Can you build your email list without throwing loads of money and ad budget at it?

A lot of the list building training out there basically says that you can just throw a few thousand dollars on ads and boom, you’ll have a huge list full of ideal customers.

A thread...
Can you still build a list as a small business owner without a huge ad budget?

Many think it's not possible, However, this has been done before, it is still being done.

How? Let me blow your mind.
1. Guest Blogging - This is when you write content for another person's website.

Create a blog post and put on the blog, and of course, in that blog post, you have a credit and a link that leads to your own website or landing page.
2. Quora - This is like what Yahoo! answers used to be.

Take 45mins a day to write amazing answers to questions in your niche

It's frowned upon to ask people to ask for email addresses

You can direct them to a blog post where you talked about their question then collect emails
3. Tiktok - Yes, the same one

TikTok isn’t just for videos of dancing Ferrets.

You can actually build your brand on TikTok, make videos relating to your niche, gain people's attention then you direct them to your landing page
4. Email Promotion Swap

This is where you swap subscribers with a fellow list builder

You send your best offers to their list and they do the same for you.
5. Twitter - a lot of us do this, we release a "free ebook" on Gumroad,

Most people rush to download it thereby giving us their email addresses.
