Email List
Quick Start
from Random Olive Guides
Why you need an email list
Don't get lost in the algorithm
Social media is unpredictable. You know what is predictable? And chronological? Email.
Warm people up
Keep an ongoing relationship going with your audience so that they remember you when it's time to buy something
Make more sales
People are more likely to click a buy button inside an email than navigate away from social media
Struggle with getting started on an email list and overwhelmed with too many options?
I’ll take a look at your business and your goals to develop customized recommendations on what platform to pick, what to offer your audience, and what to send on a regular basis.
Once you start collecting email addresses from people who adore you, you won’t be scared of losing your audience through those unpredictable algorithms and you will have a reliable way of telling them all the good stuff you’re working on.

Gold Star Comments!
"This guide has been SO helpful. You included so much I wouldn’t have even considered, and it was really easy to follow for someone who had no idea where to start with a newsletter. Also it’s so pretty and aesthetically pleasing, which we both loved (and found helpful in terms of being easy to understand)! We’re using pretty much all of your suggestions."
