Email #2: Open rate 44.2%, Clicks 11.6% Subject Line:​ Do this to Facebook-proof your business If you're relying on Facebook to generate traffic, then you might be setting yourself up for disaster. Case in point: A few years ago, the site Upworthy was a new media darling, generating 10s of millions of visitors a month and was one of the fastest growing websites in history. Then, Facebook decided to change their algorithm. Poof! Traffic gone! Upworthy took a huge hit because their traffic was reliant on a property they don't control. It's MUCH better to build your own media, that lets you generate traffic any time you want. Like your email list! With your own email list, you're no longer subject to the whims of Zuck (or Google, or Bing, or any other ad platform). You type up an email, hit "Send", and watch as sales come in. For that reason alone, growing your email list should be one of your top priorities. And the folks at Sumo are some of the best in the email list building game. Not only are they brilliant email marketers themselves, they also build software tools that companies like Airbnb and influencers like Tony Robbins and Tim Ferriss use to grow their lists. Anyway, they've put together this epic blog post that shows you how to get at least 1,000 new email subscribers in 30 days: How to get 1,000 new email subscribers in 30 days A.K.A. how to Facebook-proof (and Google-proof and Bing-proof) your business. If you want to achieve true traffic independence and not leave your livelihood relying on moody social media algorithms, you need an active, engaged email list. Of course, you also need to know ​what​ to say to the people on your list in order to get them to open, click and buy. And I'll tell you more about how to do that in a few days. Stay tuned...
