Ahh… Black Friday.
It’s a time of the year that I affectionately like to call “silly season”.
Not because anyone choosing to take part is silly, but because it’s a time of the year when the clamour for attention between brands gets super noisy.
Everyone is vying for your attention. You’ll get emails from people that have been quiet for months, sometimes even years. Your eyeballs are now a currency.
Mel and I have embraced Black Friday over the last few years by introducing our own celebration of our customers – Funnelventura.
We understand that this time of the year is exciting for digital agency owners. You can stock up on software, plugins, tools, courses and more at crazy discounted prices.
This year, we’ve reached out to some of our friends and put together a list of deals that we think will help you – the digital agency owner, designer or marketer.
The Deals
These are tools or products that we either own ourselves, have used and recommended or come highly recommended by people we trust.
Important affiliate links note:
From time to time we will use affiliate links, but you won’t find any in this post. There are far too many Black Friday posts created by people who only want to get affiliate revenue from their recommendations. Sure, if you write a great review or add value – you can add an affiliate link. But if you write two sentences and use affiliate links, you’re just using your audience as a cash machine.
So please enjoy this curated list of Black Friday deals. Be safe in the knowledge that they come recommended without any sort of monetary kickback to us.
