How To Successfully Grow Your Email List Using Facebook Pages




I’m not sure some business owners know how to grow their email marketing subscriber list using Facebook. Oh and yes, I’m sure you’ve seen how network marketers offer products that claim to do it for you if you are willing to pay a nominal fee and get others to buy the product you just spent your money on. I’m not knocking any of those products that proclaim to accomplish this for business owners. However, there are some things you should know before entering into any agreement to use any email marketing program that purports to grow your email subscriber base. Let’s look at the basics of email marketing.



Email marketing is by far one of the most lucrative and successful methods of making money online. Costs are low, and with so many different content automation products available, it is not time consuming. (It takes about an hour to build and design a contest or giveaway when you use a template.) Let’s face it, if you have an email mailing list of subscribers who have agreed to receive marketing messages from your company, then you are familiar with CAN-SPAM laws. Done properly, with compelling subject lines and copy, your business can obtain conversion rates as high as 40%. Using Facebook to grow your email marketing list will not increase your conversion rate that is pretty constant. However, Facebook email marketing will grow that list, adding more subscribers, while increasing brand awareness. The best way for your business to grow your email marketing list using Facebook is by integrating giveaways and contests in your promotional efforts.

To make it almost effortless, many email service providers offer templates that assist you in building and designing your contest or giveaway. Functioning like a one-box meal recipe, contest and giveaway templates need only images and copy. They even have social sharing options built in, so you don’t have to hunt for Facebook or Twitter icons and then create links for them. That’s done for you.

Your email marketing efforts on Facebook will really come to life and be successful if your audience is active and engaged in what your business posts. It also helps if you know your audience and what their needs are. Ask yourself, does my audience like my updates? Do they engage with posted content? If the answer is yes to both these questions, then Facebook giveaways and contests will increase your email marketing subscriber list.

The reason contests and giveaways work is because everyone likes freebies or likes winning things. It’s also a great way to say thank you to your customers and fans. Oh, and make sure you implement your contest or giveaway on a Facebook Business page and not your personal profile page (these should be separate anyway.)

Article Writing and the Email Marketer

You have got to have an opt-in list if you are an email marketer. There simply is no other choice. After Congress passed the CAN SPAM Act and it became law in 2004, you cannot legally send bulk marketing emails without the express consent of the recipients. If you do, you will be fined heavily. The law provides fines for up to $11,000 per incident. So...there you have it! You either have an opt-in list or you will have to find another way to make a living. One of the best ways to build your opt-in list is to write and market articles. Each time an article that you have written and submitted to an article bank for use by other website owners and ezine publishers, every name on their lists are exposed to a link to your website. If the articles are good and filled with relevant information, they can produce much traffic and many new opt-in subscribers. It isn't hard to write a marketable article. Marketable articles are short...only 300 to 400 words. The key ingredients...

Are You Successful Because of God, or Is It You?

I just read this article published by Marketo, titled: "The God Complex and the Importance of Trial and Error, " written by Jason Miller, it discussed a scenario where a company which wants to make detergent discovers how using a process of trial and error. The gist of the article summizes to create the theory which states do successful people have a God complex in which they refuse to believe, no matter the situation, that their way of thinking, their ideas are wrong regardless of the "complexity of the situation." Let me tell you why that article sticks out to me. I have been marketing successfully and unsuccessfully at times on the internet since 2001. I've had my super successful times as well as times when I've just plain walked away from projects. There was a period where internet marketing programs paid my bills for three years and financed lavish vacations to the Caribbean and other wonderful places many people...
