And one of the best ways to stay connected with your audience is email. Before you roll your eyes at me, or say "but Liisa, Skool lets us email our members!"... 😬 Here's something to think about: I opened up a Skool community for NON-Skoolers. It replaced a previous set of traditional course platforms (Teachable, Membervault, etc.). And a huge part of the challenge was getting people used to coming here. Skool's email feature couldn't handle that task. All the emails that come from Skool are Skool-branded. You cannot customize the subject lines, you cannot track clicks and opens. You can't segment your list. And you're limited to one email every 72 hours. That sucks if you're doing a launch, need to send event reminders (e.g. for a multi-session summit) etc. But with your own email list, you keep control. You can segment by interest, by problem, by awareness, by purchase, etc. And when something new like Growth Boost comes along and potentially effs up your reach for a bit... you STILL have an audience to reach out to. My best results (especially in my free, public community) have come from sending very targeted, customized emails. Sales I would never have gotten. Email is far from dead. In fact, it's one of the biggest-growing sales engines you can have. And today inside Funnel Forensics I'm answering all questions email. How to set up automations. How to write a compelling subject line. How to segment. Whatever your email question is, you've got my full attention from 1-2pm Eastern. This isn't a presentation. It's a live implementation session. Real problems solved in 60 minutes. Walk in with a question, walk out with an answer. So you can send that friggin' email.
