Using Twitter and LinkedIn to Get Your First 100 Subscribers
Good work in the last lesson!
You’ve now manually reached out to 125 people to invite them to join your list.
99% of people don’t make it this far.
Congrats on not being scared to get outside your comfort zone.
Your reward?
MORE MANUAL OUTREACH.
Today's assignment: Reach out to 100 LinkedIn and Twitter contacts and send them a personal invitation to join your list.
Remember: Don’t spam your friends. Individually craft each email to the person you are sending it to. If you don’t have a LinkedIn or Twitter account, that’s ok. Double down on the social channels that you do have.
Here is a sample script you can use for your LinkedIn and Twitter contacts:
Message 1: [once your prospect responds and you chat a bit] I’m working on a new project on [insert topic]. Though it might be something you would dig. Want in?
Message 2: [once they respond positively] Awesome! What's your best email? I’ll send you over my first article when it’s ready.
Bonus Tip: If you make it through your email, Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter contacts and haven’t gotten 100 names and emails on your list, that’s ok. Look for other places where people you know hang out. Get creative.
Can you call the last 50 people you’ve talked to on the phone and invite them?
Can you text the last 50 people you’ve texted with and invite them?
