The “Do You Hate Me?” Email — The Writing Coach 44

Listen on: Apple Podcasts ↗  ·  Spotify ↗  ·  YouTube ↗  ·  RSS ↗

Welcome to The Writing Coach. On this podcast, I speak with the instructors, editors, coaches, and mentors who help writers and authors create their art, build their audience, and sell their work.

Last week I sent Ryan Levesque’s “Do You Hate Me?” email to my email list.

Boy was THAT an interesting experience!

Email marketing is one of the most powerful tools you can use to sell books and build an audience, but are the benefits of sending something like the “Do you hate me email?” really worth the drawbacks?

In episode 44 of The Writing Coach, I describe:

  • Why I sent the “Do You Hate Me?” email;
  • If the email worked like I hoped it would;
  • What the email taught me about my audience and about email marketing;
  • Whether I would send the email again;
  • And much more!
