Take Your Business to the Next Level
It's easy to build an email database for your blog. It's the secret weapon that will take your blog from mediocre or non-existent to one that is thriving.
Now you have your blog running and some traffic is coming in. But what is the next step that will help you take your blog to a higher level? According to experts, it's getting to know the best way to build an e-mail list. Here's the reason:
- It allows your readers to get to know and love you.
- Email marketing is a great way to communicate with your visitors via email.
- It encourages them to come back for more.
- If you have an email list, you'll make more money.
- If you can build an email network from the traffic that you receive, you can continue to reach those people. Instead of worrying about getting lots of new visitors to your site, you can build relationships with people who already have.
- It is important that people come around to read your blogs. Also, you want to attract readers who will keep coming back to you for more.
- Cold traffic can become warm leads.
- A loyal reader base increases when you have an email list
Cold traffic is traffic that does not know you and, therefore, it doesn’t completely trust you. Warm traffic, however, is the traffic you can build with email lists that you create when people visit your site. It means that they trust you more, and are more likely to take a step towards buying from your site.
The Direct Marketing Association states that there is a $32 ROI for every $1 you spend on email marketing.
It's packed with excellent advice and it's time I took notice and set up email marketing. I paid a monthly fee for 12 months to Aweber but never took advantage of it. That was prior to Aweber offering a free subscription!
I will return to your training asap.

Time can certainly get away from us.
MailerLite also offers a free service to 500 subscribers for non MMO websites. Although friends of mine prefer MailChimp as it has an auto RSS feed to send your posts out to your subscribers.
I prefer Aweber and send a newsletter out once a week.
It all takes time to get your head around and set up.
Let me know how you go.

I will let your know how it goes!
I experienced using MailChimp for some business clients when I had my secretarial business. MailChimp and I never came to good terms with each other!! That's more than six years ago.

I usually only have one welcome sequence and then I classify them and start sending my weekly newsletter. In the newsletter, I often offer a free gift or a promotion but not in everyone.
I rarely have people unsubscribe as they don't feel inundated with emails daily. Once a week seems to work for my subscribers and I keep it consistent and send them out to arrive in their email boxes on a Sunday morning so they have time to read them.

Have a lovely week.
