You do a remarkable job of being well-researched & highly structured, but making us think it is a casual conversation between friends - lol! Keep up the great work.
Such an informative video, Millie! Aside from the things you mentioned, I would also like to add something. If businesses do not have email list yet but want to start building, they can start with targeting locations first. By using a few search tools, they can achieve the ultimate goal of building an email list from scratch. Step 1: Use a USPS Address Lookup to target locations of audience you want to reach Step 2: Use data append tool to unlock who resides in the generated addresses (if residential), including their email address Those two tools help businesses to build email list from scratch instead of resorting to buying leads which usually come out unqualified with high bounce rate.
I love that you support BIPOC creators/businesses and actually mention it. I feel like I can share your vids w my teammates for this reason. We’ve spent HOURS looking for coaching channels/vids/content in this industry that isn’t made by yt folks and/or doesn’t only cater to yt folks. IG and FB algorithms do hide BIPOC (and sometimes queer/trans) content that they think might make yt ppl uncomfortable. For those of you that might get annoyed or don’t understand - Aside from the algorithm issue, entrepreneurship is one of the only ways available to some people to get out of the poverty, so representation is really important to show people that they can help themselves! When an industry is majority anything (white, make, straight, etc.) inequality will exist. It becomes a real issue when people don’t want to talk about it. Thank you for your work!
The email list is more alive than ever 😀 Loved the stats you included right here! I can't even emphasis how important building an email list actually is. 👍
@@MillieAdrian REALLY enjoy your videos and also subscribed to your newsletter. Looking forward to applying these tips for my business. Your platform ROCKS! Thank you!!!!
Absolutely love your content 🤍🕊️✨ Your soft biblical femininity, strong convictions and firm stand on truth and foundation on Jesus. Just beautiful, God bless you and your family sister 🙏🏼
Started watching this as i am planning to start a mailing list for my photography business. at the part though were you talk about what if TikTok suddenly went out of business and that it probably would never happen i almost spat out my coffee from laughing... You totally jinxed Tiktok in the US lol
Wow, I so hate receiving emails from websites and channels, I would always unsubscribe from receiving emails cuz I would always get spammed like over 100 emails per day, couldn't cope with so much, time is precious
I have watched a lot of video on RUclips, but I really like yours because they are actionable. You don't give only advice, but a way to do it. So thanks for this video :)
I’d like to do an email list, but I struggle with what content I would be putting in each email that people would care enough about (my niche is travel)
RACHEL! There is so much you can talk about within your niche! If it's hard to thing of content ideas, then only send an email once a week. Or once every other week with a simple travel tip you've learned 🥰
I just found you this week and I’ve been watching a bunch of your videos! Thank you so much for these great tips, I’m really trying now to improve on this side of things! 💪🏼

Great video! You're really so easy to listen to and give such concrete advice. I was wondering, do you have a suggestion for what's the best app to generate the list? I mean, technically you could collect people's emails via Google Forms or something like that, but there are a bunch of more advanced options. What's best for someone just starting out at beginner level?
Hi David! Great question! Of course my answer will vary depending on your goals and budget, BUT without that information, my top recommendations: If you have a website already, usually your website host will offer email marketing as an "upgrade". Like Squarespace!! If you don't have a website, then I would use Flodesk! They have an email list collector 'form' option so you don't need to have a website to send your freebie or build your list 🥰
Can you do updated content like this for list building tips, newsletter writing ideas, content strategies for writing your newsletter, nurture campaign stuff. Not so much specific campaigns but the nurture list
watching this in 2023 and when she said what will happen when social media disappears (but didnt mention twitter) i laughed so hard - starting an email list now
4:48 For Christian Content Creators, I've done some studying and found out that Yoga is demonic and comes from Hinduism which have multiple gods. Also Tattoos are also bad and in the Book of Leviticus God said that we should not print marks upon ourselves, God also doesn't want us playing with magic in the book of leviticus but I am not condemning anyone it's better to ask God for these things but this is what I've found. I love these videos and your content in general thanks for the help. 😁
Thank you for your video its really easy to follow. In my online business we sell handmade items such as Earrings, Earring Storage etc I am wondering what freebie can I offer to entice people to join our VIP list. ATM we do offer a monthly prize draw. I was thinking SMS marketing might be a better option as I like most people get so many marketing emails in my inbox that I now just delete and don't really look a them as I am time poor.
great video. But what email do I use to send out emails? gmail? email provided by your web hosting? or a different email hosting provider. I have my domain set up with namecheap, but I've read they are horrible with customer service and your emails get sent to spam.
Hey Mille, I've started my e-mail list and started with a freebie, an affordable meal plan and I have created some PDF files for instance like a homemade dog food recipe, and I want to sell that PDF file but don't really have enough going to start an entire website yet. Is there a platform or website you recommend selling PDF files off of for someone just starting?
I love your channel Millie, but I really didn't think this video was very helpful. You titled it how to start and grow your email list from 0 but all you actually said was "make a freebie". I skipped all of the "why" part of the video because you've made a video on that before (which I've watched). I would've appreciated actually giving us ideas on how to grow a list, like where and how to promote your email list. I appreciate that you want people to sign up to your course but this honestly wasn't even slightly helpful.
Hi Becky! Thank you so much for your feedback! When I first mentioned email lists on a previous video I had sooo many people who didn't even know what that was so my goal with this video was to make it as simple and basic as possible, then if it performed well and people seemed interested, I would continue on with a series on my channel. I didn't even think to include all the other advanced steps, didn't even cross my mind! 🙊 You're such a sweetheart for being honest and I'll be sure to title my videos more accurately in the future 🧡🧡
You “promote your list” when you promote your leads. For example, say if your freebie (or exclusive offer) was a checklist and you told people to go grab it, that’s promoting your list. Picking up what I’m putting down?
Thanks for the video but inequality is not a problem. It's a virtue signal. Treating people with dignity no matter their beliefs is where the problem is.
I thought this was a video on how to make an email... very disappointed because I need an email first to do anything of this. I've called Googel like 30 times and they won't answer. Bling won't answer either. I need help. Please make a video for me
Thank you for watching today's video! Here's my FREE eBook on how to start, grow and serve your email list: itsmodernmillie.com/email-list

