Engage subscribers from day one and convert without hard-selling

Email course funnels for coaches and course creators who want to turn cold strangers and passive subs into engaged, ready-to-convert subscribers

So your email list is full of subscribers who never convert?

You’ve created the valuable freebie, captured your ideal subscribers, and sent the welcome email. And what do you have to show for it?

  • Ghosts who never open your emails

  • Sleepers who forget why they signed up

  • Unsubbers who grab your freebie and vanish

Promoting your offers feels like you're talking to yourself. You refresh your email stats every day, hoping your email subscribers will finally do what they're supposed to do.But it’s just crickets — No opens. No engagement. No sales.Yet, every email marketing “guru” keeps chanting: “Build your email list. The money is in the list. The money is in the...”Sure, it is. But why does your list feel more like a digital graveyard than an online gold mine?Well, there's a secret they don't tell you about email lists that make money.

The money isn't in the list.
The M-O-N-E-Y is in the engagement

Because the second someone grabs your freebie, their attention clock starts ticking.And if you’re not engaging them from day one, they’re already tuning out before you ever get a chance to sell.So, you can have a gazillion subscribers on your list, but if nobody is engaging, nobody is converting.People don’t throw money at strangers. They buy from the expert they engage with and trust to help solve their problems.

Turn passive subscribers into engaged, ready-to-convert subscribers with email course funnels

An email course funnel is more than just a lead gen funnel. It's a strategic engagement engine that lets you:

  • Engage subscribers immediately they join your list

  • Build trust with practical solutions and micro-wins

  • Convert them into clients without hard-selling

Unlike most funnels that start with a one-and-done freebie, collect emails, and (maybe) engage later.An email course funnel drips 5-7 actionable email lessons that keep subscribers engaged from day one.So they don't just join your list and go ghost. And your emails don’t get buried in the inbox graveyard.Instead, your emails get opened, read, and clicked. And, by the time you make your pitch, they’re already warmed, primed, and ready to say “yes” to your offers.

The EBC Framework

(How I help coaches and course creators turn strangers into ready-to-convert subscribers)

E = Engage First

If your subscribers aren't engaged, your offers don't stand a chance. So, I lead with an email course that engage subscribers from day one.The goal? Get them reading. Get them responding. Get them taking action in every email.

B = Build Trust

“Valuable info” is everywhere. But value that drives action and results? That’s what builds trust.I integrate action-driven prompts into every email to get subscribers to do something (not just learn). So, they can experience a micro-win, which builds trust.

C = Convert

When engagement and trust come first, your offer feels like the obvious next step. No hard-sell needed.Subscribers have experienced your valuable expertise. So, when they receive your sales emails, they're already primed, warmed up, and ready to say "yes" to your offers.

Melker Bengtsson
(Co-Founder, Cryptowisser)

"Our email list had been inactive for months, and jumping straight into sending newsletters wasn't ideal. Yemi proposed an email-based course (EBC) to rebuild engagement first, and it was a great solution.With a 56.4% open rate, the course re-engaged our list and set the stage for our newsletter. If you need someone who knows how to turn a cold list into engaged subscribers, Yemi is the expert you want."

Why coaches and course creators work with me

Because they don't just want subscribers.They want subscribers who engage and convert. The ones who open their emails, trust their expertise, and invest in their offersSo, I help them build an email course funnel that engages subscribers from day one, builds trust through action, and prime them to say "yes."

What you get when you work with me:

  • A Funnel Unique To You
    I won’t disappear into a Google Doc and churn out generic emails. Instead, I’ll pull your best insights, frameworks, and experience (from your brain, webinars, or ebooks) and turn them into emails that build trust and authority.

  • Emails That Drive Action
    Your subscribers won't just read your emails. They'll binge them, take action, and look forward to the next one. Because every email will make them feel seen, deliver a quick win, and guide them towards your offer.

  • An Engagement Engine
    Not just another funnel that pumps out “nice-sounding” emails no one reads. Your EBC funnel will turn subscribers into engaged prospects, so when you make an offer, they're already primed to say "yes."

"We wanted to start creating thought leadership content, but we didn't have the resource in-house. After vetting multiple candidates, I chose Yemi for her professionalism, experience, and writing style.Working with her was an absolutely amazing experience, and if I had to recommend her, I’d say: If you ever need well-written, well-researched content, she's your go-to person!"

I dedicate my entire copywriting existence to...

Helping coaches and course creators like you build email course funnels that engage subscribers and build trust.So your offer feels like the obvious next step and your subscribers convert without hard-selling.

I spend all day...

  • Digging through your content (or brain dump) to find the expert frameworks that make your message unforgettable and help your audience get results.

  • Turning your dusty PDF, 47-slide masterclass, or messy idea piles into a binge-worthy email funnel that engages and converts subscribers.

  • Writing emails your subscribers can't help but open, read, and respond to – because you're the most helpful "expert" in their inbox.

  • Crafting social media posts, opt-in pages, and CTA buttons that don't just ask for subscriptions, but have people practically begging to get in.

  • Obsessing over every word to make sure it's perfect — and testing 12 different versions of the same sentence to find the one that hits your subscribers in the gut.

Every day you wait to engage,
your list gets colder

You can keep capturing subscribers, telling yourself you'll engage them later.But the longer you wait, the more ghosts, the more sleepers, and the more unsubbers pile up on your list.An email course funnel prevents your list from becoming a digital graveyard.It engages subscribers from day one, builds trust, and turns them into ready-to-convert subscribers — so when you make an offer, they're ready to say "yes."So, you've got two choices:

  • Keep collecting subscribers that never open, never engage, and never convert

  • Build a funnel that engages, builds trust, and converts without hard-selling
