I just see your video.. Thats so good. Can you give me some ideas newsletter about to install solar cell system for house and for company? Since now is still pandemic so we can't sales from door to door.. Hiks
I had no idea it was 49%. I am one of those that send out emails once in a while. I didn't want to appear to spammy to people. I think I will have to change
You're not the only one! A lot of business owners have the fear of sending out emails too often but the thing is if you're delivering VALUE it's going to work in your favour to email them more often. Plus if they're no longer interested, they'll opt out (and you won't have to pay for them anymore!!)
Woohoo! So happy you found this useful :) As a total shameless plug... I've just launched the pre-sale of my new course which is entirely focused on building your opt-in that may be PERFECT for you... details here emaillikeaboss.thinkific.com/courses/1000-subs
Hi Kate Another question: If I’m sending my first newsletter which is a thank you for their email address & a freebie - what do you suggest I use for a subject line to hold their attention other than an obvious thing like Thank You & something about a free song I’m giving them? Thanks
Would love some suggestions for a multi-disciplinary artist friend of mine who has an email newsletter. She paints (art-brut/Outsider Art style), and is a mental health and disability rights advocate. Many of her paintings relate to marginalised people or mental health. She would like to start selling her work online, and has many events including group and solo exhibitions, selling at local markets, and speaking engagements. We would like to find a better focus for the newsletter as she is losing subscribers and it seems to be a regurgitation of events coming on all the time/promoting herself.
Thanks for your Q. Think about the challenges/pains/problems their ideal client faces and create valuable content that talks to these. This content could be entertaining, educational or inspiring. Have a play and see what works!
Hi Kate Emiliey! Thanks for the great video ;) I'm an English coach and just set up my website and blog. So far I have 8 subscribers ; ) I've subscribed to your website. Totally random, but I have those earrings in red!
Hi Kate! I am a professional travel consultant that specializes in all Disney destinations along with Universal Orlando Resort. DO you have some ideas? My co-workers tend to stick to the current promotions/travel news and I hate being that sales-y and boring, lol. Thanks!
There are so many ideas!! Think about who your target market is and the types of information they'd find useful or entertaining. Tips for planning a holiday, what you should pack, facts about the resorts/characters etc
Very useful content! Do you follow blogs in your niche? Sign up to their newsletters for some inspo (but don't copy obviously!) to see what's resonating or what questions their audience asks.
Hi Kate, I’m a singer-songwriter. I have not started a newsletter yet. I plan to offer a free song in exchange for someone’s email address. How often & what should I write about to my readers besides as someone suggested writing abiout how song ideas come to me, that would be of interest/value to them. Question 2: When I offer a freebie should I also mention in the same email address thank you letter anything about music I have for sale as someone suggested for another call to action or should I wait? Thanks!
Hi Rochelle :) There are a million content ideas for newsletters! I would recommend sending one at least fortnightly. Consider who is subscribed to your list... what are they interested in hearing about? In question 2, I think you're asking about a sales funnel? This video will help ruclips.net/video/NvUlHcrHJJ8/видео.html
I'm curious, what do you consider high? So long as you're seeing more opens or at least a consistent number of opens as your list grows, you're doing well.
Easy peasy. I used to work in an architecture/building company and creating content for that industry is so fun. Trends is a great one as well as explaining specific elements or answering FAQs. You'd be surprised how much YOU know that your audience doesn't ;)
Oooo there's SO much content you could create. Think 3 value newsletters for every sale/promo/service email. You could share workout ideas, recipes or even your favourite workout gear right now! There's so much and this area is totally my jam :P
Thanks so much for this video! I am starting a fashion/ style blog and so confused as to what to include in the newsletter - any tips/ ideas. I have search and can’t find anything. Thanks again x
Hello! Thanks for your video and tip offer. Do you have any suggestions for a business in the Hemp industry? We offer a variety of products. Topical and oral. Thank you so much!
Easy peasy!! There's so much educational content you can create. 5 reasons why Hemp is better than XXX. Myths around hemp. How hemp is created. etc. If you've got a FAQ page or have been asked questions about your products, create emails around those.
Lol glad it inspired you :P Why do you think you're inconsistent? Is it because you don't know what to say or you don't really have a strategy in place? I'm curious because I want to create more content that you'll find helpful ;)
@@KateEmiley I get very in my head about not wanting to bother my list 😂I actually have 6 months of content planned but aren't following through. (The other issue is my list isn't necessarily the right market now as I'm pivoting slightly but that only accounts for a percentage of them so not a good enough excuse!)
@@KatElizabeth hmm confidence is a tricky one but something I'm keen to explore so keep an eye out because I might come up with a video just for you ;) Awesome that you have a plan though and really it doesn't matter if you need to pivot. WIll your old topic be relevant at all? If so, segment your list based on the new topic and the old topic then divide your comms accordingly.
@@KateEmiley yes there's definitely still overlap, it's more the context that will change so I think I just need to bite the bullet and switch gears knowing that some people may unsub but others might actually find more value than before!
This is a super easy one! Rather than just sending out promotions/sales, why not talk about trends you're seeing, outfits of the week (bringing together 3 or 5 items to complete a look), share how you can recreate a celebrity's look with your clothing or educate them on what makes your clothing different (are you ethical, do you use sustainable fabric, have your garments been designed in Italy etc). Think of your "value packed emails" as mini blogs so read a bunch of magazines and blogs to find a BUNCH of different content ideas. I hope that helps!
The video is very interesting as I was getting started to write newsletter for a bigger company more than myself. Quick question: How do you add your other videos (series) on the RUclips ? (It's off topic but I find it interesting)
Great video! I need ideas for my candle business how to get there attention. I’m new to this and my product is great but I need help to right the emails
Aww thanks :) To be honest, as a product based business stunning images are going to be what sells. So I'd invest in getting some fabulous product shots. If you want to delve into more long form content though there's heaps you could do... talk about your point of difference, the ingredients you use, how to style your candles, why you chose the scents (who they're for) etc
Thank you for these tips- downloaded your giveaway! I am a newbie at sending newsletters and I now have a sense of what I need to change in my next newsletter.
Woohoo! Let me know if any other questions come up for you.

Hi Kate, I build custom rustic and farmhouse furniture and would like to start reaching out to my customers with a newsletter but am having trouble figuring out what kind of content to include. Do you have any suggestions?
Ooo there’s SO many things you could do re styling and interiors. Have a look at Pinterest for similar style to yours and I’m sure you’ll find heaps of blog ideas pop up, use these as inspo for a newsletter! Other ideas are details of your process, behind the scenes of you working in your workshop, how clients can work with you (are you commissioned or retail?) What do your clients often ask? What materials do you use and why’s you choose them.
Oooo how fun! Behind the scenes are my favourite (especially cake decorating!) you could show this as a gif or images or link to a reel/video. Images are your friend so I’d recommend taking some epic photos of what you bake then sharing a little story about the product and why people should buy!
