  • Summary

  • Spring is here, and it’s the perfect time to bring in some extra revenue—even if you don’t add any new subscribers. In this episode, I’m sharing two super simple, super effective ways you can generate quick cash flow this season by creating limited-time, one-time boxes your audience will love. These strategies work, whether you want to clear out inventory or make the most of gift-giving opportunities. Spring is the perfect time to launch limited-time boxes to bring in extra revenue and keep your audience engaged. Two of my favorite spring offers are Mother’s Day Gift Boxes and Spring Cleaning Mystery Boxes. They’re easy to curate, fun to promote, and they provide an injection of cash into my business. One-time boxes serve a specific purpose in your business, giving you a quick revenue boost without the need for new subscribers. One-time boxes are: Easy to market–seasonal urgency or limited quantities A great way to re-engage and re-energize your email list Perfect for testing new themes or audiences A low-commitment way for new customers to try your brand One-time boxes require you to temporarily shift your focus from recurring subscriptions to creating hype and excitement around these one-time purchases. Mother’s Day is like Christmas in May for your business. Make the most of this gift-giving holiday and create one-time boxes. Some examples that have worked great for me and members of Launch Your Box include: Self-care for moms Mom’s Night In “Treat Yourself” boxes for moms to buy for themselves (because yes, moms will buy for themselves) Sarah’s One-Time Mother’s Day Box Pro tips: Start promoting in mid-late April Build a waitlist and create urgency Offer themed packaging and gift notes Ship in early May– make order deadlines clear Price one-time boxes similar to your subscription price or average order value (AOV) Turn extra inventory into profit—without running a clearance sale. Mystery boxes: Create FOMO and excitement Let you surprise and delight customers Help clear shelves of inventory and bring a revenue boost to your bottom line Spring Mystery Boxes Pro Tips: Curate using past box items or extra stock Offer 1–2 price points Include at least one high-value item in each box Make value messaging very clear: e.g., “$100 worth of products for $50” Marketing these seasonal boxes doesn’t need to be complicated. Keep it simple and show up.
