Email marketing and newsletter services for Authors, Podcasters, and Thought Leaders

You've got a fantastic new book, podcast episode, or speaking engagement on the horizon that you know your beloved audience will love. 📖🎙️

How do you reach the members of your tribe who aren't living on social media or might forget to stop by your website?

And how do you reveal your latest work without sounding like you've suddenly morphed into a sales-y late-night infomercial?

There's a way to share your work without the sales-y aftertaste. 🌟

👥 Followers ≠ Dollars 💰

Sure, having a legion of followers is fabulous and all, but here's the real question - how many of them turn into paying customers? 💸

💪 72% of these book buyers are more likely to support an author that they're already subscribed to via email. Talk about the power of connection!

62% of women who receive book recommendations through email will buy at least one of the books they are recommended.  💌

Yep, you read those facts right! 💡

That's why, even in the era of likes and shares, having a website and a newsletter is still golden.

Ready for a financially fabulous writing or podcasting career?

(shhh, here’s the secret formula: 🔍🐦👥📸📰🌐➡️💻➡️📧➡️💰📚🎧)

Here's the 3-step formula that authors and podcasters like James Clear and Tim Ferris, and countless others, have used to build financially successful careers: 

  1. Drive tons of traffic to your website: Curate a captivating social media presence, land media features, or rock your SEO to drive your audience at scale to your fabulous website 💻

  2. Build your email list: Entice your audience to your newsletter 📧 

  3. Cultivate your community: Cultivate a long-term relationship with your fans through your content & newsletter to transform your fans into super fans who can't wait to buy your amazing work or services or consume your writing or podcast episodes! 💰📚🎧

Wanna swap anxiety for engagement & profit? 🙌 

→ Does your head start spinning when thinking about email platforms? Mailchimp? Mailerlite? Mail Merge? Flodesk? Convertkit? Huh? 😵‍💫



→ Worried that a megalomaniac will buy your favorite social media platform and kill the following you've painstakingly built over the years?! (#RIPTwitter) 💔

→ Does the thought of building an email list — as your publisher has been harping on and on about — make your eyes glaze over? What are you even supposed to write about?! 🤷‍♀️


→ Perhaps you're a speaker, coach, or consultant, and the chaotic world of TikTok reels and glossy filtered Instagram posts are sucking your time and zapping your joy quicker than you can say 'selfie'? 🙅‍♀️


→ Worried about arbitrary Instagram and TikTok algorithm changes or glitches? Petrified of the digital nightmare of being locked out of your social media accounts for no reason (happens ALL THE TIME, btw)? 😱


→ Concerned about reaching your audience that isn't quite into the social media hustle and isn’t frequently checking your website? Wondering how to keep these ties vibrant and humming? 💕

Here's the magic you'll unlock when you start chatting with your audience via email:

  • Talk about turning fans into fervent supporters! Moreover, email marketing proves to be a star performer when it comes to conversions - email is 3x more effective than social media in turning your engaged audience into paying customers or clients. With email, you're not just building a subscriber list, you're creating your own thriving marketplace.

  • It's time to craft your messages to resonate with this powerful audience segment. Craft compelling messages that resonate with her and watch as she joyfully clicks 'Buy Now'. That's the persuasive power of email – turn your readers into passionate book buyers!

  • Use email to savor the warmth of turning casual followers into lifetime fans eager to support your journey.

  • With email marketing, it's not just about broadcasting - it's about connecting. Instead of letting your precious content get lost in the social media shuffle, ensure it lands directly in the hands of your audience with email. With email, your voice doesn't just echo - it lands, connects, and resonates.

  • Form long-term, genuine friendships with your audience, transforming them from a customer base into a loyal tribe.

  • No one has time to read or remember every social media post everyday. Luckily, your emails aren't Cinderella, they won't vanish after 24 hours. Nope, they'll be comfortably nestled in your audience's inboxes, ready for a read when they're good and ready. Emails have a 91% open rate, 66% click-through rate, and a 33% conversion rate after 24 hours. This means that even if someone doesn't open your email right away, they're still likely to see your email later and take action. Talk about enduring convenience!

  • Sidestep the turbulence of temperamental algorithms, ephemeral social media platforms, and the panic of sudden account bans. With email you're in a reliable safe harbor - sturdy, reliable, and continually accessible to your audience. That’s why 90% of authors have reported email as a reliable tool to reach their audience, no matter what.

  • With an impressive 58% of people checking their email before doing anything else online, savour the sweet perk of having your message land right in their personal space - the first thing they see in the morning. No pesky algorithms or competing posts. How's that for VIP treatment?

  • Embrace the power of speaking directly and personally to your fans, without being subject to the whims of the tech gods.

  • Approximately 75% of podcast fans prefer to engage with their favourite shows via email updates. Keep your fans in the loop, deepen connections, and boost engagement with every email, especially with your audience members who prefer not to engage on social media.

  • Email marketing for authors sees an average of 3,800% return on investment. Visualize your business expanding with ease and confidence everytime you hit send.
