2025-09-0216:04

The holidays are comin’ in hot... and if you’re not planning your content to cut through the noise, you’re gonna get drowned out by every other biz on the block (including Aunt Sally’s soap shop).

341. 4 Easy Ways to Get More Subscribers from the Customers You Already Have

2025-08-1211:16

How to Get Past Customers on Your Email List Ever looked at your customer list and thought, “Wait… half these people never even subscribed to my emails”? Yeah, that’s a goldmine you’re sitting on, my friend—and we’re not about to let it collect dust. This week’s episode was inspired by a student inside my Email Badassery program who had exactly that problem. She’s got happy customers, but they never opted in for marketing emails. Now that she’s building a killer set of automated flows, it’s time to get those buyers officially on the list. And here’s the thing—this isn’t about begging or being salesy. These people already like you (they gave you money, remember?). You just need to make it ridiculously easy and tempting for them to say “yes” to your emails. In this episode, I’m breaking down four smart, strategic ways to get it done, plus some behind-the-scenes tips on popups, targeting, and even good old snail mail that’ll make your competition wonder why they didn’t think of it first. What You’ll Learn: How to tweak your welcome popup targeting so non-subscribers actually see it The order confirmation email trick that gets more sign-ups without being spammy Why snail mail + a QR code is still a total list-building win How to run targeted Meta ads to your past buyers (and when it’s not worth it) The easiest first step to get going without overwhelming yourself _______ Links Mentioned Full Show Notes https://ecommercebadassery.com/341 _______ Learn With Me Work with Me 1:1 https://ecommercebadassery.com/ecommerce-help/ https://ecommercebadassery.com/email-marketing/ Courses & Membership https://ecommercebadassery.com/membership https://ecommercebadassery.com/programs _______ Let's Connect Website: http://ecommercebadassery.com Instagram: http://instagram.com/ecommercebadassery Membership: http://ecommercebadassery.com/membership _______ Rate, Review, & Subscribe Like what you heard?

340. Speed Up the Sale: Smart Ways to Covert Your eCommerce Customer Faster

2025-08-0517:14

If you’ve ever felt like your product should be flying off the shelves, but instead you're getting crickets... it might be because your audience just doesn’t get it yet. Not because they’re dumb. Not because your product sucks. But because you're not articulating the outcome in a way that resonates with them. In this episode, we’re digging into why it’s not enough to just talk about what your product is or even what it does. You’ve gotta get to the core of what your customer really wants, and communicate that in a way that matches how they think, not how you think. We’ll talk about what that looks like in practice and how to adjust your messaging to connect faster, deeper, and better... because let’s face it, you don’t have forever to make the sale. Here’s what we’ll cover in this episode: The real reason your customers don’t convert right away (and how long you really have to make the sale) How to dig into the outcome your customer actually wants The power of “so that” and the secret of asking “why” five times Why your content needs to say the same thing, just in different ways How to ramp up your touch points using omni-channel marketing When your customer is most engaged and why you need to go hard right then _______ Links Mentioned Full Show Notes https://ecommercebadassery.com/340 _______ Learn With Me Work with Me 1:1 https://ecommercebadassery.com/ecommerce-help/ https://ecommercebadassery.com/email-marketing/ Courses & Membership https://ecommercebadassery.com/membership https://ecommercebadassery.com/programs _______ Let's Connect Website: http://ecommercebadassery.com Instagram: http://instagram.com/ecommercebadassery Membership: http://ecommercebadassery.com/membership _______ Rate, Review, & Subscribe Like what you heard?

2025-07-2217:42

Debt can feel like a dirty word in the world of entrepreneurship. But the truth is, a lot of eCommerce business owners are carrying it, managing it, or ignoring it altogether… and it’s quietly sabotaging their profitability.

2025-05-2022:04
