Cody Builds A Business

I did an experiment in Oct 2021 - email my list daily. Night or day, morning or evening, rain or shine... I sent an email.  And you know what? People loved it. I got more replies, more opens, and made more sales. Better yet? I started telling better stories and getting more confident. If you want to learn the complete Daily Email Strategy - check out what my friends Rob & Kennedy (the guys I learned this from) are cooking up here: https://codyburch.com/email
