Posted by A few minutes ago I visited a travel website where I was offered 10% off if I subscribed to their email list.
I subscribed, checked my email and there was my 10% coupon code, good until 10 days ago.
That’s right… they sent me an expired code.
It’s such a simple mistake but it’s also one that will alienate all new subscribers.
It would take the site owner 5 minutes to go in and update the code… if s/he realized it’s expired.
Don’t make this mistake. If you have dated coupon codes, either run a Javascript code to continually update them, or put it on your schedule to manually change them.
One more thing… bone-beaded mistakes like these are worth money to agency owners. If you work with websites and businesses that need your help, then spotting a problem like this is the perfect foot in the door.
“Hey, you’ve got a gorgeous website, congrats!

Corny?
Maybe.
But I think it’s true.
