Tip: Email lists are incredibly valuable but they can be slow to grow. Create a Facebook Group and convert potential members into subscribers during the signup process.

Thread 👇
Facebook Groups were one of the main methods @SeanAnthonySays of GrowthResponse used to grow his email list to nearly 7,000 subscribers. It's free to start, and it allows him to build two assets at once (the group and the list).
To create a group that will grow your list, start by choosing a name that hits important keywords and will be enticing to people in your niche — this is important because it's one of the few data points a potential member will have about the group before joining.

Tip: While they may not be as popular as video content or articles, spreadsheets are often what audiences actually need. Get new customers by solving problems with useful spreadsheets.

Thread 👇
While working at Eventbrite, Ronnie Higgins created a simple spreadsheet to help people plan and track their event promotions. After spending 2-3 hours building it, Ronnie created a simple landing page and started getting it in front of people who were managing single events.

Thread 👇
According to Ahrefs, who appear to have a highly effective video strategy, the first steps to turning viewers into customers are pretty obvious:
Target videos that will get the right kind of traffic (i.e. your target market), and create high-quality videos. Simple enough (though not necessarily easy).

Tip: If your niche has its own lingo, it may be an SEO opportunity. Consider getting quality traffic and backlinks by defining niche keywords and creating a glossary.

Thread 👇
You can find people who are interested in learning about your niche by writing definitions for niche terms. Some of these people may even be researching for an article, which could mean backlinks.
Head to a site like Ahrefs or SEMrush and look for terms where the SERP returns definitions. Even better, search for "what is" keywords. You might be surprised by the lack of quality competition.
