Read on my website – Read Time: 5 Minutes

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, grandpas, stepdads, and father figures out there. Whether you’re wrangling kids, livestock, or both—today’s your day. I hope you get a minute to breathe.

Now onto something I’ve been thinking about this week…

Why I Keep Showing Up in Your Inbox

Not every email you send will lead to a sale.

Heck, most won’t.

But here’s the thing: people rarely buy when you want them to. They buy when they’re ready—and if you’ve been quiet until then, they’ll buy from someone else.

That’s why I send this email every week.

It’s because I want to stay on your radar. That way, when you do need help—whether it’s a website, a new idea for your farm, or just some encouragement—Homegrown Hosting and The Part-Time Farmer are the names that come to mind.

And this applies to your farm too.

You might have someone on your email list right now who’s not ready to buy eggs, pork, or a beef share. Maybe they’re waiting for payday, or for freezer space, or for the right season.

But if you send them the occasional update—once a week, once a month, even once a quarter—they’ll remember you when they’re ready.

You’re not being annoying. You’re being present.

And if you’re not sure where to start—here’s a simple way to get going:

You can create a free account with Kit (formerly ConvertKit) or Mailchimp and start collecting emails for your farm today.

Kit even lets you build a free landing page to capture emails, so you don’t need a full website to begin growing your list. It’s simple, effective, and gives your farm a direct line to your best customers.

Of course, if you want the tech handled for you, every website we build at Homegrown Hosting includes full ConvertKit integration, a clean slide-in pop-up, and email capture built into the site.

And when you send a newsletter, it automatically posts as a blog—so you’re staying top of mind and keeping your website fresh without doing twice the work.

Whether you DIY it or we do it for you, just start. Your future customers (and future farmer self) will thank you.

with my appreciation,
