For some companies that works, for others it doesn\u2019t. If that\u2019s not the right strategy for your business, savvy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sabaseo.com\/\">San Diego online marketing<\/a> experts offer other ways to build an email list.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Take Advantage of Social Media Sites<\/h2>\n<p>Place an opt-in form on your primary Facebook page or use your Twitter account to tweet a sign-up link. In this way, your email list can grow along with your social media following.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Show or Offer a Sample<\/h2>\n<p>As effective as ad copy can be at persuading a prospect to respond to a call to action, showing or offering a sample can perhaps be more effective. If you have a newsletter, link to an example of it from your opt-in form. Or, if you&#8217;re selling information products, offer them a free sample in exchange for their email address. Here are some other ideas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>webinar series (drawn from podcasts, or that get repurposed into podcasts)<\/li>\n<li>free phone coaching or lesson<\/li>\n<li>an interview about your new audience member that you edit and send back to them<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>3. Use Quick Response Codes<\/h2>\n<p>These are usually referred to as QR codes. They are the square &#8220;bar codes&#8221; that smartphones can scan and then display content. Use one of these to display your opt-in form. This is excellent for offline forms such as pamphlets, flyers, business cards, or even a sticker on your store window.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Offer an Email Receipt Option<\/h2>\n<p>This is often easier for your customer than keeping tracking of a paper receipt, so it can be very appealing. It can be especially helpful when the receipt will be used for a tax deduction.<\/p>\n<h2>\n5. Link to Your Opt-in Page<\/h2>\n<p>Put it in several locations and make it easy to click through. Just like you have an email signature, create social media signatures and include the link there.<\/p>\n<p>Need help with other marketing tactics? Saba, Inc. in San Diego can help!
