Easy Email Marketing with Yael Keon

Sales is the whole reason you're doing email marketing. But if you've been quietly helping, hinting, and hoping your subscribers will magically buy without you ever actually asking... this episode is for you. This is the fourth and final episode in The Engagement Fix series, and we're wrapping up with the one everyone really wants to know about: how to increase sales conversions from your emails. You'll learn: Why not asking for the sale is actually doing your subscribers a disservice How to use design and content strategy to create a constant sales runway (without every email feeling promotional) Why automated emails convert 2,361% better than campaigns, and how to use that to your advantage How segmentation removes the fear of annoying people who aren't interested Email marketing has the highest conversion rate of any online channel because you're marketing to a warm audience who already said yes to hearing from you. But conversion doesn't happen in isolation. It's the result of deliverability doing its job, subscribers opening and clicking, content building trust over time, and automations that catch people at exactly the right moment. The sandwich sales strategy, behaviour-triggered automations, and smart segmentation aren't just tactics. They're how you make selling feel like a natural extension of serving, not a reluctant PS at the bottom of an email. By the end of this episode, you'll have a clear picture of how the full engagement system works together, and why fixing each layer compounds into real, consistent sales from your list.

Your subscribers are opening your emails. But they're not clicking. Sound familiar? If your open rates look fine but your click rates are flat, you're not alone. And you're probably missing some of the easiest opportunities hiding right inside your emails. This is part three of The Engagement Fix series, and today we're diving into what makes people click (and reply), why it matters more than you think for your inbox placement, and the biggest mistake most business owners make with their calls to action. You'll learn: Why low-commitment click opportunities are the secret weapon most business owners ignore (and how they boost your sales clicks too) The underutilised email real estate that 79 to 90% of readers scan but most senders leave empty How email automations achieve 332% higher click rates and what that means for your strategy One filter to take away from this episode: before you hit send on any email, ask yourself, "What do I want my subscriber to do as a result of this?"

Your open rate isn't just a subject line problem. And in this episode, I'm going to show you exactly what else is going on. This is part two of The Engagement Fix series, and today I'm diving into opens: what's actually driving them (and what's quietly killing them) beyond deliverability and copy. You'll learn: The six factors that impact your open rates that most people never think about Why sending more frequently can actually improve your overall engagement numbers How automations outperform broadcast emails on opens by around 52%, and how to use that to your advantage Open rates aren't a perfect metric anymore, but they still matter. And there's a lot more you can do to move them than tweaking your subject line. Want to see more of what I get up to when I’m not podcasting?

You spend an hour writing the perfect email, hit send, your software confirms it's delivered and then nothing. No opens, no clicks, no replies. Sound familiar? Before you rewrite your subject line or blame your copy, there's something more fundamental worth checking: are your emails actually being seen? This is episode one of a four-part series on fixing your email engagement, and we're starting at the foundation. Because there's no point optimising your open rates if your emails are landing in spam. You'll learn: The four engagement steps every subscriber moves through (and why most people are skipping the first one) Why deliverability is a quiet problem and the tools you can use to check yours right now How your email design, send frequency, automations, and segmentation all impact whether your emails reach the inbox Copy is only 20% of what makes email marketing work. The other 80% is everything happening beneath the surface: your design, deliverability, content strategy, automations, and segmentation. It's why the swipe file didn't work. It's why the email you asked ChatGPT to write got crickets. The words weren't the problem. Deliverability issues are fixable and most of them are simpler than you think. A lot of it is a one-time setup job and then good habits from there. Want to see more of what I get up to when I’m not podcasting?

You've heard all about what AI can do for your marketing. But what does it look like in practice, day to day, inside a real business? This is the final episode in the AI series, and it's the one where theory meets reality. I'm pulling back the curtain on five specific ways I've been using Claude AI in my business over the past few weeks, from organising a decade of scattered content to streamlining client projects and slashing hours off my reporting process. You'll learn: How to organise and catalog years of content into one searchable system (and my suggested system for managing this) A practical content production workflow that saves one to two hours per podcast episode How AI can fill the gaps in client projects without blowing out the scope of work The biggest shift hasn't been about creating content from scratch. It's been about connecting what already exists. Getting 10 years of blog posts, podcast transcripts, and course lessons into one place where Claude can reference them has changed how quickly I can produce content, build sales messaging, and deliver richer work for clients. And this isn't a "set it and forget it" situation. Every single output still goes through human eyes. Every skill gets test-run first. Every client deliverable gets reviewed. The AI handles the heavy lifting so I can focus on the strategic thinking, the problem solving, and the parts of the work that need me. Whether you're ready to build your first skill or you want to streamline one small process, start with the foundations. Get your content in one place. Build one bite-sized piece at a time. And ask Claude for help when you get stuck. Want to see more of what I get up to when I’m not podcasting?
