Black Friday Campaign Agency
A performance-based agency that proactively reaches out to e-commerce and SaaS companies to plan and execute high-converting Black Friday (and other seasonal) sales campaigns, taking a cut of revenue generated.

The idea is a specialized agency that focuses exclusively on designing and executing Black Friday (and other seasonal campaign) sales strategies for e-commerce, SaaS, and info-product companies. The agency reaches out cold around August/September, offers to handle the entire campaign — copy, email sequences, ad creative, bundle architecture, gift strategy — and takes a percentage of revenue generated rather than a flat retainer. This aligns incentives perfectly: clients have little downside risk, and the agency profits only when it delivers results.
The speakers explicitly mention this is a real gap: most companies either skip Black Friday entirely, do a lazy straight-discount, or have no idea how to structure bundles, free gifts, store-credit tricks, or renewal pushes. A team that deeply understands these mechanics and can execute across multiple clients simultaneously during a short, high-leverage window could generate massive revenue in a few weeks per year, then run summer sales, Prime Day piggybacks, and back-to-school campaigns the rest of the year.

03 THE VERDICT
The performance-fee model eliminates the hardest sales objection, the seasonal focus creates intense but manageable workflow, and most small/mid e-commerce companies genuinely lack this expertise. The speakers are living proof it works — they're already doing it and making millions for clients. Starting with a few clients on revenue share, proving results, then scaling to a retainer+rev-share hybrid is a clear path to a highly profitable boutique agency.
