What would happen to your business if Instagram disappeared tomorrow?
For travel creators, social media can feel like the entire business — the content, the audience, the brand deals, the money. But there’s one major problem: you don’t actually own your Instagram audience.
In this episode, we’re talking about why email marketing might be one of the most overlooked tools in a travel creator’s business — and why building an email list can completely change the way you grow, connect with your audience, and make money.
Because being a successful travel creator isn’t just about creating beautiful content. It’s about building a business you actually own.
In this episode, we’re diving into:
Why your Instagram followers aren’t actually your audience
The difference between rented audiences and owned audiences
Why travel content is especially well-suited for email marketing
How your audience is already using your travel content to plan trips
Why hotel recommendations, packing lists, visa tips, and destination guides can become the foundation of your newsletter
Why email can be more valuable to brands than your Instagram following
How a newsletter can support your brand deal strategy
What makes a travel newsletter actually worth opening
Why consistency matters more than sending emails every week
How to create short, conversational emails that don’t take hours to write
Why your newsletter needs a clear purpose beyond “here’s what I’ve been up to”
How to stop overthinking your emails and actually hit send
