Today we’re going to be looking at the anatomy of an email marketing funnel and why it’s one of the most powerful business assets for a solopreneur.

If you haven’t started building your email list yet, then my hope is that by the end of today’s episode you have a better understanding of how and why to do that.

I walk you step-by-step through the different stages of your customers journey, and why that matters when you're writing emails to them.

At the end, I'll give you 7 steps to get started with your messaging that will help you strategize exactly how you can connect to your future clients with one of the easiest (and least expensive) methods: email.

Having a healthy email list of people who are interested in what you do or sell can offer you so much freedom. You have the ability to take your business in any direction you want to. You can create spontaneous offers, you can work less and earn more and you can connect directly with the people you want to serve which is a huge reward.

• The 5 main stages of an Email marketing funnel or Customer Journey
• How mainstream brands craft their messages based on these stages
• 3 Examples of companies getting it right
• 7 Steps for you to strategizing your own email funnel

I encourage you to listen to this episode, get out a pen and notebook and start brainstorming how you’re going to generate a healthy email list, so your business can thrive even when life is handing you serious challenges.

Have you ever been so intensely focused on a work project or trying to meet a deadline for your business that you completely forgot to eat?

Maybe the first sign that you've been face deep in your screen for hours is a loud rumbling in your belly!

Or, remember when you were a kid and you played outside for hours and hours on end and when your mom called you in for dinner you protested? Hunger and food were the very last thing on your mind, because capture the flag wasn't gonna finish playing itself!

We go through so many processes in our lives not really thinking about food or nutrition, and then when we do eat, we often think of it within the frame of various different stories: food is entertainment, a reward, a link to a beloved family member.

Rarely do we think of food as just plain old fuel for our system and I'd bet almost nobody thinks of it as a business tool.

In holistic business, nutrition is indeed considered a business asset, just like Joy is a nutrient!

This week, I took the time to break down the difference between primary and secondary foods and how they play a role in your every day success.

In this episode, you'll learn about:

• the concept of food as fuel
• how nutrition is actually self care
• the difference between primary and secondary foods and why they matter

I also offered a classic holistic wellness exercise, The Wheel of Life exercise, that you can print out and use repeatedly to figure out which of your primary foods may need your attention at this time!

Give it a listen and make sure to grab your copy of the Wheel of Life exercise so you can bring this practice into your business tool kit.
