What has helped you grow your email (newsletter) list? + My approach

Honestly, I take it easy with some promotions because I prefer subscribers who like to read long-form and try to "pull them in" to the story. The goal is not to have everybody that's why: – I haven't scrapped emails – I haven't used any lead magnet – I even do not have a website with a sign-up form Instead I: – have a clear CTA – contribute frequently – curate content for everyone – leave a link in the comments Despite the lower number I managed to get sponsors. What is your strategy when it comes to growing subscribers and how do you use a newsletter (more of a promo or writing stories)?

Setup Dubai Business
Growing an email (newsletter) list requires a combination of strategies, such as offering valuable content, using clear calls-to-action, and leveraging social media to drive sign-ups. Incentives like free resources or exclusive offers can also attract subscribers. My approach includes focusing on targeted marketing and continuously providing high-quality content. For those considering Dubai business setup, building an email list is essential to engage potential customers, increase brand awareness, and establish a solid online presence in the competitive Dubai market.

Definitely use content upgrades! Basically offer a free resource related to your blog post (like a checklist, template, video, etc.) in exchange for an email. Works like a charm to grow subs. Also collab with other newsletters in your niche to do newsletter swaps and cross-promote to each other's audiences. 📈💌

@tjlarkin Did you run only Google Ads or social media ads too?

To effectively grow my email newsletter list, I focus on offering compelling lead magnets like exclusive content and free resources, which incentivize sign-ups. Additionally, I leverage social media and existing networks to encourage sharing and referrals, maximizing outreach and engagement.
