Course Creation & Email Marketing

---

At one point, I realized I was wasting thousands of dollars on something I rarely took advantage of: my email list.

One of my strategies for growth was leveraging paid advertising (Facebook and Instagram ads) for lead magnets, pre-launch events, and a low-ticket funnel. While these campaigns (mostly) converted, I eventually had a huge wake-up call.

The Costly Mistake

Even though I was sending emails, I wasn’t being strategic. I had built an email list—but I was neglecting it. Here’s what went wrong:

• A Newsletter I Didn’t Love: I followed “the rules” and repurposed content, but it felt boring to me, so it fizzled out.
• One-Off Launch Emails: I only sent emails during launches, which made me feel like I was showing up just to sell.
• Crickets in Between: I wasn’t nurturing my audience or providing consistent value.

Does this sound familiar?

If you’ve invested time or money into building your email list but aren’t seeing results, you’re not alone. Many course creators fall into the same trap.

What Changed

I asked myself: What kind of emails do I actually open?

Here’s what I realized:

1. I open emails that provide real, actionable value.
2. I want emails that keep me informed about things I need to know.
3. And honestly, I open emails that make me smile.

So, I decided: if I’m going to have people on my email list, I want to love on them.

How to Use Email to Sell Your Course

If you’re a course creator, email can be one of your most powerful tools—not just to sell your course but to build relationships with your audience. Here’s how to make the most of your email list:

1. Nurture Before You Launch

Instead of only emailing when you’re selling something, use your list to build trust over time. Share tips, insights, and stories related to your course topic. When it’s time to launch, your audience will already be engaged and primed to buy.

2. Add Value Consistently

Think about what your ideal client needs and provide it in simple, actionable ways. For example:

• Quick wins or tips related to your course content
• Behind-the-scenes updates to build excitement
• Case studies or testimonials from past clients

3. Get Personal

People love authenticity. Use email to share your journey, lessons learned, and stories that make your audience feel connected to you.

4. Make Offers Feel Natural

When it’s time to sell, don’t be afraid to send offers—but make sure they feel genuine. A well-crafted email sequence can highlight the value of your course without being pushy.
