Hey! Just so you donât think Iâm trash-talking my friend Suzanne, sheâd admit this herself: Her email game used to kind ofâŚsuck. First of all, because she barely wrote any. She had a dormant list of thousands of writers, and they almost never heard from her. Ugh, I canât. Do you know how much it hurts me to see a wasted email list? Itâs like watching someone let their sundae melt. Give it to me, then! (Except you canât give someone your email list â illegal.) Suzanne had always counted on word of mouth to fill her high-ticket program, Gateless Writing Academy. She didnât bother much with emails, which meant fewer people ever learned about it. Sucks to be the ones who missed out! Yes, I nagged her. And when she did send an email, it gave âgrad school thesisâ energy â all precious and fancy-pants. Hifalutinâ, if you will. She used a âliteraryâ tone sheâd never use with a friend. She wasnât being SUZANNE. But then she tried the style I teach. While sheâs a natural storyteller, it was still a shift to write this way in her business. WellâŚgirlfriend NAILED it. And thatâs not all. Not only were subscribers telling her, âThese emails are so good, I canât stop reading themâ... But she also had â wait for it â Her BIGGEST YEAR EVER of enrollment for her program. Weâre talking 1.5x the number of spots she normally fills (from 50-ish to 77)! And 150% of the revenue, too. Oh, and thereâs more. She also told me this: âI found out quality emails bring in quality people.â That year, thanks to those emails, she had the highest-caliber professional writers ever join the Academy. âScreenwriters whoâve sold huge movies to Paramount,â she reported. âTV writers whoâve been in writersâ rooms forever.â Thatâs because her emails⌠A) Got the word out to more people, And B) CONNECTED with those people, letting them get to know Suzanne. And they loved it. You can do this too. Great things happen when people love your emails. But âI love your emails â just bought!â is so much better. If youâre a wiz at storytelling but that âjust boughtâ part remains out of reach, thatâs what I help with in Email Cash Cow.

"Yours are the only emails I actually open and read" - a regular reply in my inbox since 2009...and I'll bet in yours, too, once you subscribe and learn by pure, lazy osmosis to become the most compelling writer around. That said, no promises on improving your moral character.
Last fall, I got a subscriber email from my friend (and Shrimp Club alum) Frenchie Ferenczi. Subject line: Iâve gone woo(ish). She wrote about a spiritual teacher who was helping her connect to her intuition and let it guide her business. She had me at woo(ish). Thatâs me â or was. I even coined a term for it years ago: âWoo-Adjacent.â Wrote a manifesto and everything. In a nutshell, I think most of the spiritual industry reeks of bullshit, but I do love a good psychic or astrology reading....

A flash of paranoia: Saturday, Iâm scrolling Threads when Iâm supposed to be recording a new video for my big Inbox Hero update, and I come across a post that miiiiight be a personal attack? I can no longer find it (dammit, why didnât I screenshot) but in essence, it says: âThis woman launching her email course is sending an email every hour! Sheâs the queen of email and I know what she does works but this is too much.â Iâm like, âWait. Is it me? It canât be, because Iâm not launching my...
