Someone asked me why I wanted to stop the old email list and start all over again fresh, with zero subscribers.
Here was my reply...
So I thought it was best to start all over again to better help those who do like my new content and not 'spam' those who rather not hear the new me.
I think it was the right decision, even though I had over 2k subscribers, I rather have fewer subscribers that like and want to hear what I have to say.
My focus is simplicity in every aspect of my life, as you know, so I've decided to use HEY World for the new newsletter as it's the simplest way to publish something and email it out.
They will be published on myHEY World profile but deleted when the following newsletter gets sent. However, they'll all be archived on my website forever.
I've never been into lead magnets, tags, segments, automation etc. or any everything that comes with modern day newsletters, as I find it very un-human. I just wanted to go back to how newsletters were in the past.
Will I lose 'sales' yeah probably.
Am I leaving money on the tables, absolutely.
But life shouldn't just about money! Yes, I need to work and make money, who doesn't!
But I'd rather just share my videos, posts, thoughts etc. and if someone needs my help they will hire me. It's simple and it's been working for me for as long as I care to remember.
Anyhoo, welcome and thanks for trusting me with your time!
