Before You Add Anything Else to Your Q4 Plan… [Ep 270]
In this episode of The Email Growth Show, I'm sharing why I think the advice to "just be consistent" is missing something REALLY important, how I'm approaching Q4 after a busy September, and the three areas I'd look at before deciding where to focus your time and energy.Because you can be incredibly consistent and still not grow your business… if you're consistently working on the wrong things.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why "just be consistent" isn't actually a business strategyHow to stop treating every new month or quarter like a fresh startWhy your business should have a memory (and what that actually means!)The three areas to assess before planning Q4: Discovery → Relationship → RevenueHow to identify the real bottleneck that's stopping your business from growingHow to focus your consistency on the activities that genuinely move your business forwardPlus, I'm sharing a little behind the scenes of my own September, including launching Black Friday Made Simple and Find CoLab, and why I'm heading into the final quarter of the year focused on making what I've already built work harder.Links Mentioned in This Episode:Black Friday Made Simple: https://bfms.kyliekelly.com→ Full show notes and takeaways: https://kyliekelly.com/q4-planning-consistency-strategy/--------------------------------------------------------Want to grow your email list with collaborations?

Your Subscribers Like Your Emails… So Why Don't They Buy? [Ep 269]
In this episode of The Email Growth Show, we're talking about the gap between having an engaged email list and having an email list that actually generates sales.Because being great at nurturing isn't automatically the same as being great at selling - and if you've spent so much time trying not to annoy your subscribers that you rarely tell them what they can actually buy from you, that might be the missing piece.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why an engaged email list doesn't automatically equal a buying email listHow we can accidentally overcorrect on nurturing and barely sell at allThe difference between mentioning an offer and actually making an offerThe simple Friday sales email rhythm I'm building into my own businessWhat to check before assuming you need a new offer, bigger list or completely different strategyA simple four-week email audit to see whether you're actually giving subscribers enough opportunities to buyBecause if your subscribers love your emails but aren't becoming customers, it doesn't necessarily mean you have the wrong audience or the wrong offer.You might simply be giving them plenty of reasons to read - and not enough reasons to buy.→ Full show notes and takeaways: https://kyliekelly.com/podcast/episodes/your-subscribers-like-your-emails-so-why-dont-they-buy/--------------------------------------------------------Want to grow your email list with collaborations?

The Black Friday That Made The Least $$ (and Grew My List the Most) [Ep 267]
This episode almost stayed tucked away inside a much smaller series. I recorded it as the opening episode of The Black Friday Case Files, a run of interviews I did with other business owners about their real Black Friday sales, wins and flops included. But listening back to it, I realised it didn't belong somewhere only a small group of people would ever hear it.So here it is on the main show.I walk through three real years of my own Black Friday, three completely different strategies, and the honest numbers behind each one, including the year I made the least money and somehow grew my email list more than any other year I've run.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Three different Black Friday approaches I've actually run, not theoryWhy the year with the worst sales numbers did the most for my listWhat I'd tell myself if I were starting this year's Black Friday from scratchLinks mentioned:Black Friday Made Simple: https://bfms.kyliekelly.com→ Full show notes and takeaways: https://kyliekelly.com/podcast/episodes/the-black-friday-that-made-the-least-and-grew-my-list-the-most/--------------------------------------------------------Want to grow your email list with collaborations?

The 3-Day Launch Strategy I'm Using to Create More Revenue [Ep 266]
In this episode of The Email Growth Show, I'm pulling back the curtain on why I'm launching more often (but for less time), how I'm using these small promotional windows to create injections of revenue, and why Black Friday might be the perfect opportunity to sell something you already have rather than rushing to create something new.What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why a launch doesn't have to mean launching something new How I'm using simple three-day launches in my own business Why your audience probably hasn't seen your offer as much as you think they have What I'd send during a simple three-day promotional window Different ways to create urgency without automatically discounting Why Black Friday is a reason to sell, not necessarily a reason to create Because before you create another course, workshop, template or offer...Maybe you just need to sell the thing you've already made.Links mentioned in this episode:🎧 Join the Black Friday Case Files: https://listen.kyliekelly.com→ Full show notes and takeaways: https://kyliekelly.com/3-day-launch-strategy/--------------------------------------------------------Want to grow your email list with collaborations?
