Growing your email list can become a valuable asset, especially if you make sales online. An important factor in the success of your online sales is continuing to grow your email community.

Instead of relying solely on social media to accomplish that goal, consider hosting virtual summits to not just grow your email list, but to attract your ideal clients!
