- Does anyone know how to garner emails for your email list as an author?
@BRENDA_K_WARD Happy to see you in our Community, welcome
Unfortunately, I didn’t quite understand your use case. Could you please share more details?
I don’t have that many emails to form a marketing blast. I wondered if there were any sources to obtain an email list.
Hi @BRENDA_K_WARD, you’ve raised a very interesting question!
What I can say from our experience, there is actually no fast and easy way to build a solid audience, it really takes time and efforts. I’d suggested you try the following tried-and-tested ideas :
-
If you have a website, provide useful and helpful content so that your potential audience/clients can really benefit from it.
-
Apart from the content, add widgets to collect emails from your website visitors. For instance, our Popup and Subscription Form widgets do have an option to collect emails, plus they support integration with MailChimp for further work with your email list.
-
Stay active on your social media and encourage your audience to join your email list for updates.
-
Don’t hesitate to reach out to your audience and ask to share your content in their circles, it’s totally ok!
-
Collaborate with other authors or creators on events, content swaps, etc. - in this case both parties can expand their audience.
-
Patience and consistency play a great role here too, so it’s ok if things don’t go the way you expected right away
If you have any other questions or if there’s anything else we can help you with, feel free to let us know here!
I may need a new domain name. Thanks
