The first way was on Merchantcircle.com. I created a list on businesses I connected with on there and put them into catagories. I orginally did this because once I connected with the buinesses, the disappeared off my page, but now they show them all that you are connected on a list. Then I started a list of women owned businesses. I had people requesting to be on this list daily, so I put on my page that if they request to connect, we automatically add them to our mailing list. Most of them were okay with staying on the list. The next way was working shows I we gave away free gifts if they signed up to be on our ezine. We ended up with over 1,000 emails in a year (is that allot?) I had been sending them out regular mail, but this week I am adding them to a our new email program. I haven't written a newsletter all summer while I was working on our new site. So lets see how many of those people opt in to stay on our list. Cathie I had two ways I built my list.
