1. Your invite to subscribe banner…

I said I’d open a chat thread so we could share our ‘scroll stopping’ invite line and ask for feedback.

I’ll personally feed back to you here in the comments if you add yours by Monday and you are welcome to jump into each other’s threads too and support too.

So to your ‘line’…

It needs to be connected to your essence, your why and ‘about’ your subscriber… an extension of you/ what you offer…

2. Once they are subscribed…

Let’s get personal…

To take this welcome further, the step I feel we should take personally when someone subscribes is to acknowledge their energy.

For me, this is energetic if it’s a free subscriber but to at least acknowledge their name in your subscriber dashboard and definitely drop them a dm if they pay. Perhaps you are just starting here and you feel you have time to reach out? What would you say? Think of it as sparking up conversation at your favourite coffee shop… keep it light and simple, BE of service. They already chose to give you their email address.
