Pre-Price Rise Urgency Campaign
Type: Campaign | Priority: HIGH | Date: 9–15 March 2026
Pricing Context
Current pricing (until ~16 March):
- GIL+ (single tier): $8/mo or $80/yr
New pricing (from ~16 March):
- GIL+ (single tier): $11/mo or $99/yr
Price increase:
- Monthly: +$3/mo ($8 → $11)
- Annual: +$19/yr ($80 → $99)
This campaign runs 9–15 March to create urgency for locking in the $80/yr rate before it increases to $99/yr on 16 March. The messaging should be transparent and helpful (not manipulative) — positioned as “fair warning so you can lock in current rates.”
Note: The three-tier structure (Base/Grower/Pro) launches on 23 March with physical welcome kits. This campaign is purely about the price increase on the existing digital-only GIL+ product.

GIL+ pricing is changing soon
Lock in the current rate before 16 March -- here's what you need to know.
Hey {{first_name}},
Heads up -- GIL+ pricing is changing on 16 March.
We're introducing new tiers with more features, more value, and more ways to grow. But the current pricing won't be around much longer.
Right now, you can start a 30-day free trial on our annual plan and lock in today's rate. That means you get everything GIL+ offers -- quarterly heirloom seed deliveries, expert growing guides, member discounts, and more -- at the price it is right now.
After 16 March, the new tier structure kicks in and pricing goes up. If you've been thinking about joining, this is the time.

Hey {{first_name}},
This is your final nudge. GIL+ pricing changes tomorrow, 16 March.
After that, the current rate is gone. We're moving to a new tier structure with more options, but the entry price is going up.
If you start your 30-day free trial today, you lock in the current annual rate. That's quarterly heirloom seed deliveries, expert guides, 15% off the GIL shop, and full access to everything GIL+ has to offer -- at the price it is right now.
Tomorrow, the new pricing goes live. We won't be sending another reminder.
