List building is an important part of any digital marketing strategy and if you aren't doing it, then you're seriously missing out on your full potential. 


Here are some reasons why you should consider building your email list:


It's Reliable

One of the great things about having a list is that it's forever. Of course people can unsubscribe from your list at any time, but they usually don't unless their interests have changed or they may have changed their contact information. .


If you go through a busy season and you are not able to update your list subscribers regularly, you can come back to your list at a later time and it will still be there. Just be sure to apologize for your absence. Search engine optimization can be unreliable, especially if there are changes in the algorithms. It's crucial to have other means of reaching people. If you have an email list, then that's a guaranteed audience that’s interested in you and your product or service.


Who knows if Social Media sites like Facebook, Instagram and TikTok will be around in five years? You can almost guarantee that email will be!

It Allows You to Stay Top of Mind

Getting noticed online is increasingly difficult these days with so many sites and companies competing for our attention at all times. For this reason, the ability to reach someone directly in their inbox is a very useful ability.


It is an active form of marketing that can reach people anywhere and at any time. At the same time it can be highly timed so that your list receives your marketing messages at specific times of day so that it has maximum impact.



It's Personal

Your emails are personal and they allow you to approach your list members in an entirely different way. If you send an email to someone you can be casual and you can talk to them as though you were messaging them personally. This is great for building trust and familiarity with your audience and ultimately it can help you to become more natural when you try to sell your product or services.


If you have a successful website or business and you don't have an email list then you're literally throwing money away!
