In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a huge shift I made in my email marketing this year—one that completely transformed how I sell, connect, and engage with my audience. The truth is, traditional promo blasts weren’t working anymore. Open rates were dropping, clicks were slowing, and my subscribers weren’t unresponsive—they were just tuned out. So, I decided to stop shouting into the inbox and start a real conversation. What followed were four “inbox experiments” that reignited m...
