Episode Details

In this episode of the Develop Yourself Podcast, I talk with three email and growth experts about something most developers overlook: email as a serious  money maker.

I’m joined by:

• Mike, founder of Seventh Sense, an AI-powered email timing platform
• Boris, Senior Digital Marketing Manager at Educative, one of the largest developer learning platforms
• Doug, CEO of Optimize 3.0, a HubSpot Diamond Partner agency

We dig into:

• How AI is reshaping email marketing
• Why email is still the most reliable channel you can own
• The biggest email marketing mistakes that founders and developers make
• What it actually takes to build a product that sells—not just one that works
• And real advice for developers who want to turn skills into a business
