You're listening to the My Wife Quitter Job podcast, the place where I bring on successful bootstrap business owners and dig deep into what strategies they use to grow their businesses.

Now once again, I do not have a guest with me on the show, so instead I'm doing a year-end review of all of my other

businesses associated with my wifequiter job.com which include my blog my

podcast my training course over at profitable online store my annual e-commerce conference at seller summit.com, my group

giveaway service at gobrandwin.com and my brand new show over at five minute pitch.com. But before

it begin I want to give a quick shout out to Privy who is a sponsor

the show. Privy is a tool that I used to build my email list for both my blog and my online store.

And right now I'm using Privy to display a cool wheel of fortune pop-up.

Basically a user gives their email for a chance to win valuable prizes in our store.

And customers love the gamification aspect of this.

And when it implemented this form, email signups increased by 131%. You can also use

privy to reduce cart abandonment with cart saver pop-ups and abandon cart email

sequences as well at one super low price that is much cheaper than using a full-blown email marketing solution.

So bottom line, Privy allows me to turn visitors into email subscribers and recover lost sales.

So head on over to privy.com slash Steve and try it for free.

And if you decide you need some of the more advanced features, use coupon code

Once again, that's PRI vY.com slash Steve. I also want to give you a quick shout out to Clavio, who is also a sponsor of the show.

Clavio is the tool that I use to build real quality custom relationships with my e-commerce store.

And because all my transactions and email correspondence is tracked in Clavio,

I can easily build meaningful customer relationships by listening,

understanding, and taking cues from my customers
