In the first episode of Improving Your Float Center from Home: the Bathrobe Chronicles, Ashkahn and Graham covered the special deal that they’re running at Float On during their closure.
Watch the full episode below:
For the deal, they’re offering 25% off floats, and for every float sold they’re donating a float to medical workers when Float On re-opens. They’ve open sourced the campaign, and you can download images (including an editable Photoshop file), the template email they sent to their mailing list, and their full launch plan.
Enter your email to get the materials:
We hope that these are useful for you, either in launching your own campaigns or just getting your creative juices flowing. You’re free to use or change any of these materials (although it would be great if you credit the artist, Kathryn Sullivan, for the image).
Be well, and stay safe out there!
Graham and Ashkahn
