Email Marketing
You know that friend who’s always “just five minutes away” but never actually shows up on time? At first, it’s no big deal. But after a while, you stop taking them seriously. That’s exactly what happens when brands overuse discount codes. At first, a sale feels exciting. A 15% off coupon gets customers to place […]
You ever had a tiny leak in your house? Maybe it’s the sink dripping just a little, or a slow, silent trickle from the bathtub faucet. At first, you barely notice it. It’s small. A little annoying, but nothing major. But then the water bill comes in higher than usual. And suddenly, that small leak? […]
Running a CPG brand isn’t for the faint of heart. One minute you’re celebrating a new retail partnership, the next you’re elbow-deep in supply chain issues. You’re juggling marketing, product development, inventory management, and customer service. Sometimes all before lunch. And then there’s email marketing. You know it’s important. You know it could help strengthen […]
Look, I’m not going to give you the whole “you need to start emailing now because at least it’s a platform you OWN and you don’t have to worry about algorithms messing up your read” spiel (because I’m SURE you’ve heard that more than once already).

One day, I followed my sister around the gym, doing each exercise she did, barely noticing my surroundings. But I couldn’t ignore the guy who kept staring. I figured he […]
That “Instant Unsubscribe” Moment You’re excited to join a brand’s email list, expecting a steady stream of emails you’ll love, exclusive offers, or maybe a helpful welcome email series. But instead, you get hit with three emails in one afternoon, or a random message that has nothing to do with why you signed up. It’s […]
You’ve signed up for an email list, expecting valuable insights or exclusive offers. Instead, you get hit with three emails in one afternoon, or maybe a random message that doesn’t even match the reason you subscribed in the first place. It’s the kind of experience that makes you instantly reconsider sticking around. For anyone who […]
The other day, I found myself breaking down something as simple as love bombing. Not just because it’s an interesting concept, but because it ties into the way we think about connection, especially in email marketing. I’m sure you know how love bombing works: someone floods you with affection, gifts, or attention, creating a bond […]
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the constant demands of social media, you’re not alone!
