Business owners, this is the most important email you will ever send. It's not about your grand opening or your new product - it's about you. Well, more specifically, it's about your business and how to make it thrive. 

Welcome emails are used with newsletter opt-ins, lead magnets, course sign-ups, specific product purchases and in many other scenarios. They're the first step in the journey that a new subscriber or customer will have with your business.

According to research carried out by Hive, welcome emails have a 91.43% open rate. They're an email that your new subscriber is expecting in their inbox after signing up, so they'll almost always be opening it.

In this episode, I take you through why this is the most overlooked email sent, how it benefits your business and more importantly take you through the ideal email sequence for new subscribers/customers.

The Email Sequence list

• Welcome & Intro
• About you/ Your Business
• Pain Point(s)
• Case Study/Testimonials
• Hard/Soft Pitch

Did you know that when you have a website built there are in fact 3 areas of consideration when it comes to building and deployment?

The problem is too many web designers only are aware of stage 2 (the build) and leave out the more important stages of the build. This more often results in a business losing money, clients and (as often happens) fails to continue trading.

In this podcast I explain the 3 stages of a web build and WHY you should NEVER ask for a web designer on Facebook recommends.

This podcast can save you a lot of time, money and heartache!

How your website colours affect your customers

Business owners often focus on the design and layout when thinking about what colour scheme will work best for their company’s website; however, many don’t consider how this choice can affect other aspects of marketing like customer perception and conversion.

The wrong colours can actually turn potential visitors away from your business. Likewise, having the wrong colour(s) in your business attire can also swing if someone will trust you and feel you are not trustworthy.

In this podcast, I outline

• The 7 basic colours you need to focus on
• How to choose the right colour for your website/industry
• How adding elements of colour to your business attire can change a perspective and even help with your presentation skills
