Having all the knowledge in your area is obviously key; how to build the best customer service or how to deliver the best product. That’s probably in your pocket.

You know you have the best product and a good reach to your customers or subscribers. However, sending an email on a regular basis, weekly or even monthly almost never happens and eventually you get round to sending that one off email here and there with all good intentions to have it at a regular cadence… But that never happens and you end up agreeing that your plan didn’t get done.
