Day 24: Discounting Is Killing Your Margins. Do This Instead.

Let’s talk about the quick fix that’s quietly draining your business:

Discounting.

It feels like a win:
“20% off for new clients!”
“$10 off this week only!”

And sure, you might get a few extra bookings…

But here’s what you lose:

  • Profit

  • Brand value

  • Client trust

  • And often, repeat business

What’s not working:

  • You discount to chase volume

  • You run promos when things feel slow

  • You hope price cuts will bring loyalty

  • You’ve never built a long-term retention strategy

Discounts train clients to wait.
They don’t build loyalty.
They build shoppers.

What you’re looking for:

✅ Clients who pay full price—and stay
✅ A way to boost bookings without cheapening your service
✅ Offers that drive urgency and protect margins
✅ A strategy that builds real demand over time
✅ A brand people trust—because you respect your own value

Do this instead:

  1. Build a first-visit experience that over-delivers

  2. Use value-adds, not discounts (free upgrade, bonus service, limited-time bundle)

  3. Create loyalty rewards for rebooking, not random walk-ins

  4. Raise your prices strategically, not emotionally

  5. Market consistency, not desperation
