🎤 The SWIPES Email (Friday, March 7th, 2025)

Friday, March 7th, 2025
An educational (and fun) email by Copywriting Course. Enjoy!
Swipe:
I'm a biigggg fan of "Show Don't Tell" and this YouTube email NAILS it!
This great email from YouTube doesn't need a lot of copy because it simply show gif's of the features in action.
An overall great email notifying people of cool upgrades!

See how each feature is just literally demonstrated in the gif??
Wisdom:
I was doing a talk with my buddy Sam Parr and a random formula he had was finding your value an influencer in a specific field it was:
It basically takes 3 things:
- Influence over your audience
- Their buying power
- Size of audience
...and multiplies them together to get a rough estimate if you're valuable as an influencer.
For example if you have a big audience of people, but they have low purchasing power...that's not as good as having a smaller audience but with HUGE purchasing power.
Here's a pic from stage:

Also at that Newsletter Marketing Summit I took a bunch of notes.

Essay:
One thing I think many people have missed about CopywritingCourse is that we're actually mostly a SERVICE not a course!
It works like this:
![]() |
Basically we take your first draft of a piece of marketing, then multiple people review/re-write, and it ends up being much stronger:

I actually think a "service" component is almost a must-have for anyone selling a course now, as free information is better than ever.
We've also long been fans of weekly Office Hours where people collaborate live and update pieces of their marketing:

Splurge:
I am running an experiment starting next week on a signup form on SwipeFile.com. It's a form we have underneath all the swipes, it looks like this:
![]() |
The conversion rate on average is 0.76%, peaking at 2.98%.
For an average week it's roughly 1.79%. See the stats:
![]() |
However, I wanna get this to a consistent 5% conversion rate or more!
Here's a super crappy mockup of how it'll look shortly:
![]() |
It will offer the reader FOUR different cool downloads if they signup, plus our weekly newsletter (which you're reading right now).
I will report back with the findings of this A/B test in 2 weeks.
What do YOU think?? Will this:
A.) Increase signups
B.) Decrease signups
C.) Do nothing
Reply back to this email and lemme know!!
Sincerely,
Neville Medhora
