Welcome back to the Sales Email Summit, fam! I'm Liz Wilcox (your email hype queen) and I'm joined by Andréa Jones, a marketing maven who’s all about keeping things simpler & smarter for busy folks like us. In this episode, Andrea spills the details on her most lucrative sales email from the past year, how a “Mama Olympics” moment sparked real results, and why imperfect action > endless tweaking. Plus, get the lowdown on a simple subject line that cracked open a ripple effect of sales and buzz. If you ever felt cringe about selling via email, this chat will have you ready to hit send (with confidence—and maybe an emoji or two). Episode Highlights The Catalyst Email: A Slice of Real Life Andrea’s winning sales email opened with a personal story about her kids and the wild ride of time flying by (cue all the millennial parent feels). She masterfully pivoted to a powerful call-to-action: stop waiting for perfect and just hit send. The Secret Sauce: “Before You Go” Strategy At the end of her emails, Andrea uses a soft-sell section that connects the story back to a solution—this time, a $9 Instagram grid strategy template for anyone tired of chasing trends. Spoiler: people loved it, bought it, and started telling other people about it. Ripple effect = activated. Stats That Matter: Real Email Metrics Andrea’s killer subject line (“A tiny voice. Okay, two reminded me of this. Today”) scored a 27.9% open rate and a 0.8% click rate with her list of 19,000 subscribers. Proof that storytelling + relatability can drive real results.
