27: Start Your Email List (Even if You're Just Starting on TPT) Beginner Friendly Way

🎙️Start Your Email List Now: Why You Can’t Rely on TPT Alone (and What to Do Instead) Why waiting is costing you sales — and how to start simply Most teacher authors don’t think about building an email list until the day their sales dip, their social reach tanks, or TPT traffic slows down. By then, it’s obvious—you don’t actually own your audience. In this episode, I’m breaking down why every seller needs an email list (yes, even if you’re still growing your store), when to start one, which platforms are best for beginners, and how to set it up without overcomplicating anything. I’ll also share how I started mine when I had around 50 products, how emailing actually helped me create more, and why unsubscribes don’t need to scare you. ✨ In this episode, you’ll learn: ✅ Why you can’t rely on TPT or social media alone ✅ The best time to start an email list (hint: it's earlier than you think) ✅ Beginner-friendly platforms and current pricing ✅ What to send so it doesn’t feel salesy or awkward ✅ How often to email without burning out ✅ Easy lead magnet ideas that actually convert ✅ The simplest way to set up your opt-in, landing page, and welcome sequence 📌 Ready to get your list started the right way?
