The Truth About “Burnt Out” Lists That Most Course Creators Get Wrong
Your email list feels like crickets central and you're wondering if it's time to throw in the towel? 🚀
I've been there – staring at dismal open rates after launches that felt like shouting into the void. But here's what most course creators don't realize: that “dead” list might just be cold, confused, or simply disconnected from the real you. After helping hundreds of online course creators diagnose their email marketing challenges, I've discovered there's usually a huge difference between a truly burnt-out list and one that's just waiting for the right spark.
In this episode, I'm sharing the exact diagnostic process I use to determine if your email list is actually dead or just needs some strategic CPR. You'll discover the real numbers that indicate a burnt-out list (spoiler: 40% open rates are actually fantastic), plus the step-by-step revival strategy that brought my own “dead” list back to life.
“Your list might not be dead. It's just waiting for a spark. Maybe it's gone a little quiet, cold, or simply hasn't heard from the real you in a while.” ✨
🔥 In This Episode:
- Decode the real numbers that indicate a truly burnt-out list versus industry-normal engagement
- Discover the 5 hidden reasons your engaged subscribers might be going silent
- Master the diagnostic checklist to pinpoint exactly what's killing your email engagement
- Implement the proven re-engagement strategies that revive cold lists fast
Grab your favorite coffee and join me for this eye-opening strategy session – you might discover your list isn't as dead as you thought! ☕️
