Reader,

Yesterday, I told you about tiny annoyances that can ruin your day. 

Like how my damn garbage didn't fit the cabinet it was in. Dealing with that small annoyance saved me from hours of headache, frustration, and hassle.

Today, I want to share another thing that immediately added hours back to my day: Changing how I wrote and responded to emails.

I used to spend hours managing emails. I had to schedule meetings, follow up with team members, network with interesting people, and taunt the trolls who emailed me.

It got really messy, really fast. And before I knew it, my entire day was gone.

So like the weirdo I am, I tested different approaches, and eventually, developed a system. Now, I can manage thousands of emails a day in under an hour.

Here’s everything summed up for you:

If you found this useful in any way, please share it.

And if you’re interested, I have an entire set of email scripts I use. My mini-course on my best email scripts — 50 Proven Email Scripts: How to Reach the Unreachable, Get the Ungettable, and Send the Perfect Message...Every Time — is available.

These scripts will save you dozens of hours of staring at a blank screen and wondering what to write:

  • How to say “no” politely, without offending someone (page 112 of my "private vault" of scripts)
  • How to get a busy person to reply to your email (if they ignored your first one) (page 102)
  • How to memorably email someone after you meet them in person (page 92)

And I'm going to give you 47 more.

This is my “grab bag” of email techniques — 50 proven email scripts that I use again and again to reach the right people, save time on back-and-forth, and boost the results I get from sending email that incorporates powerful psychological elements.

Did you ever wonder...why do you open my emails, even though you get tons of other newsletters?

How do I write emails that penetrate even the busiest people’s inboxes? 

Emails that have produced millions of dollars and have helped me build relationships in an authentic (not slimy) way?

Imagine if you could peer inside the mind of a busy person and discover exactly what would make him or her respond to you.

You could leapfrog other people and get meetings with mentors and hiring managers.

You could connect with people and turn them from strangers or acquaintances to friends.

There’s a way to do this.

This isn’t about spell-check. I’m talking about writing emails that WORK, using time-tested psychological principles and phrases that get results.

Here’s just one page from the Table of Contents:

Each script includes the actual words, PLUS my commentary on why they work. 

Plus pages of details into understanding how to use psychological principles when writing effective emails.
