Four Essentials to Build Your List with Social Media
- Post often – Choose a place you like to connect with your audience. Don’t try to be everywhere at once. Focus on one place, master that platform, then slowly add another platform.
- Mix up your social media posts – use posts that are business, personal, about you, images, and quotes. Mix it up, don’t just do business and don’t just make it personal. Just be sure you’re adding value.
- Have a squeeze page – You need a place to send people so they’ll give you their email address. Offer a freebie that will get your audience excited to give you their email. Easily create a squeeze page with Clickfunnels
- Adjust depending on the platform – On Instagram, be sure to add a link to your squeeze page in your bio. On Twitter, post images and links to your squeeze page. On Facebook, make it personal and pitch with personality, post videos and quotes.

This got me thinking about having a more enticing opt-in and updating links on social media to go right to it. Thanks! It was also helpful to hear how sometimes we need to have different types of posts for different platforms. That’s been on my mind a lot over the past week, and this confirmed a need for some variety–not to just use the same posts in each place.
An enticing optin is the key to a good website, it’s essential if your goal is to sell anything and to resell. Most websites nowadays thrive on retargeting- give value up front with content, collect the email to give more value, and to retarget later when you have something to sell that is of high value and interest to your community.
