## Resource

You should probably be sending more emails to your members. In this episode, I break down why email is one of the most powerful tools for driving engagement, retention, and growth inside your membership. I walk through the five types of emails I recommend every community or program includes, from onboarding sequences that build habits to curated newsletters that reduce overwhelm and bring members back into the experience. I also share why email matters more than your platform when it comes to attention, and how even simple, consistent communication can dramatically improve your member experience.
