How to Grow Your Email List (Even If You're a Total Introvert)
We all know that to get the most out of your email list, you need to grow and maintain it. But how? If you're anything like me, the prospect of cold-emailing or going on social media everyday can feel overwhelming!
The internet has made it easier than ever for introverts to grow their email list. With a little bit of research and creativity, you can harness the power of social media to extend your reach far beyond what would be possible in person. In this blog post, we’ll go over 4 strategies that will help you get started.
-
Sign up for accounts on social media platforms like Linkedin, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest. Introverts typically prefer these types of channels because they allow them to maintain a more personal connection with their audience.

Find ways to craft content that connects to fellow introvert: create something that people will want to share online or ask your followers if there’s an article you’ve written they think would be popular.

Build relationships with influencers: find people who have a large following on social media and connect with them to help promote your new project or website. Some good places to start are Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook Pages and Instagram Direct Messages.
-
If you're an ambivert (extraverted introvert) like myself, consider hosting an online radio or tv show and interview people who have information that can add value to your followers. Ask listeners to sign up to your email list to access exclusive interview content.
