If you’ve are just in the process of starting a newsletter, congratulations! Perhaps you are getting a few new subscribers each week but for the time it’s taking you to create your newsletter you really want to see subscription at least over a hundred and eventually much higher. How do you do this? You promote your email newsletter the same way you would promote your website or your blog.
You need to create:
* A call to action – Should express the frequency and the theme of the newsletter. Should say something like “Sign up for our Weekly Newsletter Featuring Email Marketing.
* A landing page – Describe why a visitor should subscribe, the frequency of your newsletter, the content, testimonials from those already receiving the newsletter, even a screen shot of the newsletter.
* The form page – This should be short and include first name, last name, social media info, company, email address. The briefer the form the better. You might not even include the last name.
* A thank you page – This page should once again tell the subscriber when they would receive the newsletter, and how they should add the sending email address.
