Keen to use email marketing to grow your business? Cool. On your website, offer visitors something of high perceived value to them, but at a low cost to you. In exchange for their email address, they get it for free. It might be an eBook. A video full of helpful tips. A one-off discount coupon. Over time you build an email list of prospects, that you then communicate with on a regular basis. The result? More loyal customers. More sales. And the lifetime value of those customers increases exponentially. Sounds good, huh? It’s a retentive episode 616 of The (13 year-old, award-winning) Small Business Big Marketing podcast with host Tim Reid.

A little more about email marketing expert Adam Robinson …

Adam Robinson is the founder of Retention.com, a company laser-focussed on solving the #1 problem marketers and eCommerce brands face today: growing, engaging, and re-activating their email database.

In just two and half years, and with zero funding, Adam has grown Retention from zero to $14M in annual recurring revenue. Trust me, he knows what he’s doing!

We cover plenty of marketing ground including:

• Why you need an email database and how to build one
• If you have built an email database, you’ll discover how to best engage with it
• The role polarisation plays in attracting and retaining customers
• Plus Adam shares some great case studies covering all of the above

Now, I intended to kick things off by asking Adam how he became a retention expert, but we were quickly side-tracked when he mentioned just how much he paid for his business’s domain name!
