The One Email Per Day Challenge: Build A List, Print $$, & Level Up Your Email Marketing

Write one email per day, and you’ll build an unstoppable skill set that prints money on demand.

Writing one email per day could change your business forever.

No, this isn’t some challenge to make you “hand copy” sales emails for hours…

While I laugh maniacally…

Like a weird college hazing ritual.

No, I’m here to help you write one email per day because…

It’s one of the most profitable habits you could ever build as a marketer, freelancer, or business owner.

Because email isn't just a traffic channel.

It’s a discipline…

A skill...

A sales weapon.

And email pros use it to print money on demand.

But most people never get good at email…

Simply because they don't do it enough.

That changes today.

Why A Daily Email Is Important…

Most people overthink email.

They treat every send like it's a final exam.

They obsess over perfect formatting…

Pretty design…

The “right” CTA…

Or sending at the “best time.”

So they end up sending one email a month… maybe.

A lot of businesses do 1-2 a week.

Not good.

The pros send daily…

Because email is the highest ROI marketing channel on the planet. 

But only if you actually use it.

So… why would you not use it?

Now listen up.

If you write one email per day…

Then by the end of 30 days, you’ll have:

  • A deep understanding of what your audience actually responds to…

  • Faster writing speed (no more wasting time staring at a blank screen)…

  • A system to monetize your list consistently…

  • Confidence to hit "Send" without hesitation

Because yeah, I remember my first time.

The first few times…

I was really nervous.

Sending an email to thousands of people...

I wanted them to like me.

Heck, just last year an email went out for a client that didn’t have parts of a template filled in.

It was embarrassing.

Mistakes will happen at every level, and you have to know how to deal with that too.

If that scares you and you think you might pee your pants…

Me too, friend. Me too.

You’re gonna have to press through that feeling because massive smackeroos are on the other side.

What To Write In Your Emails (Once You Read This, You’ll Have No Excuses)

“But what if I run out of ideas?”

You won’t. 

I’m about to give you a content game plan with different types of emails for you to write.

We don’t have time to get into the full masterclass here today for each type of email…

But start here with these categories.

You can Google or ChatGPT examples…

Extra credit points:

Skim through your email inbox and identify emails from each category in the wild.

You’ll start to train your eye for different styles and types of copy to inspire your own emails.

Five Types Of Emails (So You Never Run Out Of Ideas):

  1. Story Emails. Share personal or customer stories that hook readers.

  2. Educational Emails. Teach a strategy, tip, or insight that helps your audience.

  3. Offer Emails. Pitch a product or service while still giving value in your email.

  4. "Behind the Scenes" Emails. Share wins, failures, or processes you use.

  5. Case Studies & Results. Show proof that what you do actually works.

Soon, you’ll notice these in the wild on social media too.

The world is your content swiping playground!

I personally “save” and “favorite” posts on all the social media platforms…

So I can come back any time and reverse engineer them…

I might notice an element or angle I want to use in my own content later.

The more you do this, the better and faster you’ll be.

It’s like when you learn about a new car model, or pair of sneakers or clothing line…

You start to see it all the time when you go out. 

Pro Tip: Keep a running list of random ideas, lessons, and marketing takeaways.

Every day, pick one and write.

How To Make Dough With This Challenge

Now… I know you’re not a freak like me and just doing this for fun.

I admit, I also write out sales copy by hand sometimes too.

I’m a psycho.

I hope my headstone says “She was psycho like Gary Vee & David Goggins”

But this challenge is designed to help you score more dough quickly…

Because I would be a naughty marketer if I didn’t give you your deepest desires.

So here’s how we’ll put more green in your bank account with these silly little emails:

Step 1: Drop a CTA in every email.

Send them to a lead magnet, a product, coaching call, etc.

Get more offers & content set up so you always have more stuff to sell.

Step 2: Track what topics & angles drive the most responses, clicks, & sales.

Step 3: Double down on what works & tweak your messaging for bigger results.

Email isn’t just about writing.

It’s about studying what makes people buy & adjusting based on that data.

The more you test hooks, angles & offers…

The more you’ll make with email.

Every email is a test.

Test more. Send more emails.

Do You Have What It Takes?

So here’s the challenge:

Write one email per day for the next 30 days.

You can even send me a copy of your daily emails…

(yes you can put me on your list - just email me and confirm first)

I’ll send feedback as much as I can.

Hit reply to this email and say “I’m in” if you’re committed to this challenge.

And if you want proven email frameworks, swipe files, and high converting email sequences…

…to make your email marketing journey even easier…

I’m putting together a playbook right now.
