She wanted to make money..but had no time

I met a friend today for a walk.

She said:

“I still haven’t had time to set up a blog… but I really need to make extra money.”

And honestly…

That’s where most people get stuck.

Not because they don’t want it, but it feels like too much to start.

So I said something simple.

Don’t start a blog.

Write a newsletter.

You can set the blog up later.

Your newsletters can become your blog posts.

(yeah, did you know that? Please take a look at my blog; you can see all my newsletters automatically posted there. Then I can take that and share it on FB.Pinterest, wherever, and drive more traffic to it, cool, eh? )

My blog: https://outandbeyond.com/

Then she said something that a lot of people think:

“But I’m pretty average… what would I even write about?”

So I asked her:

“What do you enjoy?”

She said:

“I like running… but I’m not elite. I just like being outdoors.”

So I asked:

“What did you do this week?”

She told me she went running in the sun…to train her body to handle the heat.

And I said:

That’s your email.

I imagined I was her, and this is what I would email my subscribers:

TARGET AUDIENCE/ EMAIL SUBSCRIBERS :

  • Average women, who like running/outdoors/exercise, who aren’t elite sportswomen

I would write an email like this …..

You just need to share what you’re doing, your authentic human experience

Because someone out there is thinking:

“How do I run in the heat?”
“How do I get started?”
“How do I improve?”

You’re not writing for everyone.

You’re writing for someone just a few steps behind you.

Now you’re probably thinking…

  • How do I grow subscribers?
  • How do I make money from my newsletter?
  • What if I don’t have a product to sell? Can I still monetize my emails? YES
  • How do I get people to actually open my emails?

I’ve got you.

My training covers all of it.

And for the next few days, it’s 50% off with code:

JUSTSTART

Bonus:

If you take it, write your first email before the end of the month, and send it to me…

I’ll personally review it and give you feedback on how to monetize it and make it more engaging!

(This is something I normally charge $500 for.)

Before you go… I am really curious

What’s actually stopping you from starting your newsletter?

Just hit reply and tell me

I read every response.
