This is not difficult and there are videos covering it, but I personally hate trying to follow videos so I put these slides together. There are actually a few different ways to add subscribers, first you need to create a group. If you haven’t already created a group, there are instructions for how to do that here.
There are four choices for importing contacts into Mailerlite, they are:
Import from a CSV or TXT file
Copy/paste from Excel
Add single subscriber
Import from Mailchimp
We are going to look at importing a CSV (or Excel) file.
Now you have to help the program understand where to put the information.
The data in this example is not needed so I would leave it at ‘Skip this column’ but normally what you need to do is tell the program whether it is a Name or a Last name.
You have imported your contacts into Mailerlite. Now you need to start sending them information, so my pro tip is to start a list somewhere that you keep ideas for content, things that you can send your mailing list. Not everything on your mailing list has to be ‘original’ content from your blog, you can share information from other sources, the most important thing is that the information is relevant and interesting to the people who are receiving your emails. You want them opening and reading your emails so that you can tell them about services that you offer or get them to book an appointment or a discovery call.
