Here’s why you should use Instagram to start a newsletter
As I have said in previous emails, Instagram can be a very good earner.
But, it is also a very good platform for growing an email list.
Email is actually one of the highest converting marketing channels.
All of the ways to monetize your IG page can also be done for an email list.
Like newsletters? Here are some newsletters you might enjoy.
If you can use Instagram to grow an email list, you can end up with a situation where you have the email list as well as the Instagram page driving revenue.
And you can combine them together. So, if a business wants to do a sponsored post on your IG page, you can also offer a placement into one of your emails.
And the email list also protects you from the possibility of losing the Instagram page.
I would say that one email subscriber is worth about 20 followers on your IG page.
So, if you have 10k people on your email list, I would say that’s about as valuable as a 200k IG page.
To grow the email list from IG, you need to grow the IG page. Once the page is getting good engagement, you just need to tell people to comment a certain word in order to get a free resource such as a PDF.
Once they comment the word, you can use Manychat to collect their emails then put it into your email software such as Beehiiv.
This is why you see people saying “comment “X” to get the free guide” it is getting you into their email list.
Then once the person is in the email list, you can have an automated welcome sequence setup which is designed to promote your paid stuff.
