QUOTES

“You don’t want an Email list that’s full of, I call them, freebie seekers, they only want the freebie, that’s what they’re there for, they probably, you know, maybe they’ll download the freebie, maybe not. After a couple of months, they forget who you are, those are terrible leads.” - Liz Wilcox [15:46]
“[When it comes to getting buyers] My framework is first you have a follower, then you have a friend and then you have a customer.” - Liz Wilcox [19:59]
“The biggest way to grow an Email list, and grow an Email list of people that are engaged, that actually like you, they're not freebie seekers, is to build a network of people that are doing the same thing as you.” - Liz Wilcox [34:51]
