The people on this list will be the ones who show up to support you early on, helping you set the pace for the rest of your campaign. If you\u2019ve already started building your crowdfunding email list \u2014 or just aren\u2019t sure how to get started \u2014 you\u2019ve probably realized that it isn\u2019t easy. This work takes time, persistence, and creativity, which is why you must approach the email list-building process in a strategic way.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you\u2019re developing your product and preparing your campaign, you should invest time in building a strong email list. The strength of your email list is a factor of the quality and quantity of subscribers. That means, when building a list, you need to go beyond just monitoring your subscriber count to find ways to assess their likelihood to convert to backers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To make the most of your efforts, you\u2019ll need to optimize and refine your strategy as you go. Here are a few ways to maximize your list-building activities so you can launch with confidence, knowing that you\u2019ll have a community ready to back your project on day one.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Building a high-quality crowdfunding email list<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not all leads are good leads. For a crowdfunding creator, a high-quality email list is simply a list of people who are likely to back your project. Here is how you can start a high-quality email list for your campaign: <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Make sure everyone knows what they signed up for.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0 You should always be transparent about what people can expect from you in exchange for sharing their information. If, for instance, you held a giveaway to collect leads, you\u2019ll need to make sure that people know that they\u2019re signing up to get updates on your crowdfunding campaign. You also need to consider whether your giveaway might motivate people to sign up just for a chance to win a prize.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Keep your subscribers engaged once they\u2019re signed up.<\/strong> Communicate with your subscribers on a regular candence, and pay attention to how they engage with your emails. High-engagement levels are often a signal that your subscribers have a high level of interest in your project. The most common types of engagements are email opens and clickthroughs (though you can create various ways for subscribers to engage with you beyond the email).<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Don&#8217;t buy email lists.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Sending unsolicited messages to people who didn&#8217;t opt into receiving your emails can be illegal, according to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/gdpr-info.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GDPR<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ftc.gov\/business-guidance\/resources\/can-spam-act-compliance-guide-business\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CAN-SPAM Act<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Legal ramifications aside, the leads on a purchased list don&#8217;t know who you are, don&#8217;t know about your project, may not know anything about crowdfunding, and are extremely unlikely to help you get funded for all of these reasons. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/blog\/kickstarter-email\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Around 1% to 5%<\/a> of subscribers on a high-quality list will back a crowdfunding project. In comparison, low-quality lists often get conversion rates that are close to 0%. When looking at the size of your list, keep this in mind to get a rough idea of whether your list is large enough to support your campaign.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Assessing the quality of your email list<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lead qualification is the process of determining which of the people on your email list are most likely to back your project. We\u2019ve found that people who have crowdfunding experience, meaning they\u2019ve backed projects in the past, are more likely to pledge to campaigns than others. Our powerful email marketing tool, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/admins\/sign_up?utm_source=backerkit_wordpress&amp;utm_medium=backerkit_blog&amp;utm_campaign=backerkit_blog_040422\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BackerKit Launch<\/a>, can help you assess the quality of your list by identifying what percentage of your subscribers have crowdfunding experience. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 2px 2px 2px 2px; color: #555555; background-color: ##ffffff; border: #ffd508 2px solid;\"><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-22062\" src=\"https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/crowdfunding-email-list-launch-experience-1024x400.png\" alt=\"crowdfunding email list\" width=\"1024\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/crowdfunding-email-list-launch-experience-1024x400.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/crowdfunding-email-list-launch-experience-300x117.png 300w, https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/crowdfunding-email-list-launch-experience-768x300.png 768w, https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/crowdfunding-email-list-launch-experience.png 1116w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can use Launch to see how many of your leads have crowdfunding experience.

By doing so, your landing page will be shared with a large audience of crowdfunding enthusiasts.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Optimizing your email list-building strategy<\/h2>\n<p>Building a strong email list takes time. Experimenting with different approaches and analyzing your results is essential to improve the impact of your efforts. Here is a good place to start: when people start signing up for your email list, take a look at where they\u2019re coming from by analyzing the referral sources and ask yourself:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where am I getting the most sign-ups from?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where am I getting the fewest sign-ups from?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are my conversion rates? (That is, the number of people visiting your landing page from a single source vs. the number of people who actually end up signing up.)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;ve created a landing page in Launch, you&#8217;ll be able to see all of this information in one convenient place. All you have to do is go to the &#8220;Landing Pages&#8221; dashboard and select &#8220;View Results.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 2px 2px 2px 2px; color: #555555; background-color: ##ffffff; border: #ffd508 2px solid;\"><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-22060\" src=\"https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/crowdfunding-email-list-view-results-1024x984.png\" alt=\"crowdfunding email list\" width=\"1024\" height=\"984\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/crowdfunding-email-list-view-results-1024x984.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/crowdfunding-email-list-view-results-300x288.png 300w, https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/crowdfunding-email-list-view-results-768x738.png 768w, https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/crowdfunding-email-list-view-results.png 1138w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/b><\/p>\n<p>This information will tell you what\u2019s working and what isn\u2019t (or what\u2019s not working as well as you may have hoped), but it\u2019s also going to tell you where to focus your attention. You\u2019ll have a lot to juggle as you\u2019re preparing for your campaign\u2019s launch, so you don\u2019t want to spread yourself too thin and you shouldn\u2019t waste time on something that isn\u2019t working.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The results you see on our dashboard \u2014 also referred to as performance metrics \u2014 tell you <em>what<\/em> is happening.

Use what you find out to refine your presentation. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding: 20px 20px 20px 20px; color: #555555; background-color: ##ffffff; border: #ffd508 4px solid;\"><b>Quick Tip:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Watch this <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.crowdcast.io\/e\/BackerKit-launch-2022\/register?utm_source=backerkit_wordpress&amp;utm_medium=backerkit_blog&amp;utm_campaign=backerkit_blog_040422\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BackerKit Launch walkthrough<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to learn more about how the platform can help you build your email list, activate your audience, and get funded early.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Growing a list after crowdfunding success<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Email list-building never ends for a crowdfunding creator. If you&#8217;re a creator who has run a successful campaign and you\u2019re planning to launch a new project, you will have to go out and grow your email list. This is especially true if you&#8217;re hoping to raise more money than you did previously.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you start sharing your new landing page, pay attention to how many of the leads have backed your campaigns in the past. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.backerkit.com\/launch?utm_source=backerkit_wordpress&amp;utm_medium=backerkit_blog&amp;utm_campaign=backerkit_blog_040422\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BackerKit Launch<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is the only email platform that allows you to do this easily.

If you want to grow your existing community and increase your funding goal, you&#8217;ll need to reach people who aren&#8217;t already in your community. Keep an eye on this number to make sure that you&#8217;re on the right track.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To build the best email list for your crowdfunding project, you have to be deliberate.
