- [2:00] Want to Go Deeper? Join Lindsay’s Email Marketing Course

- [2:58] Choose the Right Email Service Provider
Lindsay breaks down your options: Flodesk, Kajabi, and Kit (formerly ConvertKit). Flowdesk is her favorite for its ease of use, flat monthly pricing, and templates - perfect for TPT sellers just starting out.
- [4:53] Buy a Domain for Your Biz Email
You'll need a custom domain like yourstore.com to set up a professional email address. Lindsay recommends Bluehost for affordable domains and optional website hosting.

Lindsay explains how to design a valuable, exclusive freebie that directly relates to your TPT store and leads to paid products.

Create a sign-up form and a workflow (a.k.a. automation) so subscribers get your freebie instantly - and then keep hearing from you with nurturing emails that lead to more sales!
