How Do I Grow My Email List Without Being Pushy?
Wait until a visitor has shown some interest, offer something worth an email, and stop asking once they've said no.
- Pick a quieter Capture type. A Bar sits at the top or bottom of the page instead of covering it.
- On the Targeting tab, add a trigger such as Scrolled % Of Page or On Exit, so it only appears once someone has read part way down or is about to leave.
- Leave the two default exclude rules in place. They stop it showing again to anyone who's subscribed or closed it.
- Add Times Shown to cap how often anyone sees it.
- Offer something specific, like a discount code, free shipping or a useful download.
