It certainly is in mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve been building an email list for more than 15 years, and many of my readers ask me for the magic bullet that builds a qualified list quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So far, I haven&#8217;t found it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What I have found are <strong>many ways<\/strong> to build a list, including those on social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, my LinkedIn profile includes <strong>&nbsp;one Project<\/strong> and <strong>one Publication<\/strong> that lets people know I publish email tips on how to get free publicity a twice-a-week. They both lead to <a href=\"http:\/\/PublicityHound.com\/tips\/sample\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this page<\/a>, which I use to &#8220;sell&#8221; people on the benefits of signing onto my list. I created the page using <a href=\"http:\/\/link.leadpages.net\/aff_c?offer_id=6&amp;aff_id=11840\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LeadPages<\/a> (affiliate link). It lets you build beautiful opt-in pages and sales pages.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ll share more tips when I&#8217;m a guest on a Blab hosted by social media expert Melody Jones from noon to <strong>1 p.m. Eastern Time<\/strong> on <strong>Thursday, May 5. <\/strong>It&#8217;s called &#8220;How to Use Social Media to Build an Email List.&#8221; If you&#8217;re familiar with Blab, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/blab.im\/melody-jones-how-to-use-social-media-to-build-an-email-list-with-joan-stewart\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">register here.<\/a>&nbsp;If not, keep reading.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Join Us on the Blab<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Blab is a live-stream app that lets you watch and participate in interviews, talk shows, casual hangouts, debates and other discussions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To join, <strong>you must have a Twitter account.<\/strong> You also must sign up for Blab and link it to your Twitter account.
