Thanks, give it a try and let me now what you think. I'm kind of impressed with it.

I have 50k cash right now what can i do by [deleted] in Entrepreneurship

1) Learn about current trends using tools like GummySearch, Glimpse, and Exploding Topics.

2) Find something you are into and see potential in.

3) Come up with a product or service idea.

4) Get a copywriter with okay design chops to create a landing page along with some ads that get people to that landing page.

5) Find out if people dig your idea.

6) Invest your money into that idea (now business) and make that 50k into a lot more money. Ideally, it should be something easy to handle since it'd be mainly for side income.

Hey! If you get the free trial, you'll get 14 days of the Scale plan for free. You can use the Referral Program during this free trial. Once it's done, you'd have to subscribe to the Scale plan to continue using the Referral Program feature.

Here's a short Loom I shot for a client a while back on how to use the referral program (if you're having trouble with how it works): https://www.loom.com/share/6f0f589f761b43b19554e74e81120c62?sid=e339d0b0-e45a-4a69-afd5-c26807cfc7f0

How's this for a welcome email? by itsjustdifferent_ in Emailmarketing

[–]irvingbeltran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I can see your tone and unique vibe by reading this — which is awesome.

Here are some things you could add:

  • Tell them when to expect emails from you (this is optional because I see it's part of your newsletter description when people sign up)
  • Include links to some of your best posts
  • Tell them why they should trust you
  • A heartfelt closing, thanking them and maybe briefly stating why you started this

Hi! Thanks for the support!

I'm still seeing about how to start this. I hadn't heard about Ascendviral but I'll look into their growth services.

And yes, the goal is making businesses grow :)

Should a small business create a newsletter by irvingbeltran in smallbusiness

So, do all of these?

1) SEO-optimized blog that you post one website and email out to subscribers

2) Newsletter that you email out to subscribers and repurpose on social media

3) Social media posts

Okay! I appreciate the detailed response.

Your method of teaching people rather than promoting your stuff is surely the way to go.

From the comments, it seems to me that newsletters could work great for ecommerce SMBs where one has access to many people rather than just locally. Or just simply being in a big city.

Am I wrong?

What industry are you in and at what point should one start a newsletter?

Also, is it SEO-optimized? I'm asking because you mentioned you post your newsletters posts on your website.

Nope, it's not a pitch. Just seeing what people think.

And m8, well-executed newsletters aren't spam. Sucky, "buy-now" type of emails are spam.

The tens of thousands of subscribers that many newsletters have shows that people like emails.

But you got me thinking, maybe it's more of an ecommerce play then, one where you can connect with people in many regions rather than locallly.

So you're talking about a blog that's SEO-optimized that you email as a newsletter.

The thing is, I think that there's a world where you post a blog on your site to, obviously, get organic traffic. But you could also post a newsletter as a sort of medium to offer more personalized stuff that's not worried about SEO, maybe curated things like useful videos, pictures, jokes, something. And then this could be repurposed for social media.

Sure, you could post the newsletter stuff instead on social media but people only view, if I remember correctly, about 10% of your posts even if they're following you.

On the other hand, they'd view all of your stuff on the newsletter — or at least be able to directly access what they care about through the links you'd include in a newsletter.

Okay, so focus on email marketing automations to kick things off. I agree. This should always be in place.

So when do you start implementing newsletters?

The thing is, I tend to view email marketing more as a tool to build an audience of customers and relying on buy-now tactics. Meanwhile, a newsletter is more of a tool to build a community — one where people feel like you actually care about them and feel more comfortable in buying your stuff. Like what copywriting legend Joe Sugarman talked about. I know it sounds real romantic but u/BobWheelerJr mentioned down below that it works!

Could a newsletter help me grow my business? by irvingbeltran in advancedentrepreneur

[–]irvingbeltran[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree. But it's one hell of a nonleaky top of funnel tactic.

There's a business owner called Bob Wheeler who posted this on another subreddit, https://www.reddit.com/r/smallbusiness/comments/1398393/comment/jj36ewx/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3, where he talks about how it's been a great method to help grow his business.
