Hey friend 👋,

With Halloween on our doorsteps, and Cyber weekend coming up fast, the holiday sales season is almost upon us.  

But there’s one thing you can focus on now to boost sales throughout the season — growing your email list.

So try to set aside even 30 minutes this week for list growth. Here's how to get the most impact from your time:
