Building an email list is one of the most important aspects of your business, but I know from experience that it can be really easy to fall into the comparison trap when it comes to the size of your list. Today’s guest is Tarzan Kay, and her story is proof that when it comes to email lists, the quality of your subscribers matters much more than the quantity.
Tarzan is a launch strategist and copywriter who also teaches others how to have a healthy relationship with money. She recently finished in an impressive fourth place for affiliates of Amy Porterfield’s Digital Course Academy, with a list of 3,000 people (compared to other affiliates with much bigger lists)!
In fact, she generated about $35,000 in affiliate commissions from the promotion, which shows that you absolutely do not need a big email list to make big money in your business.
Today Tarzan shares all of her secrets of how to engage a smaller email list for maximum results. We talk about the segmenting to use to increase engagement and sales from your list, and why you shouldn’t be sending your newsletter to everyone that has subscribed to it. She also gives two big reasons why her audience loves her so much, which you can start using in your business – today!
