A little help please?

Published 12 months ago • 1 min read

How clean is your email list?

It's likely not as clean as you think, and that's gonna be costing you big.

A couple of days back I was discussing the difficulties with email marketing with my wife.

How Google in particular love sending this to junk or promo folders, meaning they never get read.

She checked her own promotions tab and found hundreds fo emails from brands she likes that she'd missed cause who checks the promo tab?

Anyway, I've noticed my email engagement dipping so started looking into why.

After an email from an email pro (Jason Resnick), I used a tool called GlockApps to check my email and, it ain't good.

Across the various email services like GMail, only half put my email in the primary inbox.

Not good at all.

So I'm looking at fixing that. A few things that would help is if you could...

  • Whitelist emails from @growthmodels.co
  • Drag this to your primary inbox (if it's not there already)
  • Hit reply and send a response with any info or content to me.

This should help improve deliverability and ensure more folk get to see this message.

Self-serving I know, but I'd really appreciate it.

I'll also be following the other recommendations I have from GlockApps.

If you want to check your deliverabilty, head to Glockapps, sign up, and follow their steps for the proxy check.

Don't worry, you can do this for free.

You'll get a cool report on how to land in the main inbox.

Anything else, let me know.

P.S. once more, if you could please...

  • Whitelist emails from @growthmodels.co
  • Drag this to your primary inbox (if it's not there already)
  • Hit reply and send any response to me.

P.S.

Want a little more direct help from me? Here's a few ways I could help out.

I’m curious... What AI are you actually using? Or are you just "collecting" subscriptions? We’ve been debating this in GM+ lately because, frankly, the shine has worn off OpenAI for me. To give you some context, I’ve been an OpenAI power user since the start. But the 5.2 release? It’s woeful. I spend more time arguing with the "Custom GPTs" than I do getting actual work done. I guess they told it to stop being so sycophantic, now it's like a petulant little kid who doesn't like when you tell...

Yo! Quick one today. Curious about the one thing you’re stuck on right now when it comes to growth? Not tactics like running an ad, but the actual problem that’s slowing things down. I’m doing a bit of free thinking this week and replying personally. If you’re clear, just reply and tell me... ... what you’re trying to scale... what’s not working... what you’ve already tried... what you want to achieve No pitch on the back end of this. This just helps me see patterns and build the right stuff....

Yo, Quick heads up before I wrap up this instance of HVO. High Value Offers closes tonight. And I want to be clear about what this decision actually is. This isn’t about buying a course. It’s about whether you keep guessing. Because if nothing changes, here’s what probably happens... ... You come up with another idea.... You talk yourself into it.... You spend weeks building.... You launch. And then you’re right back where you are now, trying to work out why it didn’t land. Not because you’re...
