Email Marketing for Creators: Why Your List is Your Biggest Asset
Social media followers can disappear overnight. Your email list is the one asset you truly own. Here's how to build it.
Email Marketing for Creators: Why Your List is Your Biggest Asset
Social media algorithms change. Platforms rise and fall. But your email list? That's yours forever.
The Problem with Social Media
Let's be honest about the risks:
- Algorithm changes can tank your reach overnight
- Account bans happen without warning
- Platform decline (remember Vine?)
- You don't own your followers
Why Email Works
Direct Access
Your email goes directly to your subscriber's inbox. No algorithm deciding if they see it.
Higher Engagement
Email typically sees:
- 20-30% open rates (vs 1-5% social reach)
- 3-5% click rates
- Higher conversion rates
You Own It
Export your list anytime. No platform can take it away.
