Turns out the fastest way to get over flinching at every bug at the dinner table is to suit up and stand in a cloud of fifty thousand bees, which is roughly the same energy Daniel Murray and Jay Schwedelson bring to email strategy. The real payoff here is a tactic most marketers are too nervous to run: hitting your database twice in a single day. Stick around for why the angry opt-outs are worth it, and the humbling reminder that almost nobody remembers your messaging as well as you think they do.

Best Moments:
(01:33) Jay suits up in a hazmat suit around 50,000 bees just to stop swatting at dinner

(04:15) Stacking urgency across two sends pushes conversions up more than thirty-five percent
(06:33) A book launch nobody noticed, even the friend who follows everything Jay does
(07:31) Why repeating the same message beats inventing a new one every time
