I just started a curated newsletter about personal finance for millennials. Each issue includes 10 curated articles from various sources about investing, budgeting, paying off loans, and etc. I do not have any subscribers yet.
Great question — growing your email newsletter takes more than just asking people to sign up. You need to give them a clear reason to say “yes.”
Here’s a step-by-step strategy that works:
1. Offer an Irresistible Freebie (Lead Magnet)
People don’t subscribe to newsletters — they subscribe to value.
Give away something helpful like:
- A free guide
- Checklist
- Toolkit
- Exclusive discount
- Access to a free mini-course or webinar
Make sure it solves a real problem your audience cares about.
2. Put Sign-Up Forms in Smart Places
Don’t just stick your form in the footer. Add it:
- At the top of your homepage
- As a pop-up or exit intent
- Inside your blog posts
- In your social media bio
- At the end of YouTube videos
- In your online store checkout process
3. Use Clear, Benefit-Driven Headlines
Instead of saying “Subscribe to my newsletter,” say:
- “Get weekly tips to grow your business (Free Toolkit Included)”
- “Join 5,000+ readers getting insider marketing secrets every Monday”
Make it about them, not you.
4. Promote It Consistently
- Post about it on social media
- Talk about it in podcasts
- Share it in online communities
- Add a call-to-action in your email signature
5. Use a Funnel System That Automates It
This is where Funnel Freedom comes in.
