TEA 55: How To Add 25% More Revenue With Email
Today I'll be going behind the scenes covering one of the most recent case studies my team and I personally generated for one of our email clients with a 47,000-person email list. The first time I truly realized how powerful email was, it totally changed my life and my business forever. But that was years ago though...have things changed? We've all heard the cliche "the money is in the list." Email has always been known for its ability to be high-impact / low-resource. With everything that's changed online nowadays though some people may wonder if the methods behind getting the money out of the list have changed. I've been in email marketing for a long time and I've seen a lot of changes, to say the least, but there are a few fundamentals that all successful email marketing strategies have in common. Leave a few of these out and you may never be able to experience "the money" in the list...Time stamps: 2:51 The Time We Made My Mentor 10.4X's His Regular Email Revenue 4:48 We Just Doubled An Email Client's Revenue Using This6:53 Email Is Still Relevant And Here's The Simple Reason Why 9:15 The 3 Different Types Of Email You Have To Know About10:52 If You Want To Get An Email Strategy Off The Ground, You'll Need This13:51 Do This Before You Do Anything Else15:19 This Can Make You More Money Faster Than Anything Else17:39 You Need To Be Doing This Every 4-6 Weeks21:09 But What If My Revenue Drops-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-► Visit Our Website For Training and Resources ► Leave Us An Honest Rating, Email An Image Of Your Rating To team@theecommercealley.com, We'll Send You A $10 Amazon Gift Card As An Appreciation Gift!► Learn About Our Mentorship Program For Ecom Brands Making Over $10k/month ► Checkout Our Upcoming Software, Breezeway - Never Second-Guess Your Meta Ads Again ► Follow Josh on social media: YouTube | Instagram | Facebook | TikTok |

TEA 53: 100-Day Content Challenge
In this episode, I'm laying down the gauntlet. It's time for a 100-Day content challenge. If you're looking to take things to the next level this year, joining this challenge is a MUST. Most people underestimate organic content's ability to positively impact their bottom line. I like to think of direct response marketing as a faucet that you can turn on or turn off and I like to think of branding as more of a river. You need both to succeed and there are distinct advantages to each.What's the best way to go about it though? And which platforms should you use? I cover all of that in this episode.

TEA 50: I Spent $20K On Courses & Coaching This Year & Here's What Happened
I’m a huge believer in investing in myself to acquire high-value skills. This year, I spent more than $20k on courses & coaching and next year I intend to spend more. Some of it, I look back and think “wow, why did I spent $10k on that”. And some of it changed my life & our business.Today I want to talk about 3 things regarding your personal education as an entrepreneur:1.) How you decide what to invest in.2.) What not to invest in.3.) When you should do invest in education. I used to be one of those people who set out to read an obscene amount of books per year partially just to be able to say that I did it... I did this for 7 years before realizing my educational activities and my goal might not really be lining up.The way I do things now is WAY different than it used to be and the impact I've received for changing things up has been more than worth it. The key to everything is knowing the right questions to ask yourself before pulling the trigger on investing and in today's episode, I'll be giving you my exact 3 question framework to help you make the right decision every time.► Click here to watch on YouTube► Click here follow me on Instagram @joshcoffy► Click here to follow me on TikTok @joshcoffy- Josh(The Ecommerce Alley, Founder)P.S.
