Take the next step in your creator journey.

It all starts with creating. Whether you’re a musician creating a new beat, a coach setting up a monthly program, or a blogger writing a new article, every creator starts with making some type of content.

You’re sharing each content piece you create on social media platforms that give you the reach you need to distribute your content for free. You start to generate attention, gain new followers, and learn who your audience is.

Then come the growing pains. How do you segment your followers on Instagram? How do you target YouTube subscribers with paid products? How can you make what you have profitable?

The answer? It’s time to own your audience by building an email list.

Take the challenge

The ConvertKit Challenge helped me stop overthinking and start creating. ConvertKit made it easy to get everything up and running, and the challenge provided extra motivation and support. I was excited to be one of the winners, but even more excited that people could finally download my worksheet!

Turn your casual followers into trusted subscribers

Relationships with your audience are no different than the ones you have with your friends. When you meet someone new, you connect over common interests. Over time and repeated interactions, you start to trust them. Then, something magical happens: exchanging contact information.

It’s no different when it comes to your creator business! Getting permission to contact your audience directly is a big step. When you move your audience from unreliable, algorithm-driven social media platforms to your very own email list, you can build a relationship by consistently delivering valuable content and helping them find solutions that only you can provide.

With an email list on ConvertKit, you can:

  • Segment your audience based on interest
  • Personalize content to send to different segments
  • Schedule content for them to receive
  • Set a particular order to receive content in
  • Give them early access (or discounts!) to new products you have

Ready to start growing your audience?

Whether you are a creator looking to start owning your audience or a seasoned creator wanting a little extra motivation to double down on the momentum, this is the perfect opportunity for you.
