If you’ve ever wondered how to revive a dead email list or why people make a hard left into the airplane bathroom before takeoff, this one’s for you. Jay Schwedelson dives into his two favorite tactics to wake up unengaged subscribers before year-end—plus manages to work in an oddly passionate defense of Spirit Airlines. It’s classic Jay: part marketing brilliance, part relatable chaos.
