a single source, nothing corroborates it
Break the course into daily pieces with a task each
One small chunk per email that the reader can act on immediately is what keeps people finishing, and attaching an exercise or resource turns reading into practice. The gap between sends is set by the work asked for: information can arrive daily, anything requiring effort needs room to do it in.
The method
- 01
Run the email course over six or seven days on one narrow subject, so it is short enough to finish and lands in the inbox daily while it runs.
- 02
Split the material so each email carries one small chunk the reader can act on immediately.
- 03
Set the send interval by how much work the lesson asks for: pure information can arrive quickly, but anything with a task needs a gap to do it in.
- 04
Attach an exercise or a resource to each lesson so readers practise instead of only reading, which raises the number who finish.
- 05
Automate the whole sequence so the same course can run for thousands of students without any extra hours from you.
What it returned
