New feature launching at Bonjoro next week called Fallback Videos!
Here's my draft email launch plan.
Big advocate of different comms to match the users status/industry etc. Also to clarify the goal of each email, ie. reactivations vs. upselling.
What's your approach? What would you add to this?

Here’s what we did:
- Took an underused Bonjoro feature (Rollups)
- Used Plandalf to quickly launch a new upgrade experience
- Used Canva’s high-converting modal design (included in Plandalf)
- Made it so customers could make payment in modal vs new page
Conversion went from 4% to 25%!! 🤯

Simple video hook any SaaS marketer can use:
👉 The challenge
“Can I do X with Y?”
Opening shot MUST explain the whole challenge, minus the answer
Example:
“Can [X] solve [problem your customer has]?”
Opening shot shows X + states problem. But withholds answer.
Then show journey -> solution

That I don't fall into the trap of seeing it as a marketing channel
I REALLY want it to be a place of expression, learning, and human connection

"Mass X-odus", says the Financial Times. Creatives and freelancers miss opportunity and inspiration after decline of X.
Which is true. A good chunk of the indie community on X saw their engagement plummet in recent months and were looking for an alternative. Not sure it was all related to politics

Me and my Skywatcher 150p 🥰
Can highly recommend as a first scope!
Super quick to set up.
Super easy to use.
And super robust.
Can easily take into the garden / pop it in the car with no worries.
+ I have 2 young kids and it’s the sort of scope they can use too without me fretting!

The greatest problem in computer science is estimating software installation time. I just watched my new MacBook Pro go from 3 hours, to 2 hours and 45 minutes, to 2 hours and 43 minutes, to 56 minutes, to “about a minute” in the course of an hour. And that’s where I've been for several minutes.
