How an Online Quiz Will Grow Your Email List and Your Small Business with Linda Sidhu
Personalized marketing is what is going to really boost your business growth and your revenue. One of the best ways to nurture relationships that bring about this type of growth is effective email marketing. One lesson all of us have learned by now is that you need to rely on more than social media because you don’t own those accounts and the platforms can go down at any time. But you own your email list! So it’s time to ditch the boring PDFs, guides and worksheets and start using quizzes! Quizzes are the low hanging fruit of marketing that is fun, engaging and intuitive. They help people feel seen and heard because you’re serving them better. But is it the right marketing tool for your business? How do you even create one? You’ll get the answers to those questions and more during this chat with Linda Sidhu, the quiz queen!
