Email courses you can join
One page listing every course published here. Each card says who wrote it, how many days it runs and the subject line day one arrives with, so you can see what you are joining before you hand over an address.
A course here is five to ten emails, one a day, in the order its author wrote them. You join by giving an address on the course’s own page, you confirm by clicking a link in the one email that follows, and day one arrives the day you confirm. Nothing is sent to an address that has not confirmed, ever, on any course listed on this page.
Every email carries a one-click unsubscribe, and leaving takes effect on the spot rather than being a request somebody processes. Nothing here tracks whether you opened anything: this platform has no open tracking at all, and no setting that turns it on.
Each card below links to the course’s own page, which is where its author describes it and where the form is. Those pages are deliberately kept out of search results — a few hundred near-identical sign-up pages is not something worth putting in an index — which is why this page exists: it is the one place a published course can be found.
No courses are published here yet
This page lists published courses and there are none to list yet: nobody has published one on this platform so far. That is the state of the directory rather than a page that failed to load, and it will fill as courses are published.
If you were sent here looking for a particular course, the address its author gave you works whether or not this page lists anything. It looks like 5dayemail.com/c/their-course, and it is the page with the form on it.
If you want to write one, the waiting list at the foot of this page is the way in. It asks for an address and nothing else.
What is on this page
- A course appears here the moment its author publishes it, and leaves the moment they pause, archive or unpublish it. Nothing is listed by hand.
- A draft is never listed, and neither is a course whose author has had their sending paused. If it is on this page, its page is open and its emails are being sent.
- The order is by when each course was published, newest first. Nothing on this page is ranked, promoted, weighted or paid for, and there is no placement here to buy.
- This platform does not review, endorse or fact-check what a course teaches. What it enforces is how the emails are sent: confirmed opt-in, one-click unsubscribe, and a sender who can be identified.
Writing one of your own
Everything about writing and sending a course of this shape — how long it should be, what day one has to do, what the law requires of the footer — is written out in the guides. Three complete courses, every subject line and body included, are on the examples pages.
The reasoning is in the Guides to writing an email course, three complete courses are under Email course examples, and what this site itself does with a course once it is written is on the home page.
Thinking of writing one of these?
5dayemail hosts a five-to-ten day email course: you write it once, and everyone who joins your list gets one email a day, in order, starting from the day they confirm.
Accounts are opened a few at a time rather than by signing up. Leave your address and you will be written to when the next ones open.
One message, when there is room. No course emails, no newsletter, and the address is not passed on. Ask and it is deleted; what is kept, and for how long, is in the privacy policy.
