The Email Sound Booth with Liz Wilcox

too many freebies? here's an idea


Listen Later

Feeling buried under a mountain of freebies? You're not alone — and Liz Wilcox, the Fresh Princess of Email Marketing, has been there too. In this short and super-practical episode, Liz shares how she solved her "too many freebies" problem back when she was an RV blogger by turning them all into one high-value resource library. Whether you've got 3 or 30 freebies floating around your business, this idea will help you simplify your list-building strategy and keep your audience excited to sign up.

Episode Highlights
  • The backstory: When Liz ran her first blog, The Virtual Campground, she created 12+ freebies — one for almost every blog post.

  • Her most ridiculous (and fun) one: "What's Your Disney Princess RV Personality?" — inspired by Moana — which brought in exactly one subscriber.

  • The moment she realized she needed a simpler solution — and created her first resource library.

  • How to set up your own:

    • Combine all your freebies into one organized library.

    • Give it a name that fits your brand (hers was called The Hookup).

    • Offer instant access when people join your list.

    • Replace individual opt-in links with one signup page that leads to everything.

  • Why this works better: fewer links to manage, less overwhelm for your audience, and an easy way to showcase your best content.

  • A quick look at her old Virtual Campground signup page, which converted well because it was clear, themed, and value-packed.

  • A reminder to check out List Building Live (March 11–13) for more creative ways to grow your list.

Key Takeaways
  • Simplify your system: Combine all your freebies into one organized resource library.

  • Make it on-brand: Give your library a name and personality that fits your niche.

  • Focus on clarity: People are more likely to sign up when they understand what they're getting.

  • Reduce overwhelm: One link, one signup, endless value.

  • Keep building: A simple, evergreen opt-in can grow your list for years.
