Do you have your own email list yet? Your list is the people who have opted-in to receive email from you — they want your newsletter/ezine. The great thing about building a list is that it gives you a group of people who are interested in your products or services that you have permission to […]
One of the cool entrepreneurs I connected with during the #blog30 challenge was Melanie Kissell. I invited her to share a guest blog post and gave her free reign on topic.
