The Email You’ve Been Putting Off Sending
You know the one.
It’s been sitting in the back of your brain for a while now. The “I should really send something to my list” thought that shows up and then gets pushed aside because the timing isn’t right, or you don’t know what to say, or it’s been so long that now it feels weird to just show up out of nowhere.
So you don’t send it. And another week goes by.
Here’s the thing about that email: your subscribers are not sitting there noticing the gap the way you are. They’re not keeping track. They didn’t mark a calendar the last time you showed up and start counting the days since.
The story about it being too late, or too awkward, or requiring some kind of explanation before you can just talk to them again — that’s entirely in your head. It feels huge to you because you’ve been thinking about it. To them it’s just an email showing up on a Tuesday.
You don’t need a re-engagement campaign. You don’t need to apologize for being gone. You don’t need a special reason to reach out.
You just need to send the thing.
Not a perfect thing. Not a long thing. Not a thing with a strategy behind it. Just something real that sounds like you, sent to people who signed up because they wanted to hear from you.
That’s the whole job.
If you’ve been sitting on a list you haven’t emailed in a while — this is your nudge. Not a guilt trip. Just a genuinely low-stakes reminder that the hardest part is always the sending, and it’s almost never as big a deal as your brain made it.
Open the tab. Write something short. Hit send before you can talk yourself out of it.
How long has it been since you emailed your list — and what’s the real reason you haven’t? Drop it below, no judgment at all. 👇
