Email Marketing: What You Need to Make It All Work
When you think about building an email list, it can get overwhelming thinking about all the technology you need to work together to make it all work. Keep in mind that some of the systems are redundant, and you may not need all of these, but you will need the following:
Choose Your Email Marketing Technology Carefully
Once you know who your audience is, fully understand your reason for being, and know how the products and services you recommend benefit your ideal customer, then you can work on choosing the right email marketing technology that will work for you today and into the future as your business grows.
Learn to Focus on The Benefits of Your Offers
As you work to create products and content and build your list with smart lead magnets, learning how to focus on the benefits of your offers will help you a lot. You've likely heard the phrase "benefits over features" during your business studies. This is exactly what we're talking about here.
The main reason you must focus on benefits over features when explaining your offers is that your audience doesn't care about you or much about how. They only care about what you offer them and the results of those offers. "What's in it for them?" is the central question you need to answer.
Develop and Create a Mission Statement for Your Business
One way you can connect with your audience and ultimately build an email list full of potential customers who need your solutions – is to be very clear about what your real mission is. If you're unsure what your mission is, it won't be easy to communicate it to your audience.
Get Business Education: Know and Understand Your Offers
It's not uncommon for a business owner, especially a small mom and pop business online, not to fully understand what they are really selling. If you think you're selling website design, content writing, and customer service, for example, you may go into discussions with your customers on the wrong foot.
Once you get to know your competition and customers, it's time to create customer personas or client avatars. The process of developing customer personas will help you develop targeted products, services, and content that resonates with your audience. To create your customer personas or avatars, follow these steps.
It might seem strange if you're new to the business to spend time studying your competitors. In fact, some small business owners get afraid that the competition's existence makes it impossible for them to succeed.Develop a Deeper Understanding Regarding What Your Customers Expect
The only way you or any business owner can truly be successful in attracting their target audience is by understanding who they are. Many small business owners, especially people who start their business alone from home, often skip a few steps in the process, causing issues with finding an audience for your product.

Ikigai is a word that has its origins in the Japanese language. Some of my friends know I am curious about language, especially the Japanese language. I was surprised to learn Ikigai entered the English language in the 1970's and it means "ones personal reason for living". I love learning new things and I am naturally curious about life. I have a goal to be a published author before the end of this year and its not too late. If you ever thought you should write a book, sign up for the workshop and be inspired, learn a few new things, and meet some new friends. DM me for more details.
