It happens to the best of us: we have great plans and intentions for growing our businesses and we vow to email our subscribers regularly; but then life and/or business events get in the way and those awesome plans are forgotten or given a lower priority.

With the help of this planner – you will create a process for staying in touch with your email list and you’ll be excited to make offers instead of dreading what to write.

Here is What You Get with the “Subscriber Re-engagement Planner”:

The Step-by-Step Planner Covers:

  • Step 1: Renew Your Commitment to Community Building
