The email list.

The El Dorado of web entrepreneurs and online marketers. Everybody wants (a great) one.

Some ignore its power, others are very aware of it and try different ways to grow it – but without much success.

In some of the previous episodes of the 360 Entrepreneur Podcast we talked about the importance of having an email list. There hasn’t been an episode entirely dedicate to email lists yet, though.

Well, that’s for today!

In this episode you’re going to learn how to dramatically boost your email list using a very special strategy: giveaways.

Today’s guest, email marketing expert and programmer Josh Earl – aka “the Giveaways Guy” – leveraged a free giveaway to grow his list to nearly 200,000 subscribers in 11 days! That’s right, no typos here: almost 200k email subscribers in 11 days, which, for Josh, translated into a growth of 3,418%.

So, how can you follow Josh’s footsteps and make your email list explode with giveaways?

The conversation with Josh answers that question and touches on several aspects related to email list building and email marketing, including why most email list don’t grow, what you should think about when crafting your lead-magnet(s), the content upgrade technique and the types of lead-magnets that work well.

And last, but certainly not least, Josh shares his story, the steps and tools he used to boost his email list with giveaways – and talks about how you can do the same!
