Cart Overflow: Where eCommerce Marketing Playbooks Are Written & Shared
In 2012, Tyler “Sully” Sullivan found himself fired from his job, with a child on the way. He had a side hustle of building golf clubs, which had some good initial feedback. A former high school golfer, Sully single-handedly build BombTech Golf into over $30 million in ecommerce sales in seven years. His strategy is counterintuitive, yet effective: a lean team with just one other employee, he deliberately takes a hands-off approach and works just a few hours a week. He's achieved the 4 hour work week. In this conversation, he shares his marketing strategy, which focuses on: Email marketing that encourages engagement and conversations, over highly designed visual emails. Putting his story, and personal brand, front and center Carefully measuring and monitoring marketing investment holistically (as opposed to based on specific channels) Sully is a great example of how a narrow focus can achieve scale, especially in a huge niche with big players, like golf equipment.

#215: Job security is a big lie. This is a harsh reality that some people realize a bit too late in life. You think you're safe because you're a great employee. Think again.

Tyler is the founder of http://www.bombtechgolf.com/ (BombTech Golf), an eCommerce store, and https://www.ecomgrowers.com/ (eCom Growers), which is a Platinum Certified Klaviyo Agency. Sully was fired from a job where he was a top performer. Bringing in 200% of the sales for this company didn't matter.

So, let's hear the rest of Sully's story in this week's episode of Wealth Without Wall Street.

As a result, he is hyper-focused on customer experience and operating a lean business that doesn't just drive revenue but drives serious profit and cash flow.

When I grew up, I fell in love again with playing golf. [4:14] They had a local club builder assembling these different drivers for me, and I ended up breaking all of them due to his inability to assemble them correctly. [4:35] I decided that I would learn how to assemble a golf club, which was not a complicated process; then, I also started making and selling to my friends, which was cool.[4:51] I was in sales for my whole life and was honestly bored at my day job because I didn't feel fulfilled. [5:15] I made a website, and it took me six months to get a sale for the driver, and then from there, I started to document my journey on Facebook. [5:30] Having conversations is a big piece of what I do, and that's sort of how I shock other companies now with my other brand. [6:22] I worked with the college with four students who are smarter than me, and we designed our product for a whole year. [6:48] As a result of those conversations I initially had on social media, when I went to launch, we ended up selling $10,000. [7:09] I was able to scale it up with Facebook ads and having conversations, and now we do over eight figures a year. [7:19] Interaction with customers is at the core of success for my companies, especially the golf brand, bomb tech. [9:24] I was having conversations, which allowed me to build an audience that cared because I cared about what they said. [9:42] So we cherish that relationship, and a big part of our strategy is in email, and it has helped to teach me that it is really about what the customers. [10:27] If I had started the company with an expectation of a certain income, I don't know if I would have that same lens because it was much harder earlier. [11:58] I didn't have a goal of starting an agency. It was just the right place, right time, and there was interest. [16:08] Commercial break. [17:20] Having that kind of empowerment to do what they feel is right at the moment makes the team enjoy what they do because they don't have to say no. [19:58] If you go into it to make money and you're not doing it for the right reason, I don't think you ever can cross that bridge. [21:23] If I started another company, it'd be a ski brand because I love to ski. [22:00] Whatever your industry, email is your biggest asset; even though some people think email is dead, it is good to try it out. [23:22] Ask real questions that you want the answer to in a plain way, and you'll be shocked with the replies. It will help you to learn and also get you in the customer's inbox. [23:36] Shift your mindset on email marketing from just spraying out messages and hoping for money to having a two-way dialogue to then earn the opportunity to sell what customers want. [25:42] The hardest part once you have some success is getting out of your way by delegating. [29:28] Have fun and do something you love. Lower your expectations and ask questions.

I'm joined by Tyler Sullivan to talk about email marketing that converts. Tyler is the founder of BombTech Golf, an eCommerce store with over $20 million sold online since 2012 and eCom Growers, a certified Klaviyo email marketing agency. He calls himself an accidental entrepreneur, as his journey with BombTech Golf started when he became frustrated with poor quality golf club assembly. Tylor decided to cash in his 401k, started making his own ones and sold them by engaging with his Facebook follower
In episode 67 of the Customers Who Click podcast, I'm joined by Tyler Sullivan to talk about email marketing that converts. The recent iOS privacy update sparked controversy amongst DTC founders and marketers since tracking open rates is almost impossible now. But, let's be honest: assessing an email's performance by the number of users who opened it just shows how many still don't understand email marketing and how it can drive revenue when used properly. Engagement is what you should be focusing on instead. The more the customer feels like you care about them, the more interactions you'll get, the more response you'll get, and the better you'll do in the long run. Email, similarly to SMS, is your chance to have those rich one-on-one conversations with your customers so don't ruin it by spamming subscribers with offers and discounts and nothing else.

Most businesses are currently constrained and are resorting to online interactions due to the pandemic. In today’s episode, James and Dean talk about how you can grow your business and have great relationships with your customers amid the crisis and challenging circumstances. Today’s guest is the founder of BombTech Golf, an e-commerce store with over $17 million sold online since 2012, Tyler “Sully” Sullivan. He believes that the best way to run a profitable e-commerce business is to have real conversations with customers and potential customers at scale. In addition to Bombtech, Sully also runs eCom Growers, which is a Gold Certified Klaviyo Agency. In this episode, they discuss how to appropriately use one’s email list to create lasting relationships with customers, drive revenue, and scale the business. They also give out tips on how you can make your email replies more natural and personal. As long as people are engaging, you are doing something right. – Tyler Sullivan Outline of This Episode - [05:35] How to engage in conversations with your customers while building your business - [08:46] Reasons why entrepreneurs have a disconnect with their consumers - [13:50] Two ways of using your email to scale your business - [25:03] The tool for managing your email replies - [34:01] Why your email list and customer list are the biggest assets you can have Two-step process for getting your clients engaged in your business When Sully was still setting his business up, he had a process for getting his clients involved in the business so that he could serve them better. His first method was to document everything he was doing. Documenting your development allows you to look back and see what you can improve on. The second step was to ask his clientele genuine questions he wanted the answers to. You can ask them what they want to see in your product or business. Why there is a disconnect between entrepreneurs and their customers There are two main reasons why entrepreneurs have a disconnect with their patrons. The first reason is that entrepreneurs do not ask genuine questions. If you are not inquiring about what they want to see from your products or business, your company will suffer. The second reason is that people tend to forget that email is a two-way means of communication. Entrepreneurs focus on using email to drive revenue alone. When you create a conversation with your customers, you make them feel that they are part of the process, creating a long-term relationship with them. The importance of nurturing your client and email lists According to Sully, any e-commerce brand’s biggest assets are their email and customer lists. When the entrepreneur doesn’t nurture those lists, and they come out with a new product, it will not convert. People won’t have the same sense of loyalty to your brand. Plus, if social media went away or if Facebook Ads became too expensive to use, you can still exist and get traffic by using your email list. Never forget that through email, you can communicate with your consumers, and at the same time, drive revenue.
