🤦‍♀️ Whoops! I just made the #1 no no in email marketing lol


😀 2 min Video of this email

Whoops, you guys get a front seat to the madness.

So, this week is the 2024 Becoming Boss Bundle it's live this week,

September 9 through 12th (thru this Thursday), but I may or may not have made a mistake 🤭 and somehow accidentally activated/sent out last years bundle promo sequence lol so disregard those that say 2023 lol but of course any helpful info in there is still great!

I am definitely human! 😂 There is definitely no perfection involved when it comes to me, nor anybody else I suppose.

But, you know, mistakes happen.

I will say I do love teaching the kids that mistakes are happy accidents (🤣 right Bob Ross?)

So, I'm gonna use this as a teaching moment.

Here is a rundown of the main tip tidbits in this lovely email:

  • Crap happens, don't let mistakes get you down, everyone makes them, and life is too short to be embarrassed by things everyone experiences at some point (multiple, usually lol) in their lives.
  • Make one of your personal emails a subscriber to your list, so you can quickly catch mistakes and issues early - since you can quickly review stuff that is sent out in real-time (especially since I wouldn't have caught this mishap at all unless someone reached out later, I have the automation inactive but apparently the email sequence was somehow set to live lol)
  • Use a link-cloaking thing that allows you to update a link even if it's already been published, sent and even if it's in multiple places all at once
  • When you own up to a mistake or openly address it, people often appreciate that; it helps connect you and your people, makes you more relatable and real, not just some boring bot emailing or creating content for them, but shows you're down to earth and just like them!
  • Your Authority and trust should not go down because mistakes happen.

Major Announcements I'm so excited to offer!

  • I'm working behind the scenes on a new Workcation event [in-person live coaching on an all-inclusive Disney cruise!]
  • The Creative Marketing Mastermind Membership BETA is going live in 2 weeks!

Things happen; people make mistakes, and today, I made quite a boo-boo many consider to be one of the #1. No, no's in the email marketing world, but I'm never too proud to admit when I'm wrong!

I've decided long ago that there's no point in being stressed about it.

Sh** happens.

Remember, if your audience is genuine and if you have built good trust & a good relationship with them over the time you've been talking to them, then they will understand, and you should not receive any crazy hate mail or anything if you do, then those just aren't your peeps and kick their cuckoo butts off your email list lol

Your Authority and trust should not go down because mistakes happen.

Literally, it doesn't matter how old you are; mistakes always happen.

So I may or may not have accidentally, in the craziness of this week, between all these different events, this bundle, a launch in 2 weeks coming up, and planning my end-of-year Workcation event

[it's a one-of-a-kind small group all-inclusive Disney cruise & in-person coaching package event! 3-day, 4-night event deets to come soon!] (exclusive to Creative Marketing Mastermind Members!)

Deets for this mastermind membership offer are coming soon, so get pumped if you want more hands-on coaching time with me so you can make way more progress with your content and sales quickly. If you want to become a founding member and lock in the beta price, so even as it goes up incrementally & the value increases with more content and extras added, you will always pay the same as long as you are a member!

I'm even in the process of creating a future pay increase schedule that I will post on the sales page soon, for transparency's sake, as well as the content schedule of what and when new goodies are scheduled to be dropped inside the membership portal!]

Back to my old emails whoopsie lol. I'm not really sure how it happened because I don't remember scheduling it or anything.

Tip: I have set up one of my personal emails as a subscriber, so I also get my own emails, perfect for when things like this happen, lol it makes these hiccups way easier to catch quickly.

So today, I saw the emails that came in about the bundle, and I'm like, uhh...that's from last year.

What's even worse is that it has last year's information. Whoops.

So the last few emails you've gotten that say 2023, the dates and links are not correct.


Here's
the link to this year's bundle that is indeed live this week through Thursday, lol (don't forget that when ya click this link to check it out, you get the Brand New 'Ultimate ADHD Priority Planner™️' automatically sent to you via email asap just cuz I love spoiling ya!


I had created this old sequence before I learned my lesson to use a link-cloaking thing (I use the free better links plug-in on my WordPress site), so even once I've sent out an email, I can update the link in all the emails, including the ones already sent! If you've already clicked the check out the bundle buttons in prior emails from this week you won't see the bit above that offers the 'this years link'!

Replay AMEN! If you're on the struggle bus with me 😂

Talk to ya soon,

Bianca
