Philip VanDusen - How to Grow Your Email List

Email is still the number 1 marketing tool for direct contact and engagement with your audience.
Building and maintaining a strong email list ensures that you own marketing real estate where you can engage an audience who is waiting to hear from you because they actually chose to sign up and subscribe to your content.

Sharing tips on how to build and grow your email list, I talk about:
● Nurturing engagement with a warm audience part of an email list VS starting from scratch with cold marketing efforts
● Recommendations on email subscription services
● Best practices on how to get people to sign up
● Steps to take to ensure your emails don’t go to spam
● Using content to lure people in, the kinds of assets you can offer, and where to place them on your website
● Producing evergreen content that drives traffic and captures emails even while you sleep
● The success of using my Brand Design Masters Facebook group as a watering hole to get more people to sign up
● Why website pop-ups work even if people seem to hate them
● More strategies to grow your email list like securing partnerships and interviews
● Catering to your audience’s preferences by offering different lead magnets while still capitalizing on your strengths as a creative pro
