Apryl explains that the only virtual asset you own is your email list. That’s why it's so important to build relationships with your subscribers.

Make sure to condition your audience for a give-and-take relationship by always putting a call to action in your message. Consistency can take you right up to the top or can simply kill your biz.

You need to communicate with your subscribers in a relatable voice and be sure to humanize your messages, rather than treating people like numbers. Email marketing is easiest when you write as if you're having a one-on-one conversation with your bestie.

Always have something to say in your emails, even if it isn’t about business. People love stories and when you weave your message into stories, people feel engaged and will follow what you say. | Show notes: https://awesound.com/@niczthename/apryl-beverly-on?auid=aGmaRW5c

People love to engage on Instagram and when you start engaging too by replying back to comments and liking and commenting on other people’s posts, you can quickly develop a relationship that’s reciprocal and authentic.
