you can't break a resolution you don't make


Hey Reader!

Happy 2024! There's room on my "no resolutions" party bus if you want a seat. We're playing classic rock and have lots of snacks. Can't break a resolution you don't make! 🤣

Humor aside, resolutions just don't work for me. I DID pick a word of the year (it's "harmony") and I DO hope to email you more often, but I'm not going to say that's a resolution. I don't need that kind of pressure in my life!

I hope your holiday season was as calm and joyful as mine was. I didn't leave my house much and ate a lot of great food, just how I like it.

I'm super pumped for 2024 because 2023 was Simplify, Simplify's best year ever and I'm riding that wave into the new year. We have new services, an almost-launched new website, and big plans. Our team keeps growing and we're getting more and more clients, it's truly magical over here.

TLDR: Check out some great stuff below and hope to chat with you soon.

Onward,
​

Here are some things you should do on December 31st every year:

🔹 If you use 17Hats (and if you don't, why?!), don't forget to update your Lead Capture Form with a fresh "Lead 2024" tag. More details here.
​

🔹 Update your website's footer to © 2024 YOUR BIZ NAME. This assumes you update your website every year, which you totally should.

And if you're doing THIS, stop it immediately:

🔹 Using @gmail.com/@yahoo.com/@aol.com etc as your business email address - hit reply if you need the full scoop

Client Spotlight

Looking forward to highlighting so many amazing clients in my emails this year. Let's start with Judi 411.​

Judi Harrington is an incredible copywriter who has quickly become a frient (that's friend+client). She came to us in Feb 2023 for 17Hats optimization and that turned into MANY different projects including her website, ConvertKit, social media, blogs, and so much more.

Judi and I have combined forces and will be unveiling our new collaboration called
Salty & Saucy very soon.

Do me a solid and answer this 1 question survey?
I'm considering switching to Google Meet and super curious what people think about that.

I have to apologize, truly. Amber at The Boutique Lawyer is running a Spring Contract Sale and everything in her template shop is 50% off. It closes tomorrow night (March 24). I'm an affiliate, so I get a small commission if you buy through my link, and I'm telling you about it with one day left. That's on me. But here's why it was on my mind and why you're getting an email on Monday when I (usually) send them on Wednesdays. I bought a contract template from Amber YEARS ago and while I have...

Hi, Reader!Last week I told you about the client whose email list had been quietly broken for three years. Opt-in forms pointing to the wrong list. A welcome sequence that had never triggered. Subscribers who downloaded her freebie and never heard from her again. I promised more this week. Here it is: The problem with most email marketing advice is that it assumes your system is working. It tells you how to write better subject lines, how to grow your list faster, how to improve your open...

Hi, Reader!A few years ago I had a client come to me who had been in business for three years. She had a lead magnet. She had a landing page. She even had a welcome sequence set up, or so she thought. When we got into the back end of her email platform together, we found opt-in forms pointing to the wrong list. A welcome sequence that had never actually triggered. And subscribers sitting in limbo who had never received a single email after downloading her freebie. Three years of collecting...
