Why You Should Build an Instagram Email List
If you know how to leverage Instagram email lists you can definitely increase brand awareness and even sales.
Josh Spector, marketing and business consultant at For The Interested newsletter, noticed a significant difference between emails and social media impressions. With 27K followers, his tweets got only 20-30 clicks. The same link emailed to 23K subscribers got over 1K clicks. This shows that emails are much more effective for driving traffic than social media.
So, here are a few ways you can benefit from your Instagram email list:
- Reach out to creators: You can always send cold emails for potential collaboration to creators because you have their contact info. Plus, the email list serves as a backup for the necessary contact info.
- Scale your business through newsletters: You can send a newsletter to the people of your list. So, if you have an email list of your ideal target, you can promote your products and services. The approach looks more personal compared to your business social media profiles or website, plus the email format allows you to be as detailed as you want.
- Targeted marketing campaigns: Facebook for example allows you to upload an email list and run custom audience ads. This way you can make sure the advertising money is well spent as you will run your ads just to your target audience.
- Drive traffic to the website: Newsletters are one of the best ways to drive traffic to your site or bring more leads. Google finds that active newsletters have a 22% open rate and are 10x more likely to become paid customers.
Account Management: Having the email addresses of your Instagram followers can help you keep in touch with your audience no matter what. The thing is, you can never be fully in charge of your Instagram account. Instagram can be down for a few hours or days, you might get hacked, or else. So, even if you are not interested in sending emails to your followers anytime soon, having an Instagram email list built will be your backup so you won’t be left without anything if something like that happens.
