Email marketing.
Just hearing those words can make some business owners want to run the other direction.
In this episode, Melissa and Sunny explore the fears, beliefs, and misconceptions many practitioners have around email marketing and why an email list may be one of the most valuable assets you can build.
They discuss permission-based marketing, lead magnets, welcome sequences, nurture emails, unsubscribes, and the difference between visibility and genuine connection. The conversation also explores how email can help practitioners create deeper relationships, reach more people, and build businesses that don't rely entirely on one-on-one client work.
If you've ever worried about being too salesy, annoying your audience, or wondering whether anyone actually wants your emails, this episode is for you.
