If your sales are flat, don’t toss out your offer just yet.
Nine times out of ten, you don’t need a new offer—you need a better frame.
It’s not that your products or services aren’t valuable. It’s that your target audience doesn’t see the value fast enough. They’re missing the urgency, the clarity, the hook that makes them stop scrolling and start buying.
And if you’re running a live event, promoting a live stream, or trying to boost sales on an upcoming event, the frame you use around your offer will make or break your results.

Why Great Offers Still Flop Without the Right Frame
Every marketer knows what it feels like to pour energy into a launch, press publish… and hear crickets.
You followed the “right” marketing strategies, posted across all your social channels, maybe even ran some Facebook ads, but still no traction.
The truth? You didn’t give your audience a reason to care right now.
People buy what they believe will deliver a memorable experience, solve a problem, or position them for growth. But if your offer isn’t framed around that desire—if it’s buried in bullet points—they scroll right past.
How to Reframe for Urgency, Emotion, and Relevance
Want people to start selling tickets to themselves before you even pitch? Here’s how the pros do it:
1. Frame with urgency (without feeling pushy)
Use strategic scarcity—not fake urgency, but honest limitations. This could mean:
A real early-bird deadline
A promo code that expires on the day of the event
A limited number of in-person seats for a live performance or networking event
Done right, this doesn’t just increase sales—it gets people emotionally invested. It gives them skin in the game.
2. Frame with transformation, not features
People don’t show up because you’ve got a stacked agenda. They show up because they want to connect, grow, or be changed.
So whether you’re marketing an event, writing social posts, or sending an email, lead with:
The vision
The before-and-after
The real-life change they’ll walk away with
Include real-world examples, past wins, or testimonials from similar events. Show, don’t just tell.
3. Incentivize action on the spot
Want to drive conversions from your lead generation? You need an irresistible frame and a reason to move now.
Here’s where event marketers get smart:
Use different price points based on registration timing
Incentivize with bonuses (access to speakers, special networking events, merch, etc.)
Create FOMO through social sharing and behind-the-scenes content for future events
The Frame Isn’t Just in the Copy—It’s in the Experience
Think bigger than headlines. If you want to promote your event and keep people engaged from opt-in to the day of the event, the frame has to extend through the whole experience.
That means your:
Pre-launch buzz via email and social channels
Onboarding after ticket purchase
Live stream visuals and vibe
Touchpoints during the live event
And the follow-up after it’s done
Planning your event? Build the frame first. Before the schedule. Before the deck. Before the speakers.
The best practices in event marketing don’t start with “what do we want to teach?”
They start with “how do we want people to feel?”
The Frame Gets You the Stage
Whether you’re hosting or pitching to get a stage to speak, your ability to frame your offer with clarity and energy is what earns you attention, trust, and action.
It’s what creates trust and credibility with your new prospects, turns browsers into buyers, and transforms in-person events into profitable, repeatable engines.
You don’t need to reinvent your offer.
You just need to make it impossible to ignore.
