EP 67: How to Write an Email Welcome Sequence

I don't think I was 5 minutes into learning about online business before I started hearing how important it was to "grow your list."

 

It seemed like everyone was talking about how important it was to collect email addresses, and how valuable of an asset a big list is.

 

So, naturally, I got to work.

 

Only to find out how difficult it is to "grow your list."

And you know what made this even more frustrating? The people who DID join my list didn't buy anything.

 

So there I was, working my tail off to try to "grow my list," spending real money on my email marketing software, and not seeing any real returns.

 

What was I doing wrong??
