Your biggest business growth secret? It may not be sales tactics—it's storytelling.

This case study is how my work as a copywriter helped 5x email revenue for a physical product brand…and even though that is so far from my niche of working with online service providers and coaches, many of the same principles apply. The big thing is that our values aligned, and that is what has made us a great team.
We first started working together in August 2023 and have seen incredible results, including:
In the first 4 months of working together we made more money through email marketing than the previous two years combined trying to do it on her own. On average, she made about 5x more per email once we started working together.This year’s email revenue 2024 has already surpassed last year’s, even though we still have all of Q4 remaining at the time of recording. (And we haven’t even gotten to Black Friday yet, which is statistically the highest revenue month).And this all happened in less than 1 hour per month of her time. Let’s dive into how we did it.

Michelle empowers women to support their families and believes every woman should have the ability to attract clients whenever they desire, even while raising children.

If the word "sales" makes you feel uneasy - filling your stomach with butterflies instead of excitement, you’re not alone. Many entrepreneurs struggle with the idea of selling, often associating it with pushy tactics or feeling "salesy." But what if I told you that the key to transforming your sales isn’t about learning a new technique but instead embracing a mindset shift for sales?
This shift is all about reimagining what sales can look like when it’s aligned with your values and personality. Instead of feeling like a chore or something to be avoided, selling can become a fun, enjoyable, and authentic part of your business. In this episode, Renee and I talk through five essential mindset shifts that have not only transformed my approach to sales but have also helped countless others turn their sales process into a natural, fulfilling experience. By the end of this, you’ll see that sales isn’t just about transactions—it’s about building relationships, having fun, and staying true to yourself.

Is the urgency and scarcity hype just manipulative marketing? We are diving into this debate with perspectives on both sides, specific examples, as well as bringing in the psychology and the hard data on when and whether it works. We are exploring if and how we can use urgency and scarcity without compromising integrity.
First, let me emphasize for clarity that this conversation is about honest urgency and scarcity. Obviously, if it’s false urgency or fake scarcity—that’s NOT okay. Ever. This is something that should go without saying, but I do want to acknowledge these tactics that we have all seen or experienced if you have been in the internet marketing space for any length of time.
This episode discusses the psychology and the data behind these tactics. We'll also explore whether and how they can be used with integrity. My goal is to provide you with the data, and both sides of the story, so that you can make an informed decision that feels good to YOU.00:04:00 Acknowledge the widespread use of unethical tactics and explore ethical ways to use urgency and scarcity.

Clients not putting in the work to get results? You've got a bigger problem.
Vix Meldrew shared her State of Group Offers Survey, which revealed that a common reason for group programs not yielding results is that clients often don't put in the necessary work. They may struggle with accountability, lose motivation, get distracted, or face other priorities and circumstances....However, that is only part of the picture!Through her experience and the survey data, Vix identified that the other major factor is the design and facilitation of the group programs themselves. This is the "results gap" — the disparity between the number of people enrolled in a program and those who actually do the work and achieve results.
So how can you design your program for maximum client results and satisfaction (turning them into raving fans)?
Tune in to hear the 5 must-have elements of a successful group program.
00:02:46 The need for updated, specific data in the industry—and how this survey achieves that
00:05:06 Why group programs often fail to get results.
00:08:01 Strategies for creating group programs that actually get results.
00:13:37 The gap between being an expert and knowing how to teach effectively. The need for instructional design and learning psychology in creating successful group programs.
00:15:47 Framework for sustainable and successful group programs
00:18:47 Current market trends with more discerning and savvy buyers.

How do top brands create copy that captures attention and drives success? Traditional copywriting strategies are failing—and I interviewed 11 brand strategists about what you should be doing to create effective brand copywriting instead.
Consider this: you can’t attract $10,000 clients with $100 messaging. Changing your messaging signifies a step into a higher level of engagement and effectiveness. It’s about more than just capturing attention; it’s about changing old beliefs and prompting those “aha” moments that stick with your audience. Authenticity plays a pivotal role here. Genuine content, where your true self shines through, creates a connection that keeps people coming back—even if you’re not the funniest or most entertaining personality (you don’t have to be!).
I’ve got 8 effective brand copywriting examples to share with you today. We’ll analyze what makes these examples work and how to apply these strategies to your own copy.

Copywriting becomes so much easier once you have done this one thing…
And that is foundational brand strategy and brand identity work to confidently know who you are, what you stand for, and what you are here to do.
Understanding the importance of brand strategy is a natural prerequisite to copywriting. That’s why I interviewed 11 different brand strategists for this 3-part series to gather a well-rounded perspective on how to amplify your brand message. Each of these strategists approaches their work from unique angles, making for a rich conversation that is synthesized here.
This episode uncovers how you can show up online authentically and the strategy behind it all. We’re getting brand strategists’ takes on how they integrate this and help their clients show up true to themselves.
I wanted to have this conversation because positioning and messaging are where brand strategists and copywriters converge. That’s where we overlap. Today, we’ll explore how to refine and master your authentic brand message—and the top 10 mistakes to avoid!
0:01:30 - Brand strategy as a prerequisite to effective copywriting
0:03:00 - Brand authenticity—and how it evolves as the business grows
0:05:00 - The "cold leads first" approach to testing brand effectiveness
0:09:58 - The ROI principle for effective brand messaging: relevance, originality, and impact
0:12:00 - Aligning brand messaging with the target audience's preferences and values
