My brothers and sisters could tell by how many Coca Cola's my mom drank each day if she would say 'yes' to our questions. If she drank 1 coke, then she was having a great day. If she had 3+ then we would ask dad. So, when Coca Cola came out with their "Share a Coke" campaign and put people's names on the bottles, you better believe we had a fridge full of Maria's. And between you and me, this was a brilliant move on Coke's marketing team. Millions of people drink Coke, but for people like Fred, Mike, and Maria, they felt they were the only one. Which is something I forgot. So I was caught a little off-guard when this email landed in my inbox about a week ago: Serenity saying, "the time you've taken from your day to write to me..." I know she doesn't know this is an automatic email that gets sent when someone's on my welcome sequence, but I wish more people knew your readers think they are your one and only, and not one in 1,000. When you write to your list, focus on writing to 1 person. Because every person deserves to feel like they have one person who is in their back corner cheering for them. And feel like someone cares enough to check-in and see how theyβre doing. So today, I hope you email your newsletter and say, βI couldnβt get you off my mind...how are you [mentally/emotionally/spiritually/financially] doing right now?β Then see all the good that happens from this one act of kindness. Because your readers deserve to remember you care more about them than their wallets. And a simple check-in will help you win over your biggest fans. And because you pour so much into your business, family, and your readers, here's a little freebie that'll help you write your next few emails.

If you know someone who could use this freebie, will you forward this email onto them? Sometimes sending emails can be tough, and there's no reason anyone needs to do this alone. Thanks. β β β β β β β β β |
Okay, first things first, if the thought "whaaaat?" just crossed your mind with the "A-A-RON" reference, then you NEED to look up a comedy sketch called "Substitute Teacher by Key & Peele". Full transparency, there is some language in it. I served a mission for my church in Mississippi. The people have some creative names and this video pokes fun at the creative spellings and pronunciations of names. π So, the big question: how did Disney "mess up"? Well, if you think storytelling in your...
Rewind to Wednesday, 7:38PM. I thought the poor guy's hand was going to be blown off...or at least look like it went through a cheese grader. Youth night brought out the pyro-fire lovin' people in our group. And this young man was leading the way. He took a long bottle rocket, lit the fuse, and within a few seconds the thing started sparking in his hand and (thankfully) shot up and away. Between you and me, angels were watching over him. But I can't blame him for his contagious enthusiasm for...
Just so you know, Reader, my 3 year-old has the habit of sneaking into my bed at night. Usually I wake up with a chubby arm around my neck and a small puddle of drool by my cheek. Last night Flynn came to my side of the bed. (He still hasn't forgiven me for leaving him for girl's camp for a week. My momma heart breaks for him - the poor guy.) Last night he came in but with slurry words and half asleep questions. "I go with you mommy. And will you come with me?" I knew he was half asleep (I...
