The Psychology of Email

Fun fact:

I get more questions on email marketing than anything else.

  • How often should I send emails?
  • What should my “welcome sequence” look like?
  • How often should I run promotions?

Not only do these questions on email come think and fast…

But they’re always the same…

Like pick-up lines in a dive bar.

And that got me thinking:

“Why is email marketing so hard to understand?”

Eventually, I realised:

People don’t really understand why they’re sending emails in the first place.

Sure, you’ve got a 7-day welcome sequence…

But do you know why it’s 7 days?

Or did you just read about it in Dot Com Secrets?

The reality is that you can make millions of dollars by doing email marketing the right way.

But only if you understand the psychology of email.

So, last night, I mixed myself a negroni, turned on the camera, and recorded a mimi-workshop that lays out my entire philosophy to email marketing.

Served up on a silver platter.

Once you understand the psychology of email, your questions will answer themselves.

So here goes.

This is kinda long – but if you’ve ever wanted to do email better, I highly suggest you take the time to watch it.
