Bath & Body Works is Trending
This morning I noticed that my old stand by Bath & Body Works was trending on Twitter. For those of you who aren’t familiar with this store it sells fragranced body products and some home scented items including candles.
I love this store.
For those of us without allergies to scents and a love of lotions, bath scrubs and candles…Bath & Body Works is likely frequently on our shopping rotation.
When there is a sale.
The genius of many retailers who are navigating having bricks and mortar businesses and the demand for online shopping is that they have been growing lists for years now.
Apps-If you’re adding your email to an app…that’s a list.
Email list-there’s a regular email list that’s built up using a service like Flodesk, ConvertKit or Mailerlite.
Newsletters-Ikea is the first one that comes to mind at this time of year. Remember when you would get that cute book in the mail from Ikea?
Why am I bringing this up? Building lists is the #1 activity that you should be focused on for your business.
Why You Need a List
You will always have people to serve within your brand and business.
You can run surveys and get immediate direct community feedback.
You can hear immediately back from the people that you serve.
