This is my biggest mistake starting my online business 4 years ago
Take this lesson from me
2021 me predicted I would be a millionaire by 2025. Well, it hasn’t happened yet, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to give up.
On the contrary, I’m taking the lessons I’ve learned along the way and moving forward.
And perhaps I can help you move your online business a bit faster than mine.
Though I’ve made plenty of mistakes, the biggest one I made was not building my email list right away.
At times, I started collecting emails and even sent newsletters for a while. But, they fizzled out as my interests and motivations changed.
As a multi-passionate individual with shiny object syndrome, this might be my Achilles heel.
I thought if I didn’t commit to sending at least weekly emails, then there was no point in having an email list.
WRONG.
Even if you’re not sure what you’re going to write or sell through the list, it’s important to begin building that list at the start of your business. It will inevitably change and grow and flow, but then it’s up to the subscribers to decide if they want to stay.
