And while social media has its place, there’s one marketing asset that often gets overlooked: your email list. It might not be flashy, but it’s powerful. Here's why your email list deserves more of your attention (and budget).
You own it. No algorithms, no surprises
Social platforms can change the rules overnight. One minute you're reaching thousands, the next you're buried under an algorithm update. Your email list is different. It’s a direct line to your customers, not rented space. No middleman, no guesswork.
