What is an email list?
An email list is a collection of email addresses used by an individual or a business to send information to them about products or services. When emails are collected organically, businesses know that the individual is interested in their product and/or industry.
Even though social media gets lots of attention, the most valuable digital channel is building your email list for free. Building an email list is an important part of owning a business. If you have a decent email list, then you’ve got an asset that is valuable. And you can eventually sell to these people.
The problem with social media is you never own your likes or followers. Social platforms come and go, you can’t pay your bills with likes. If you had 1 million followers on Myspace today that would not be useful for your business.
Its essential to take your likes and followers and turn them into email subscribers. Once you build a list your business now is worth more, if someone was to buy your business they would be buying your customer list first and foremost.
