696: How to Write Emails That Actually Get Opened (And Make Money) - Coaching Q&A Ep. 4


Listen Later

Are your emails getting ignored because they feel like marketing instead of a real message?

Email is one of the most underused and highest-leverage tools in a mortgage business. Social media is unpredictable. Algorithms change. Reach disappears. But email? It’s owned. It’s direct. And when done properly, it consistently creates conversations, referrals, and deals.

In this episode, I break down how to write emails that people actually open, read, and respond to without sounding corporate or spammy.

What We Cover:
  • Don’t Make It Look Like a Newsletter – Why heavy graphics and formal formatting kill engagement instantly.
  • Write One-to-One, Not One-to-Many – How writing to a single person changes tone and response rates.
  • Subject Lines That Earn the Click – Why subject lines matter more than the body and how to improve them using AI.
  • Fix the Wall-of-Text Problem – How short sentences and spacing make emails easier (and more likely) to read.
  • Format for Skimmers – Why guiding attention with clean structure keeps busy readers engaged.
  • You don’t own your social audience. You do own your email list. Build it. Use it. And write like you’re sending a message, not broadcasting a newsletter.
