    5 Proven Proven Strategies You Can Use to Build Your Email List.

    5 Proven Proven Strategies You Can Use to Build Your Email List.

    5 Things You Can Do To Build Your Email List.
    1. Create a Lead Generation Offer
    Develop a free ebook or whitepaper and host it on a landing page that asks visitors to provide their email address in order to download it. This is called a "gated offer."

    2. Promote an Online Contest
    Use your social media accounts to host a free giveaway in exchange for contact information. Encourage entrants to click through to your website and sign up using their email address.
    • Wishpond
    • Thivehive
    • Gleam.io

    3. Create or Reference a Free Online Tool or Resource.
    Free online tools make your users' lives easier, and all they have to do is sign up with their email address. You can link to one but require an email address to send the subscriber the list.

    • Mortgage Broker, could offer a Rent vs mortgage calculator

    • A Consultant, who Provides College Scholarship Assistance to parents of High School Juniors and Seniors could offer a College loan calculator

    • Travel Agent, could offer a Travel budget calculator - Travel agent

    • Head-Hunter or Recruiter, could offer a Cost of living by state calculator
     

    4. Promote an Offer Through Facebook that Requires an Email Address.
    Promote content on your Facebook Timeline that your followers can sign up to access. Be sure to add social sharing buttons to the landing pages and thank-you pages you send them to so you encourage your leads to share those offers with their own networks.

    5. Create 'Bonus' Content.
    Not all gated content is worth it to a website visitor. In order to gain their interest, you need to give them free content first. Start with a blog post that offers beginner advice on a subject, then offer "bonus" content with more advanced tips that they can access by submitting their email address via a landing page.
    • ConvertKit
    • MailChimp
    • Active Campaign
    • Constant Contact
    • Aweber

    Why You Should Begin Building an Email List in Your Business Today!

    Why You Should Begin Building an Email List in Your Business Today!

    Increase Your Sales in Your Business By Consistently Building an Email List!

    If you are starting or currently running an online business you must continually be email list-building.  Your email list is one of the primary drivers of revenue. Email is the surefire way to create intimacy and build relationships with your potential customers. Email is the most efficient way to build trust. In fact, I would say email builds a deeper level of trust, because you can personalize it. 



    Each Day It's Get's More Difficult to Cut Through the Noise of Social Media to Reach Your Target Customer.

    The fast moving, every changing, cluttered with ads, social media feeds on Instagram and Facebook are not the place to build relationships. Social Media is where you build awareness. For the average business owner, it's too expensive to produce high quality videos daily. So the high levels of engagement that we used to get with simple image posts, today is only achieved with paid ads. So Idea of continuous posting is really a shotgun approach to marketing and acquiring customers. "Shotgun," meaning "Spray and Pray."  With this approach you hope you message lands in the feed of your potential customer. 



    You Can Build Trust, Nurture Customers, and Build Your Brand When You Have An Ever-growing Email List
    When you send an email, it's personal. Because your recipient requested (opted-in) to recieve emails from you.  Your email messages become opportunities to have conversations with your prospect. When you deliver value to your reader over email,  the will obviously anticipate your next email, expecting value again. As you become valuable your reader will want to reciprocate. 

    You will give them the opportunity to reciprocate through purchasing your products.  If your reader has been receiving value for free over email. Then an offer to continue to deliver more of what they have benefited from, will surely compel them to open their wallet.

    Have a question? Maybe you have a business or marketing problem you want my thoughts on?

    Don't forget to leave your first name and email address. (I promise won't publish your email address)

    Winding down for this last year, I can remember around this time last year, when I was able to set most of my goals for my business for 2018. Surprisingly I was able to reach most of them. I did it through using a formula I created.
