Trying to remember statistics, facts, and the whole body of content is not only difficult, but at the end of the day, remembering those things won’t open big doors for your business.

Remembering all those factoids will only make you feel better because you learned something new and can sound smart when you talk to others. Unfortunately, feeling better and acting smart won’t make money for you. That’s why I recommend you avoid this strategy.

The biggest mistake I see people make when they write to their newsletter subscribers is that they write like they’re writing to 50,000 people on a huge list.

If you don’t mind making each person on your list feel like a nobody, keep on doing what you’re doing. And as long as you’re cool with watching your newsletter subscriber value drop like a rock–until it’s eventually nothing—I recommend you keep going in the same direction you’ve been going.
