Subject: The secret to getting better at guitar 🤫
Hi [Name],
I've been loving hearing about your guitar goals the past couple days! It's awesome to see how motivated you are to learn.
I wanted to let you in on the real "secret" to getting better at guitar...
Consistent practice! 🏆
I know that sounds simple, but it's true. Committing to practicing a little bit every day is the fastest way to build your skills and start sounding great.
That's why I designed this course in short, digestible lessons. Even if you only have 10-15 minutes a day, you can make serious progress by staying consistent.
Here are my top practice tips:
I know it can feel hard to stay motivated sometimes, especially in the beginning. But I promise it gets easier the more you practice. Those clumsy chords will start to feel natural before you know it!
I'm excited to keep sharing tips to help you build a practice habit and reach your goals faster.
But for now, I have a quick challenge for you. See if you can practice what you learned in Lesson 1 for just 5 minutes today. Set a timer and strum that chord until it starts to stick!
You've got this 👊
Until next time,
[Your Name]
P.S. Lesson 2 is waiting for you in the course! This one shows you a strumming pattern that makes your playing sound way more professional. Check it out!

Subject: How I fell in love with guitar 😍🎸
Hi [Name],
I know you're focused on your own guitar journey right now, but I wanted to take a quick detour to share my story. Because it might sound pretty familiar!
See, I first picked up a guitar when I was 13. I was obsessed with punk rock and alternative music, and dreamed of playing in a band.
But those first couple months were HARD. My fingers ached, I could barely make a clean chord, and I was convinced I'd never get better.
There were so many times I wanted to quit. But something kept me coming back to my beat-up acoustic guitar. I loved the challenge and the way playing made me feel, even if I was still a total beginner.
So I made a commitment. I started practicing a little bit every single day, even just for 10 minutes. And slowly but surely, I started to improve. Those impossible chords got easier, my strumming sounded smoother, and I could actually play recognizable songs!
Fast forward a couple decades, and guitar is still my passion. I've been lucky enough to go on tour, record albums, and play my music for people around the world. But even more than that, guitar has been my trusted companion through good times and bad. It's a way to express myself, de-stress, and feel more connected.
I share all this because I want you to know that:
So if you're feeling stuck or discouraged right now, know that I've been there. But I promise, it gets easier!
The key is to keep showing up and putting in the work, even when it feels hard. Little by little, you'll amaze yourself with how much you can learn and the joy guitar will bring to your life.
I'm so grateful to be part of your journey and I can't wait to share more of what I've learned with you!
Now, what do you say we learn another new chord?
