.
Create a plan now so you can move through November with calm and clarity.
Decide how long your promotion will run. Will it be one day, a weekend, or a week? Map out your emails and social posts ahead of time. Schedule them so you’re not scrambling on the spot.
When you give yourself this spaciousness, you’ll actually have energy left to connect with clients and enjoy the holiday season.
This isn’t about doing more. It’s about creating enough space to show up with presence.
5. Think Beyond the Quick Sale
Yes, BFCM can bring in a beautiful cash injection. But the ripple effect can be even greater.
This season is also a chance to:
- Grow your email list.
- Increase your visibility.
- Start new client relationships that may evolve long after the promotion ends.
Not everyone will buy right away. But when you create an aligned experience, you plant seeds that keep growing.
Redefine success. The sales you make that weekend are only part of the story. The real power of BFCM is how it fuels the long-term vision of your business and legacy.
Conclusion / Invitation
You don’t have to skip Black Friday just because you’re not a corporate brand. You can join in with intention. You can create an offer that aligns with your mission and connects with the people who are already looking for you.
