20% Increase! 'Inner Dialogue' marketing!🍏 I go to a Green Market! 🧼 Ask Us ANYTHING ❓❓ | Ep. 368

When Jenny from Lockhart, Texas asked whether email and social tips really apply to nonprofits, Jay Schwedelson gave a hard yes—and then proved it. This episode is all about how to rewire your calls to action with “inner dialogue” buttons that speak directly to what your audience is thinking. Whether you’re in nonprofit, B2B, DTC, or SaaS, these simple tweaks can boost your click rates way more than you'd expect. Also: Jay’s love-hate relationship with green markets, lavender dog biscuits, and mildly gross soap people.
