Slow Day? Your Promotion Posts Itself

Adaptive monitors your Square sales in real time. When the day is tracking below target, it auto-posts a flash promotion on Twitter to drive foot traffic — so you focus on customers, not content.

I run a taco truck and some days we do great and some days are really slow. I want to post a deal on Twitter when we're having a slow day but I never remember to do it.

Smart move. Let me connect to your Square account so I can track your daily sales in real time.

Taco Libre · real-time sales tracking

On a normal day we do about $800 by 2pm. If we're below $500 by then, that's a slow day and I'd want to push a deal out.

Got it. I'll check your running total at 2pm every day. If it's under $500, I'll auto-post a promotion to your Twitter. Want me to draft a few variations so it doesn't look like the same tweet every time?

Auto-post when daily sales < $500 by 2 PM

Yeah, make it fun. Something like BOGO tacos or $2 off burritos. Keep it casual — our followers like that vibe.

I've drafted 8 promotion variations — mix of BOGO, dollar-off deals, and combo specials. Each one has a different hook so your feed stays fresh. I'll rotate through them so followers never see the same post twice in a row. You can add more or edit any of them anytime.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about slow day social media promotions.

Adaptive monitors your Square POS sales throughout the day. When revenue falls below a threshold you set, it automatically posts a flash promotion on Twitter from a library of pre-approved posts. You stay focused on customers while the promotion drives foot traffic.

The most impactful approach is connecting real-time sales performance to marketing actions. Adaptive watches your Square sales and triggers promotions only when you need them — on genuinely slow days. This is more effective than fixed-schedule posting because the promotion goes out exactly when it can make a difference.

Yes. Adaptive connects to your Square POS and your Twitter account. You define what a slow day looks like — a dollar amount, a percentage below average, or a transaction count — and Adaptive posts a promotion automatically when the threshold is triggered.

With Adaptive, you review and approve a library of promotional posts once. After that, the system handles everything: it monitors sales, decides when to post, picks a fresh promotion from your library, and publishes it. You do not need to open Twitter or think about what to write.

Adaptive connects your Square POS to your social media accounts and triggers promotions based on live sales performance. When the day is tracking below your target, a pre-approved promotion posts automatically. When sales are strong, nothing happens. It is fully data-driven and hands-free.
