301: The Million Dollar Email List (2026 Blueprint)

I have over a million email subscribers, and they've generated tens of millions in revenue for my business. In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly how I built my list from scratch, and how you can do the same. ✨ WE'LL TALK ABOUT... Why your email list is the one asset your business actually owns, and why that changes everything. The three simple steps to start building your list today. How to create a freebie that gets people excited to hand over their email address. Why I ran ads before I even had anything to sell — and started with just $5 a day. How to use organic content to weave your freebie across the internet without feeling pushy or repetitive. The Facebook Ad Library hack for finding exactly what's working for others in your space. Why your organic subscribers are often your warmest leads, and how to keep growing both. I also share the things I wish someone had told me sooner. It took me two years to create my first freebie. Two years. And one simple PDF later, 6,000 people subscribed to it. You don't need a complicated funnel. You don't need a huge budget. You just need to get started, because once you know how to get your first subscriber, you'll figure out how to get your first thousand. And one day you'll look back at a list of tens of thousands of people and wonder why you ever waited. Your email list might just be the best business decision you ever make.  Carrie xx
