5 stages of... email?


I'm gonna let you in to a little secret about effective email sequences today.

This is the core of all of the email sequences I create, and the reason why they help people print money.

It's also one of the key elements I'll be explaining in the upcoming email marketing workshop.

This approach is at the core of the below success.

In the above, we created a simple 2-week email sequence and sent it to a list that hadn't been emailed in 2 years.

But in those 2 weeks, we reactivated the list and made almost $14k by the end of the promo.

What's the secret?

You've got to think about WHY people buy - or more accurately why they DON'T buy.

A lot of people approach email promo sequences with the thought of...

"If I just say buuy now enough times, people will do it."

It don't work that way.

You have to consider the different cohorts within your audience and the adoption lenses they view offers through.

Here's what I mean.

Picture your audience.

Do they all have the same goals, struggles, and reasons for taking action?

No.

There will be overlaps, but to think they're all the same is madness.

That difference means they'll look at your offers through different lenses.

Some people are price sensitive and want to know what they're getting and the guarantees you offer to minimise risk.

Others are very technically minded and want to understand exactly how the thing works to make a more informed decision.

Others focus on the problem, some on the solution.

Some might be motivated by the transformation.

All of these people have different questions and hesitatiosn that stop them from buying.

A good email sequence doesn't say the same thing over and over again.

It addresses different problems at different points to remove obstacles and help people feel comfortable spending money.

Some people need only one, others need 2-3 to be addressed before they buy.

There's no exact science to this, but in the upcoming email marketing workshop I'm going to share the "catch all" plan I use.

This is a sequence I've used across different industries and price points that removes the majority of obstacles and helps your ideal customer feel comfortable buying.

Which is a fancy way of saying "this helps you make more cash".

Yo! What if you’re sitting on a goldmine right now… and don’t even know it? One way to tell? You have expertise in something… …yet you don’t have a premium offer out there yet (meaning an offer priced at $1,000+)... Look, I've always said you make the real money with the high-ticket offers. A lot of folk have the reach, but they're not building towards that big ticket item and so they're leaving so much cash on the table. And it’s understandable to be in that position. Traditional marketing...

Yo! So I mentioned a while back that I want to move all my advertising to YouTube as I think it's a channel with a better future than Meta. This is kind of a good news / bad news situation. The bad news is I made exactly $0 from my YT ads. I wanted to see cashflow climb back up again so I jumped back into FB ads. The good news? I spun up a quick campaign with a small budget of £20 / day to test thw waters. After £100 in spend, I made over £300 back. Not too shabby. These ads were written by...

Yo! Have you noticed how complicated business advice has become? If you want to grow revenue, you’re told things like: "You need to post across seven accounts 4 times per day with perfectly optimised content." "Your content strategy must include blogs, podcasts, videos, and daily social posts." "You need to master SEO, email marketing, paid advertising, AND social media." With each new recommendation comes the stress and frustration of another item on your to-do list… another skill to master…...
