Yesterday, 7 people unsubscribed from my list.

The day before that, it was 10.

And the day before that was 14.

This happens every single day.

Because after every email you send, somebody on your list will unsubscribe.

No matter how good your emails are.

It's just math.

Now, when I was newer to email marketing and building lists…

This used to REALLY bother me.

I'd check the unsub count after every send...

Feel a little sting each time the number ticked up...

And quietly start wondering if maybe I should pull back to once or twice a week so fewer people would leave.

Which is exactly what most coaches, consultants, and course creators do.

They wince every time someone pulls the chute…

And then let that fear dictate their email strategy…

As opposed to what actually makes money.

This is a classic case of letting the tail wag the dog.

Because the #1 most reliable way to make more money from your email list is to send more emails.

And truth is:

Unsubscribes are a fixed cost of doing business via email.

They come with the territory.

They're not (necessarily) a sign something is broken.

In fact, if you email the way I teach…

Unsubscribes can actually be a GOOD sign…

Because you should be trying to repel the bad fits as much as you try to attract the good ones.

Ultimately, the game isn’t about hanging on to as many subscribers as possible…

It’s being able to ADD more subscribers than you lose, predictably and consistently.

Scarcity vs abundance.

But sadly, most people have no system for that.

They don’t know how to engineer steady list growth.

Luckily, this is what the Email Storyselling Action Plan is built to fix.

It’s a fully customized 90-day plan built around YOUR business.
