Great breakdown! I really appreciate the honest and practical approach to building an email list. The emphasis on providing value and overcoming the fear of rejection is spot on. I've been struggling with this myself, but your post has given me a new perspective. I'm excited to start testing different strategies and see what works for my audience. Thanks for sharing your insights!
