3 Tips for Growing your Email Subscriber List

There are plenty of ways to grow your email subscriber list, and at Email By Design we love trying a variety of strategies to make that happen for our clients. We know how important this part of email marketing is to healthy 'growth', so make sure you're nourishing your efforts here to help your brand thrive. If you're after tips for growing your list, keep scrolling. We've got the good stuff.

Three tried-and-tested tips
Valuable content
Incentives
Optimised sign-up forms
1
Give them a reason

Create valuable content

No one's interested in lacklustre, generic content. You've got to bring something juicy. Serve up genuinely valuable, relevant content and watch subscribers flock:

Lacklustre
Generic, forgettable, easy to ignore.

Valuable and relevant, the kind people sign up to keep getting.
2
Sweeten the deal

Offer incentives

Most people need a little nudge to get them over the line (and you into their inbox). Get creative with an incentive. Discounts and dollar-off promos are great, but they're not your only options:

Make it effortless

Optimise your sign-up forms

Make it easy for people to sign up by optimising your forms, and the way to find what works is testing. Start with these two:

Test, then let the results decide
Format
Pop-up
vs
Fly-out
Timing
Instant
vs
Delayed

Testing format and timing against each other shows you exactly what drives the most growth for your audience, rather than guessing.

The payoff, in real numbers

A bigger list isn't about luck. It's valuable content, a real reason to join, and a form that gets out of the way.
