Building Authority through Email with Igor Kheifets

The DigitalMarketer Podcast

In a crowded marketplace, how can we as digital marketers improve our list-building skills?

Email list building is ethical, effective, and cheap! Igor's insight into helping us recognize that email is the platform that puts people in the mood for any kind of financial transaction is genius.

After all, wouldn't you rather be transacting in sales from an email newsletter first thing in the morning than earning 'likes' from your latest social media post?

Also, it's about delivering educational, entertaining content that positions you as the authority in your niche so that when your subscriber is ready to pull the trigger on what you're offering, you are their 'go-to' person.

Igor's in conversation with TDMs Mark de Grasse and they're talking about the art and science of getting a potential prospect to give you their email address so that you can give them information on your business, follow up with them over time, and then convert them into a customer and (hopefully) repeat buyer.

There's also advice on how to grow your list through 'transferability' and getting mentions (landing page links) on other people's lists.

It's about changing the scarcity mindset that a marketer may be prone to adopting in believing that you're competing for that one person's email address, and appreciating that people can be on several lists at once.

Learn how to better guarantee sales results by targeting people with something they're already interested in by following Igor's succinct advice on email list building for both beginners and marketing pros alike!
