I’ve been in the trenches, watching what actually works for online business owners and what’s just noise. And as we roll into 2026, it’s clear: If you want to grow your list and actually make sales, you need to shift gears—fast.
Here’s what’s changing (and how to get ahead):
- Automation is the new normal. If you’re still sending every email manually, you’re falling
behind. Smart marketers are using tools and AI to set up sequences that nurture, sell, and follow up—without lifting a finger.
- Value trumps volume. Forget blasting your list every day. The winners in 2025 are building trust by sending fewer, better emails—packed with actionable tips, personal stories, and real solutions.
- Segmentation is your secret weapon. Treating your whole list the same is a recipe for unsubscribes. The best are segmenting
based on interests, behavior, and engagement—so every subscriber feels like you’re talking directly to them.
If you’re tired of spinning your wheels, it’s time to put these into action.
And if you want to shortcut the whole process, check out the Online Coaching System—it’s built to help you plug into proven
strategies and start seeing results without the overwhelm.
