Own Your Connections
Why I’d love to have you join our email list
I have thousands of social media connections, and many of them are people I interact with often. While I appreciate that, I’d be much happier if those folks would join my email list.
Here’s why: A while back, I made a Facebook post sharing some brief comments about a sermon I’d heard and a movie I watched. It was getting a lot of discussion, but Facebook took it down because they claimed I was trying to gather sensitive information from others (I wasn’t — my guess is it was Facebook’s AI gone awry).
I appealed, but got no response. The post and some wonderful discussions are gone forever.
That was one post. Facebook — and any other platform — can, without notice, take my accounts down, leaving me without a way to communicate with my connections.
And it could happen to you.
That’s why the best way to stay in touch with your audience is to own your connections by having them on your email list.
It’s also why I’d love to have you join our email community. Just click here to sign up.
I can hear you thinking: I get too many emails as it is. I don’t need to be on any more lists.
