It's so important to connect, serve and sell in a way that resonates and connects with your customers. My guest today is the incredible Kate Doster, who believes that sales will follow by having fun, treating people like people, and being genuinely helpful. I'm a true fangirl of Kate! As a retail shop owner, you may find it hard to find the time or wonder what content to share - or why you should even bother? But the stats don't lie - customers are much more likely to purchase from you if they have CHOSEN to be on your email list. Even if you are on Instagram and Facebook - you NEED email.

There are no rules. We discuss strategies to grow your email list, topics to discuss besides discounts, how to batch content, and more!
