Bonjour and welcome to the MLM Trigger, I am your host Corine Arnaud and this PODCAST is to help you LEVERAGE Your Network Marketing Skills using the internet to grow your MLM downline.

We are going to dive into [How To Acquire Leads Using Email] and about email lead generation — what is it — and why you need to apply it for your business.

A sales funnel is a marketing system with the ideal steps needed to sell your products or services. A lead either goes on to the next stage of the funnel because they want to know more about your product, or they leave because they’ve lost interest. 

It is called a funnel because the lead is moved through a series of marketing channels to build awareness, trust and engagement that closes the gap between being a prospect and becoming a customer. 

Email lead generation is the process by which marketers collect email leads for their marketing efforts. At a minimum, quality email lead generation includes capturing first name, last name, and email address. It is the first step in setting up a successful email marketing strategy. Before you start writing content or creating subject lines, you need to generate leads. 

To get the most out of your email opt-in strategy, you want to target the right customers. With any lead generation campaign, you first need to determine WHO your customers are so you can tailor your marketing efforts to their needs. Email marketing can generate leads and nurture relationships with potential customers by sending them content that will eventually convert them into paying customers. 

It’s also a cost-effective and highly efficient way to engage your audience and move them down the purchase journey by giving relevant information and offers.

Even with all of the other marketing channels available, email engagement isn’t showing signs of slowing down anytime soon. In fact, 80% of marketers have seen an increase in email engagement over the last year.

So why do you need to apply it for your MLM business? 

Because when it’s done right, email marketing can help your business: 

Grow brand awareness and trust

Build relationships with potential customers

Provide value and education to prospects

Convert prospects into loyal customers 

Target your ideal customer and get them to opt into your email list by creating valuable content. Meaning you first need to define what a lead is for your MLM business. 

Is a lead someone who fills out a form on your website? Someone who downloads your ebook? Or maybe someone who attends a company MLM webinar? 

That said, email lead generation is more than just gathering your potential customers information. Nurturing the leads is also part of the process since the ultimate goal of acquiring these leads is to turn them into loyal customers.

In order to encourage prospects to share their contact information with you, you need to offer something valuable in return. Consider what your potential customers are looking for when they first land on your site. What are their pain points? What do they want to learn more about? 

After you determine what your audience wants to know, put this information into a valuable piece of content that prospects receive once they opt-in to your email list. It can be an E-books or guide, checklist, downloadable resources or a course etc… Experiment with different opt-in to see what captures the most leads and refine your offering from there.
