Part 6: Daily Email is a Confidence-Boosting Launchpad
In my days as a beginning copywriter I got so discouraged when I saw all the good things that were going on for the marketing gurus I followed.
Sure, I knew they were 20 or more years ahead in the game.
But I just couldn’t see how on earth I could progress to the point I’d have anything remotely like the kind of business they had.
My confidence took to having big sulks in the corner.
Now, I know it’s all about taking baby steps. A one-day-at-a-time kind of thing.
But there was this chasm between where I hoped to be… just someone with a solid business… and where I was.
I just couldn’t see beyond it.
But taking the leap into daily email solved this for me.
And my confidence grew in leaps and bounds.
The first thing was that I became faster at writing. So the time saved could go into growing other parts of my business.
Plus, focusing on my email list meant I…
… gained subscribers.
… began coaching other freelancers.
… and even sold my first products!
Along the way I’ve been doing plenty of self-doubt stomping!
Because to make this daily email thing happen, it forced me into taking action every single day.
Which meant I was ACTUALLY moving forwards… not just dreaming about it.
And those far-off dreams were starting to appear a little more possible.
Now daily email has become a habit. And it even hurts when I think about NOT doing it.
The next 12 months are likely to be more of the same as I continue to grow my list, the relationships with my subscribers and customers (I love you guys!), and my product catalog.
Daily email really has been the biggest confidence-builder for me over these past 12 months!
