If you think email marketing is outdated, think again.
In this episode, Mike sits down with Kennedy, co-founder of Email Marketing Heroes, a former comedy mind-reader who’s helped thousands of coaches, course creators, and business owners turn brand-new subscribers into loyal customers within 30 days.
They dig into the psychology that makes people open, click, and buy, plus the simple campaign structures that make email your highest-ROI channel (without feeling spammy or salesy).
Whether you’ve got 100 subscribers or 100,000, this episode will help you write emails that connect, convert, and keep people coming back for more.
