You're listening to the My Wife Quitter Job Podcast,

the place where I bring on successful bootstrap business owners

and delve deeply into what strategies are working

and what strategies are not with their businesses.

I'm Steve Chu, and today we are doing another solo episode where I'm going to discuss six simple ways to grow your business by selling to your existing customers.

But before we begin, I want to give a quick shout out to Privy, who is a sponsor of the show. Now I'm super excited to talk about

Privy because I use and rely on Privy to build my email list for both my blog

and my online store. Now what does Privy do? Privy is an email list growth

platform and they manage all of my email capture forms and in fact I use Privy hand

in hand with my email marketing provider. Now there's a bunch of companies out there that will manage your email capture forms, but I like

Privy because they specialize in e-commerce stores.

Now Privy is easily the most powerful platform that I've ever used and you can trigger sign up forms based on

any parameter that you desire.

So for example, let's say you offer free shipping for orders over a hundred bucks.

Well you can tell privy to flash a pop-up when the customer has $90 in their shopping cart to urge them to insert one more item into their cart.

Here's another cool use case. If someone has item A in their shopping cart, I can easily tell Privy to display a unique and special coupon code for that

item or display a related item or offer.

Now in terms of email capture, right now I'm showing a different email lead magnet depending

on what product a customer is

browsing in our shop. So bottom line privy allows me to turn visitors into

email subscribers which I then feed to my email provider to close the sale. So head

on over to privy.com that's PRI vY.com
