The services that run Independence Day

Each service is $500 a month a la carte. Run one or run the set.

  1. 1

    Business Promotion & Outside Representation

    Builds the offer or promotion attached to the date so attention converts to revenue instead of just impressions.

    First move: Set the offer, the window and the redemption tracking before launch.

  2. 2

    Content That Turns Attention Into Customers

    Produces the posts and short-form cuts that carry the moment on your own channels while the pitch is out.

    First move: Shoot the batch before the week of the date so nothing gets made under pressure.

  3. 3

    Advertising That Captures Demand, Not Attention

    Buys reach on the days demand is already there, so the moment is not left to organic timing. Paid runs in the window, then stops.

    First move: Build the campaign a week early with the date's search terms and cap the flight to the window.

Independence Day questions

When should I start work for Independence Day?+

Send the pitch by Mid May. Start two to three weeks before that to pull the data, write it up and publish the page the link points at. The moment itself lands on 4 Jul (fixed), by which point the work is already out.

Which service leads Independence Day?+

Business Promotion & Outside Representation leads it. Builds the offer or promotion attached to the date so attention converts to revenue instead of just impressions. The rest of the services on this page handle the follow-through once attention arrives.

Is Independence Day worth it for my business?+

It fits travel, food, pet, insurance, retail. If you cannot bring a number from your own records to the angle, skip the date and pick one you can speak to honestly. A date with no data behind it does not earn coverage.

What does running this cost?+

Every service is $500 a month a la carte, so a moment run with three services is $1,500 a month while it is live. Packages start at $1,500 a month for Lite.
