The email that quietly converts during slow summer months

Here’s a timely, scroll-stopping email idea your list will actually want to open this week 👇

“The Summer Self-Check Email

If you’ve got clients or a community that tends to drift during the summer months, this is your chance to reignite their focus—and reconnect it back to your offer.

The Summer Self-Check Email is a smart, value-packed reflection prompt that helps your audience to pause, evaluate where they are… and see your product, service, or coaching as the next best step—without ever feeling pushy or salesy.

💡Why send this now?

  • Early Q3 is goal reset season. Your audience is reflecting on the first half of the year—and ready to re-commit or pivot.
  • Open rates spike on personal, reflective emails. Especially when they offer real value, not just promotions.
  • Helps position you as a thought leader who cares about their long-term success—not just conversions.

🔁 This email works beautifully for coaches, consultants, course creators, wellness brands, nonprofit orgs, and any brand rooted in growth, education, or transformation.

This is just a starting point—be sure to tailor it to your brand and audience for maximum impact.
