How to grow your email list? 💌

A valuable bait works.

From my experience ebooks or case study, pdf downloads have worked the most. Right now the most popular method is promoting a webinar on YouTube, Facebook and Instagram to capture email ids of prospects, then follow them up with weekly free content. Many also scrap their existing LinkedIn network to kickstart their newsletter and slowly filter them out. Compared to other social networks, on LinkedIn eBooks are quite popular than webinars.

Hi @copybycarmen! We've found that creating rich and authoritative, problem-solving content that targets our niche audience was best for ROI. We only boost content on social media or create a lead magnet (like we did here: https://buff.ly/2FkK61N) around topics or content that's already proven to perform. Cheap and fast gimmicks to get email list subs up seem to always come at the cost of lower open rates and decreasing your inbox reputation.

I know that offering some sort of free resource that provides a lot of value works pretty good, but depends on what kind of people you want in your email list and what resource are you providing.

Hello

#1 by far is offering a product that is free or low entry point. Ideally it hints at your value proposition quickly.

Hi

I do not want this anymore

We've done a few campaigns - something like bounty campaigns, so if you want to get the rewards or raffles, you need to sign up for the email, follow us on twitter, and etc. These campaigns work really well.
