Zac was once in your shoes, mentally exhausted and cobbling together solutions. But at his breaking point, he asked himself, "What do I have to lose?" and decided to implement EOS.

No, but they happened much faster than if Zac had continued to guess his way through business challenges. EOS isn't magic, and many of its principles won't be entirely new to you. The magic lies in how it's delivered as a comprehensive step-by-step system, equipped with practical tools to streamline your business operations.

Welcome to Better Business Better Life, the podcast where Debra Chantry-Taylor dives deep into the world of business and entrepreneurship. In this episode, she sits down with Scott Bywater, a renowned copywriter who has mastered the art of email marketing. Scott's journey into copywriting started in 2003 when he hit rock bottom and took a leap of faith by placing a small classified ad in the Sydney Morning Herald. Little did he know that this would be the catalyst for his incredible career. Since then, Scott has become the unseen wordsmith behind numerous widely published and highly profitable email marketing campaigns. With his expertise, Scott has achieved remarkable results, including a jaw-dropping $470,000.00 in revenue within just 7 days from an email product launch. He has also crafted over 9,127 email subject lines, analyzing the split-test results for one of the most influential health influencers worldwide. Moreover, his strategic copy has generated over 3,000 attendees and a staggering $5 million in sales for an event. These accomplishments are just the tip of the iceberg, as Scott has executed dozens of five and six figure campaigns throughout his 17-year career. Scott has worked with some of the biggest names in the industry, including renowned gurus like Kerwin Ray, Scott Hallman, and Jay Conrad Levinson, the mastermind behind 'Guerilla Marketing.' He has also collaborated with giants in direct marketing such as Bodytrim and The Learning Annex, as well as leading Aussie franchises like ChemDry and Jim's Mowing. In the digital marketing space, Scott has partnered with industry leaders like Jon Giaan, Knowledge Source, Mark Rolton, and Dymphna Boholt. As the founder of the esteemed "Elite Marketers" private marketing group in Australia, Scott has established himself as an authority in the field. He is a sought-after corporate speaker, sharing his wisdom and insights at high-profile events like James Schramko's Superfast Business Event, Dale Beaumont's masterminds, and Ben Simkin's conferences. Through his experiences, Scott discovered that many business owners underestimate the power of their email lists and doubt the effectiveness of email marketing in their industries. To address this need, he is on the verge of launching The Simple Email ROI System, a comprehensive training program designed to help business owners leverage their most undervalued asset—their email lists. In this podcast episode, Scott and Debra discuss practical strategies for entrepreneurs to unleash the full potential of their email lists. Scott will show you how to generate consistent sales by using "open loops" without being pushy.
