The List to Launch Lab Information
If you don’t have a direct line to your clients & customers—you don’t have a reliable way to make sales.
The List to Launch Lab teaches my exact email system and blueprint for starting, nurturing, and monetizing your very own email list.
Designed for the dreamers, doers, and entrepreneurs who want to drive results—no matter what industry they serve or what offers they have to sell.
You can’t build a business on platforms you don’t own and can’t control —because at the end of the day, when an algorithm calls the shots, it’s not a direct line to your people.
When I started my business, I knew I could bet on myself and on my brain. And that’s why when one of my first business coaches asked, “How big is your email list?”—I froze.
Shoot. Zero. Nada. Nonexistent.
Uh … *clears throat* “Well, sir, might I direct your attention to my Instagram feed … ?”
That’s what I WANTED to say.
But I had to face the music and realize: I’d been relying on engagement, likes, and comments up to that point. Which all served a purpose, no doubt. But as business owners, we’ve gotta choose solid results over the shiny. In fact, we have an obligation to do just that.
You show up in something stylish, and chat up a few new friends (and old!) over the artfully arranged cheese plate.
But my business needed more than that.
ENTER THE EMAIL LIST
an official invitation to coffee with that new cocktail-party bestie.
It’s the place to get to know each other, talk about real things, and actually make some headway in cultivating that budding friendship.
On average, small business owners spend up to 6 hours per week on social media marketing, but only 1-3% of your audience actually sees what you post & engages with it in some way.
That’s roughly 15% of your week’s time on a 1-3% return.
The fact is, we know social media glitches happen on the reg.
(It doesn’t take a global meltdown circa 2020 to throw off your feed.)
But what if something truly crazy happened—
like your account got hacked & you lost access to all your followers?
THE TRUTH IS:
Those are very real possibilities—and the situation only gets that much worse if you don’t have anywhere else to turn.
It’s time to ensure you can connect with your people, and offer a true-to-brand experience whether they see your social media updates or not.
Plus, emails can do so much more than the average social media post, like:
- GET SPECIFIC FEEDBACK from each individual contact about what they hope to receive from you—helping you segment your list so you can serve more strategically
- WAIT PATIENTLY in your reader’s inbox for them to read, without getting punished by an algorithm that buries it never to be seen again
- ESTABLISH A CADENCE and flow of information that your audience becomes engaged in and even grateful for
You just need to find & connect with the people who are ready to:
- Happily invest in your biz as clients and customers because your words read like they were written just for them
- Eagerly await the chance to engage with your next heartfelt email
- Flip out at any announcement of a spot open to work with you
- Jump on that exclusive discount, promotion or new product because your content speaks right into their bones
- Read authentically-crafted emails FULL of life that flip the scammy salesman pitch upside down
- Cheer at the sound of your instantly recognizable voice from a mile away
