Hey, hey, party people! Welcome back to the Email Engagement Summit—the place where our audio is "mid," but trust me, the content absolutely smacks. In today's episode, I (your host, Liz Wilcox) got to hang out with the fabulous Ayebanoa Sapphire Benwari, aka "Dr. Sapphire" of email engagement fame. We dove deep into a super simple but hella effective email strategy: the "Little Box." Whether you love getting creative or keeping it basic, this under-five-minute hack promises to jazz up your emails, get more clicks, and help you stay in tune with your subscribers—without breaking a sweat. If you want practical takeaways, actual click stats, and some indie business owner energy: you're in the right place.

Episode Highlights

The "Little Box" Strategy for Sky-High Engagement Ayebanoa spilled all about a colorful, can't-miss box you can drop anywhere in your email. Use it to spotlight multiple offers, events, or links—and watch your click rates soar. Pro tip: make that box POP by using a different background color.
Real Results & Fun Experiments Ayebanoa dished out juicy stats from real campaigns, showing exactly which offers drew the most clicks and how switching up box placement (top, middle, bottom) keeps things fresh, not formulaic.
Keep It Fun & On-Brand You don't have to be a design whiz to try this, but if you want to flex your branding muscles—go for it! And remember: when you're having fun, your subscribers notice (and vibe with it).
