100% I feel held back because everything is not all set up... emails sequences, contracts, questionnaires, and having it all automated. It's crazy how even before having a lot of clients coming in... I'm preparing for a wave of them coming in faster than I can handle. Love the 'GOAL'' of sending out 52 broadcast emails this year... 2022!! Love your teaching style... I'm a CWC student!!
Thank you. I am very grateful to have stumbled over this video. Definitely been delaying sending out emails due to not knowing what to say. Do you have a tip as to how to decide what content to put in email and what to put into blog posts?
Absolutely, Shoshanah! Check out this post here: ashlynwrites.com/5-unexpected-ways-to-rethink-your-content-creation-process-my-template/ ! I hope this helps!
Questions?? When sending out "cold" email, how do I know if my email messages are making it to the recipients' inbox and not his/her spam when the person doesn't respond? And if the messages are going straight to "spam", how do I create a message that will go to the recipients' primary inbox? Alot of great tips here by the way. My 1 month old son just wimpered a little as I was writing this comment so I'm going to see if I can take him from his mom. :)
Vince! Congratulations on your new little one! :) There should be a report you can pull that will show if your newsletters are being reported as spam. Also, this is a really great article that breaks down 11 tips to ensure your emails aren't marked as spam: www.quicksprout.com/email-spam/ . Let me know if you have any more questions buddy! :)
YES! Hoping to send out a Hero piece a week for the next 6 (launch runway) and then pepper in some of these other beauties you suggested. Thanks, girl! PS - currently shifting over to Convertkit this week per your advice.
I hear it a lot, and I've not been immune to it either over the years-ex. that whole first year in business, when I didn't send regular rhythms of emails to my list because I didn't have automations/sequences like my clients did. MISTAKE, lesson learned. :) DO IT SCARED, Susanne (you and me both!)!
Kristen! You can see this video transcribed in last weeks blog post ... you can find that here : ashlynwrites.com/email-marketing-ideas/ . Let me know if this helps! :)
Heck yes, Chris. Anytime I let email get me nervous, I remember it's kinda like the acrylic paint of marketing ... dries quick, you can paint on top of it with a better strategy as your skills ramp up. :) Thanks for watching, btw!
I just connected with this video so strongly! I think I get lost in email marketing. I lose focus and thus effectiveness. Thank you for this nugget. I have subscribed and cannot wait to view more videos! I’m a little less lost. Take care and please keep on writing!
Ashlyn you are the best. Thank you so much! I have way more than 10 for sure! I have a "juggling" question: I struggle SO MUCH with balancing Instagram posts, blog AND the weekly email. What do you recommend? These topics are great for email but also great for Instagram and great for the blog. Would you say it's okay to cut and paste my email to my blog and then echo it in my IG posts too?
GREAT question. I always recommend focusing on ONE piece of weekly hero content- all of your other content drives to that blog post, or TH-cam video, etc. You can definitely repurpose content, that's a great idea... just make sure it's all driving towards that big piece of content you're pushing out that week. :)
GREAT question. You certainly don't have to-you know your specific audience and their set of needs best! I would just encourage you to stick to a few specific things that you do REALLY well. I always tell my students, you’ve got to be able to explain how you’re different from anyone else doing what you do and how your methods are unlike any other way other people are solving the problem. I hope this helps!
Hi friend! Thanks so much for your comment! It can certainly be overwhelming mapping out your newsletter-I totally get it! I have a post on my blog that breaks down my exact newsletter formula for you, I think this would be a great place to start! You can find the blog + a subject line freebie here: ashlynwrites.com/how-write-better-emails-my-email-newsletter-formula/ . I hope this helps!
There are a lot of good ideas in this video.
I'm so glad you found this helpful, Kris!
Really great and solid video! You have a new subscriber and I will be making a list just with content creation with your videos!
Whoop whoop! I'm so glad to have you in my little corner of the internet, Sophie! :)

@@AshlynWrites I plan to test out the advice in here along with your other email video. Will make a note to let you know how it works out.
I know this is random - but I love the paint color change on your office walls! Looks fantastic! Enjoy!

Happy to say I’m currently spending my evening binging some of your vids and taking notes ~ thank you! 😊
OMG...I love hearing this sister...thank you for your kind words! Let me know if you have any questions along the way! :)
That's me - the tech stack. behind figuring out how to create the funnels is definitely holding me back!

This video has come at the PERFECT time! I so often find myself wondering what to send to my email list 😱
BRIANNA! Music to my ears. :) Did you get maaaybee 10ish ideas at least to start with for the next quarter?
@@AshlynWrites yesss and then some! Ideas spun off into other ideas! 💡
Do you have a link we can print off these ideas?
Kristen! You can see this video transcribed in last weeks blog post ... you can find that here : ashlynwrites.com/email-marketing-ideas/ . Let me know if this helps! :)
Thanks for the inspiration. Goodbye perfection paralysis (fingers crossed emoji)..!

Hey Ashlyn & team! I clicked on the link for the 42 email headline swipe but it's not working for me 🙁
Kristen! Thanks for the heads up, sis! See if this works better for ya: ashlynwrites.net/email-subject-lines-swipe-file ! :)
@@AshlynWrites that works! Thank you.
I just connected with this video so strongly! I think I get lost in email marketing. I lose focus and thus effectiveness.

I'm so glad to hear this was helpful for you, friend!
Very solid video. Thanks for helping me get past writer's block
Is it necessary to stick to one niche
