I’ve been creating content online for a few years now, but there’s one thing I wish I'd learned much sooner:
|
Social media is like a rented land.
|
If you rely entirely on algorithms to reach your audience, you’re building your business on a foundation that can be quite rocky.
|
It took me way too long to realize this, but starting an email list completely changed the game for me, and it can do the same for you too - if you haven't build an email list yet.
|
#1 Email list = Best digital asset
An email list is one of the best digital assets you can build.
|
Why? Because it lets you write and publish your work without an algorithm deciding who gets to see it.
|
Nothing here depends on a trending sound, a shadow ban, or a sudden algorithm update.
|
It's simply you and the people who chose to hear from you - your email subscribers.
|
#2 Rental land vs your own home
Think of social media like rented land.
|
You don't own the platform, and your content lives on someone else's terms.
|
You have to follow their house rules. And they can change the algorithm, or the entire platform, overnight.
|
Your email list is different. It's your own home. No matter what happens on any social media app, your inbox stays yours.
|
#3 Feed vs inbox
Social media is where people first find you. It's where you create content that gets your ideal audience curious enough to follow you.
|
But some topics need more context than a feed allows.
|
This is where I love having an email list.
|
I can write and pour my heart out here, and you get the full story.
|
Your email list is where your audience actually gets to know you - and where they're far more likely to buy from you.
|
Through their inbox, you have their full attention, instead of competing with a hundred other posts in their feed.
|
And from my experience, most of the sales from my workshops, programs, and digital products have come from my email list - which is wild!
|
Considering I don't even have more than 1500 subscribers yet.
|
What exactly is a "third option"?
|
👉 It's building income and an audience that isn't tied to one job, one platform, or one place. It moves with you wherever life goes next.
|
#5 Don't underestimate your followers and silent fans
The people who like, comment, and save your content? And the one who occasionally slide into your DM?
|
They are the same people who'd happily read you in their inbox too.
|
I know, because I notice every follower and subscriber who shows up and engages (thank you! 😊).
|
This is to say that you don't need a lot followers, you just need some quality ones - people who actually enjoy what you put out there.
|
And if you already have some people who follow you on social media, it is easier to invite them to subscribe to your email list.
|
How can an email list earn you income? 💌
If you are using your social media to sell any kind of products, physical or digital, or doing affiliate, having an email list is just another next step!
|
Whatever you're posting about on Threads or IG, you can bring that same offer straight to your inbox.
|
You don't need a fancy funnel to start selling.
|
Your list is just a more direct line to people who already want to hear from you.
|
What to do next? ✨
👉 Pick one email platform this week and set up your very first sign up form.
|
👉 Message 5 of your most engaged followers, the ones who comment or DM you often, and personally invite them to join your list.
|
|
P.S. If you already have an email list but don't know what to send, reply to this email and tell me. I might just turn it into next week's newsletter.
