  • E131 - Smarter Email Marketing & Inbox Overload – Let's Talk Strategy!

    In this episode, I’m sharing the behind-the-scenes updates I’ve made to my email marketing strategy to help improve engagement and clean up my list. From softening the tone in abandoned cart emails to segmenting more thoughtfully based on engagement levels, I walk through what’s working—and what’s not. I also talk about testing personalisation in subject lines and copy, trialling A/B testing on header images and CTAs, and introducing a standing offer for cold subscribers to try and win them back before regular list clean-ups every six months. Plus, we touch on the realitythat people are overwhelmed and skimming, so it’s more important than ever to show up beyond just email—on social media, in ads, and wherever your audience hangs out. If your open rates have dipped or your list feels stale, this episode will help you give your email marketing the refresh it needs.

  • E130 – Data is Grey! Approach your Marketing $$$ with a Wholistic Mindset

    In this episode, we’re talking about the sneaky side of ecommerce success—gray data. You know, the kind of sales that show up after a live or an email blast, but don’t get a high five from Shopify, GA4, or Meta Ads. I recorded this on a Tuesday, fresh off 5 Shopify sales from brand-new customers—hello, LIVE magic!

    We’ll chat about why those “non-attributed” wins matter, how I’m noticing more action on email and LIVE days, and why—if you’re not cracking $500K a year—you might want to hold off on the fancy third-party tracking tools.

  • E127 - Keep your Store Promos and Emails “Skimable” Clear Communication Shopify and Klaviyo

    Let's put our customer hat on when crafting an offer for our customers and building the emails to communicate that offer. I recently had an offer that didn't land as well as I'd hoped with my customers and it prompted me to make this list of Must-Do's for building a high converting Klaviyo email campaign - keeping the offer and the email "skimable" and your potential customers saying Yes - being reassured in their customer journey with your Shopify small business.

  • E126 - Why Cheap Meta Ads Traffic is Not Always Good Traffic: Let's Pay for Customers and Not Just Clicks!

    👉 “Are you paying for clicks… or are you paying for customers?” This episode I want to encourage you to stop looking at your Cost Per Click on Meta. Focusing on "cheap" might be holding your business back — cheap clicks look good but can be a vanity metric, like seeing your social media followers growing, it is not a reflection of the quality of the potential customers you are attracting and getting to your website. Let’s focus on paying for customers and not clicks!
