Getting High Open Rates in Newsletters and Growing a Blog to 1,000 Subscribers in 3 Months with James Clear

by Srinivas Rao

James and I connected because he emailed me a while back to contribute to a series he was putting together for his blog about freelancing. A few weeks back, I saw him put out a tweet about how he grew his blog to over 1,000 subscribers in 3 months – so I knew he would have some fantastic insights. Here are some highlights:

  • How James Applied Principles from His MBA to His Blog
  • Setting Up Your Web Design So that It is Optimized for Conversion
  • Putting Together a Truly Valuable Giveaway for Your Newsletter Subscribers
  • How James Gets Insanely High Open Rates on His Newletters
  • How to Leverage Desire as a Way to Create a Really Great Site
  • Using Email to Powerfully and Effectively Build Relationships

Conni I get some really amusing emails about this every few weeks. and they are always followed by "really enjoying your podcast." These are the joys of trying to run a show from a developing country.
