What Kind of Emails Does a Trust-First Marketer Actually Send?
If you’ve landed on this page, you might be wondering what SoapboxBob is all about.
Fair question.
I write a weekly email newsletter for folks over 50 who are quietly wondering if there’s a smarter way to build a little extra income online – without being sold to every five minutes.
Today’s email to my subscribers was a good example of what I mean by that.
So I thought I’d share it here – almost word for word – and let you decide if it’s something you’d want showing up in your inbox.
The News That Stopped Me This Morning
The sky here in Calgary has been doing that midsummer thing it does – clear and blue well past nine in the evening.
Long June days have a way of making you feel like anything’s possible.
And then I saw the news.
Robin Hood’s famous hiding place – the Major Oak – a 1,200-year-old tree deep in Sherwood Forest, Nottinghamshire, England – has officially been declared dead.
It failed to put out a single new leaf this spring. After 1,200 years.
The RSPB – the conservation body that manages the forest – confirmed it. Scientists believe a combination of things brought it down: millions of visitors compacting the soil over decades, plus a string of increasingly hot and dry summers.
The tree will remain standing as a natural monument.
I think that’s fitting.
A 40-Minute Drive From Sherwood Forest
Now – I’m not usually the type to carry on about a tree dying in England.
But this one stopped me.
Because Nottinghamshire is where Internet Profits is headquartered.
Dean Holland’s company. The online business education program I point my readers toward.
About a 40-minute drive from Sherwood Forest.
And when you sit with that for a second, something interesting comes to mind.
Dean Holland’s Version of “Robbing the Rich”
The Robin Hood legend goes that he took from the rich and gave to the poor. Took the resources hoarded at the top and put them in the hands of everyday folks who’d been shut out.

Dean didn’t steal anything.
But what he did do – what he’s been doing for years – is take the systems, the strategies, and the know-how that used to belong only to well-funded marketers with big teams and resources most of us never had… and put it all in the hands of regular people.
People like you and me.
Folks who are sizing up retirement, maybe working a few more years than planned, and thinking there has to be another way.
Not a hustle. Not a scheme. A genuine, learnable skill set for building real income from home.
Over 1,300 People Later
The result?
Over 1,300 real, everyday people have gone through Dean’s program and built genuine income online.
Not a fairytale number.
A real one.
And when you know that his headquarters sits in the same corner of England where Robin Hood supposedly sheltered ordinary people from a rigged system – it’s hard not to smile at that a little.
The old oak is gone. 1,200 years of history, now a monument in the forest.
But what’s growing 40 minutes away? That’s still very much alive.