The imaginary scenario actually happened for like 6 hours yesterday.
You are the greatest ❤
If that isn't a sign then I don't know what is!!!

Email list is sooo important!!!! And with automations your life is definitely easier!
The email list is more alive than ever 😀 Loved the stats you included right here! I can't even emphasis how important building an email list actually is. 👍
YES! It's more alive now than ever! I also looovvvee including little stats because its straight FACTS
Yes!! Start NOW!!! Wish I would have right from the beginnning!
Better late than never!!😍 💪🏼
Really intesting ideas. I didn't think about the e-mail list before.

I’ve been binge watching your videos and have learned so much!!
Awesome breakdown. I've been growing my email list and surely, it's super useful! 💯
Right!?!? It's going to be something that you look back on and say "dang. I'm glad I started that a long time ago" 😂
Wow, I so hate receiving emails from websites and channels, I would always unsubscribe from receiving emails cuz I would always get spammed like over 100 emails per day, couldn't cope with so much, time is precious
That’s those companies that email too much. I feel you.

Very nice video
Thank you for your advice
watching this in 2023 and when she said what will happen when social media disappears (but didnt mention twitter) i laughed so hard - starting an email list now
Love this. I wanted to ask, how do I start off an email list. Do I create an email list on a website, through excel etc
If you have a website host already, usually they have a way to make your email list within their software! If not, look into Flodesk!
@@MillieAdrian ah thank you. I was planning to use google email list
Awesome video Millie thanks x
awesome video! Thank you :)
No no no, thank YOU🥰
Love your shirt!
I love your videos
You are so motivating! I started my email list but having a hard time figuring out what service I should use or just do gmail.
It’s as if you knew about last night! 👍🏼😂
I may or may not have predicted the future 😂
Loved this video (especially after that whole IG outage...anyone else hear about that?). 😂

I go through daily and empty my email list 😌 I’m proud to say that I am currently under 100 in my inbox 📥
That's impressive!
Excellent ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ok...but HOW do you do this?? That's never answered.
Bunch of videos telling you why you should build an emails list but not really showing you how to. Another time wasted!😢
Nice
Thank you!
You never really showed us how to start an email list. 👎
great video. But what email do I use to send out emails? gmail? email provided by your web hosting? or a different email hosting provider. I have my domain set up with namecheap, but I've read they are horrible with customer service and your emails get sent to spam.

only English translation available unfortunately😢
I'm Falling in love 💕 thank you,
I absolutely prefer RSS/atom news feeds
You didn't tell us how to make an email list.
Why did TikTok almost disappeared last year?
Trump almost banned it in America because of “misinformation” ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Picking up what I’m putting down?
Total waste of time - does not actually tell you how to set up an email list; just what an email list is.
You already need to have followers and subscribers to make an email list. So um, no you aren't making this video for beginners.
Thanks for the video but inequality is not a problem. It's a virtue signal. Treating people with dignity no matter their beliefs is where the problem is.
I need to know how to create the email list like... in my email
I thought this was a video on how to make an email... very disappointed because I need an email first to do anything of this. I've called Googel like 30 times and they won't answer. Bling won't answer either. I need help. Please make a video for me
