It’s super important as a business owner to start building your email list as soon as possible after you’ve launched your business. Your website and email list are your best forms of marketing compared to social media. Because unlike social media you actually own and are in full control of your website and email list. Email lists also have a higher conversion rate than social media.
The good news is that it’s very easy to add your email marketing platform of choice to Showit. I have ConvertKit subscriber forms added to my website but this tutorial will be almost exactly the same for any email marketing system that you want to add to Showit like Flodesk.
