One year ago I started writing one nurture email a week, which I repurposed on 4 content platforms and 4 social media platforms (including this one). Less work, more growth, and I get better results. What a year taught me: tanyabrodycopywriter.com/repurposin…

Cold email makes my skin crawl. Those "Quick question" pitches from total strangers? Straight to junk. But here's the real problem: it barely works. Cold email converts at 0.2%. Inbound email marketing? 2 to 5%. Why that gap matters for your business: tanyabrodycopywriter.com/cold-email

"Screw fear, I do what I want." A friend wrote that this week and I give it to you as permission to write freely and as messily as you want. I call it going SPLAT on the page, and it's how I write most of my nurture emails. Try it for yourself here: tanyabrodycopywriter.com/freewriting

Hi. Fellow election worker in California. Thank you for your service. Whatever happens, we can say we did our best to make sure there was a free and fair election. Thank you especially for being a Spanish speaking poll worker. May we all have a safe election season.

$36 back for every $1 spent. That's the average ROI on email marketing (Forbes Advisor, 2026), and for some industries it climbs to $45. Still think your list is too small to bother? The numbers say otherwise: tanyabrodycopywriter.com/email-mark…

I mean... you're not wrong. Your only question is, are they "your" kind of crazy?

2 conventions over 2 weekends: 1 full of sci-fi geeks, the other swing dance nerds. Totally different events that run on exactly the same fuel. What that fuel is, how to get it, and what it means for your business. tanyabrodycopywriter.com/building-c…

What Two Conventions Taught Me About Building Community (and Growing Your Business)
The lessons I learned about building community and why it matters to your email list from two very different conventions and a couple of rubber chickens.

Ten months in, I looked hard at the numbers behind this newsletter. Some of what I do is working. Some may be about to get cut. The pattern? Being human wins every time. ✉️ Email Marketing Ecosystem newsletter: tanyabrodycopywriter.com/monthly-is…

As someone who grew up being smart and big boobed, Dolly Parton was always a hero and role model for me. The fact that I spent part of my life as a touring musician was probably also due to her influence. She was an international treasure. May her memory be a blessing for all of us.

"Is this real, or did AI write it?" We're all asking it now. The backlash is against more than the robots. It's a hunger for something real. ✉️ Email Marketing Ecosystem newsletter: tanyabrodycopywriter.com/ai-detecti…

Confession: my email list is only 533 people. In an industry obsessed with tens of thousands, that's tiny. And I would not trade it. Find out why in this issue of the Email Marketing Ecosystem newsletter: tanyabrodycopywriter.com/why-a-smal…

SO MANY! I was thrilled to see several I knew and had watched, but I felt so behind in my film watching with all of the ones I haven’t seen.

Can verify, both of these books are awesome. I read them during the first Trump administration and it was genuinely terrifying then. I suspect rereading them now will be equally terrifying and incredibly profound, as it was the first time around.

"I don't have time for email marketing." I get it. But it isn't one more hat, it can be an invisible machine that works in the background while you serve the customers in front of you. ✉️ This week's issue: tanyabrodycopywriter.com/how-to-han…

Every year I help run a science fiction convention. Looks like a giant geeky party. It's really a support system... and it reminded me that your email list is your community, giving, receiving, everyone wins: tanyabrodycopywriter.com/four-days-…

Four weeks ago I asked you for a favor. This week I have to admit the experiment failed. But the real lesson had nothing to do with the experiment. I broke my own rule: serve first, sell second. ✉️ tanyabrodycopywriter.com/what-two-c…

There's a reason your nurture emails feel so hard to write. You're treating each one like it has to be a masterpiece. It doesn't. A good nurture email is just 5 components working together. ✉️ tanyabrodycopywriter.com/how-to-wri…
