🙅‍♂️ Avoid Black Friday Regrets
|
Black Friday is around the corner, and there will be many software deals. These offers might seem great, but be careful. It’s easy to make purchases you might regret later. Why I’m telling this? Few years ago, I bought a Black Friday deal for a software tool that looked promising. Unfortunately, it didn’t meet my expectations. When I asked for a refund, I was told refunds weren’t eligible for Black Friday deals! I know, bummer! But, no one wants to make those same mistakes. 💠Here are Things to Be Careful About: ➡️ Impulse Buys: A survey found that 84% of all shoppers have made impulse purchases and often end up buying things they didn’t plan for. Always ask yourself: Do I really need this? ➡️ No Refunds: Like my case, some deals come with strict no-refund policies, so always check the terms before purchasing. ➡️ Misleading Discounts: Some prices are inflated before discounts to make deals seem better than they are. 💠Tips for Smarter Shopping: 📌 Make a List: Write down the software (or anything) you actually need. Stick to your list, no matter how tempting other offers seem. 📌 Research Policies: Before buying, check the store’s return and refund rules. If refunds aren’t allowed, think twice. 📌 Compare Prices: Look at prices from different retailers and watch out for hidden subscription renewals. So if you’re going to purchase any software deals or tools to improve your workflow or business, or even anything for daily life, shop smart and carefully. You can get good Black Friday deals without feeling bad about your purchases later. If you need help finding the right tools (not just deals) for your business, check out my Small Business Digital Essentials Handbook. This guide lists tools I’ve carefully chosen that can help you save time and money. Some of these might even have good Black Friday deals! Just remember to think before you buy! Happy (and smart) shopping! Minosh. ​ |

Ever noticed how some newsletters just feel different? I still remember the first time someone hit reply to my weekly email and shared how useful and helpful it was for him.
