In this episode, I’m sharing why I stopped sending traditional multi-email welcome sequences altogether, and what I do instead to create connection, trust, and momentum from the very first email someone opens.

Because here’s the thing: your audience isn’t confused. They’re not unsophisticated. And they definitely know when they’ve entered a funnel.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why the delivery email is usually the most-opened email you’ll ever send
• What’s actually happening with inbox behaviour as we move into 2026
• How one “Start Here” email can replace an entire welcome sequence
• What to include in that email so it builds trust and invites action
• Why treating subscribers like adults leads to better long-term results

Resources Mentioned:
