How I Grew My Newsletter to 91,892 Subscribers (Without Paid Ads)

“CD” welcome is great! Thank u!

Can you help to find some niches for newsletter?

SMS has a 98% open rate which smokes email at 40%. The issue I see here is you're only collecting emails and not phone numbers. A link inside of a short descriptive text message with a 98% open rate can drive all that traffic to your own website instead of a buried email or worse a spam folder. This can all be easily accomplished.

Just after 2 mins he starts revealing the no-cost ways he got his email out to the masses, which took up the rest of the video. Not sure why so many thought it was click-bait.

Nice

Yapping all over the place, wasted 13 minutes of my life

The title didn’t match the video

Nice one bro 👍👍👍

Wonderful video, thanks for the tips!

Great tips, thanks Brian!

I thought we could not longer see the true open rate of our emails because of apple's privacy policy marking all emails as open (whether they are opened or not)? Our open rate went from 30% to 50% plus after that change and we thought it was awesome until we realized what was potentially actually happening.

Brian, thank you for the video, but this is not the type of content that has earned you so much trust and respect in the past. The video does not offer what the title promises.

You said “how i grew my newsletter” but really it’s “how a newsletter works” I thought by the title this was going to be more of a email generator or lead generator tool

You literally covered everything except the 'HOW' SMH waste of time. Skip this video people he does not cover how he grew the list without ads.

Don't waste 12min, he said nothing

✅

Is anyone else irritated that he looks around so much time

Excellent video. Great insights. Thank you!

My newsletter has 8500 subscriber but the open rate is lower than avarage, how to increase it?

and not a single tip or tactic on how to "Grow" your subscriber (as in grow your subscriber count) like the video title promises 🤣

I have a 75%-%100 open rate but not much traffic or conversions, I’ll try to make it less information even though is becoming about more complex topics about peak performance and also getting into flow states and neuroscience.

This is what you do AFTER growing it. But, how did you actually grow it "without paid ads"?

Love you Brian, but come on.

🤩

The content was good but the title was misleading. They didn't talk about how they grew it without ads. They talk about how they fulfill and retain with great content. There is nothing about how they got people to the newsletter.

Yes I'm building a newsletter it's called Mark III.
I talk about technology, artificial intelligence, psychology and Tips for Alpha Males.

Thanks for the Video.

Does anyone here feel that there is a significant UX issue with the way we consume newsletters?

- I don't get much context from the subject line about what to expect from a newsletter edition.
- Managing emails becomes overwhelming - the volume and clutter make it hard to navigate and avoid constant notifications throughout the day.
- The consistency of reading all newsletter editions - maybe this one is just me.
- Most newsletters have a peak for their best content, then they go downhill. But we still have those newsletters coming in our inbox - because of their weird unsubscription process.

Can you teache me ?

Great stuff, thanks! Keep up the hard work :)

very very very very helpful!

What is the best platform for newsletter ...

This video sucked, not one word on how to grow a newsletter without paid ads. Zero value, what a complete waste of my time. Clickbait garbage.

Hi which platform is best for creating a newsletter

Nobody talks about paid newsletters anyhow to implement it

Hey Brian

how to track if email open was from primary or promotion? In your case 35% vs 50%

Does google tell you when someone moves your email to primary?

That’s the most useful tips on email marketing I have seen !

What did you do you actually to grow the list? I dont know how to say this but you rambled on alot without actually really proving the answer

So you're saying the secret isn't sending chain emails that promise bad luck if not forwarded? 😂 Kudos on the organic growth!

great value on newsletters, thank you

I would love to see your process for creating your newsletter and confirmation letter, etc.

Thank you for making my life easier!!!

Great video thanks!

I never click on paid google ads

Best marketing guru out there - no doubt! Killing it!

I need to grow one so bad. I'm slacking I know. This was very easy to watch and made creating a newsletter simple. I think us marketers think to much into this.

That “CD” welcome email tip is gold 👍👍 Thanks Mr Brian.
