Why Every Yoga Teacher Needs A Newsletter: A regular weekly newsletter is the best way to reach your students and stay connected with your community.<\/p>\n
There are so many reasons why you should be dedicating time and effort to getting your students on to your email list so that you can show up in their inbox on a regular basis. And remember, anyone that gives you their email address, wants to hear from you!<\/p>\n
How often should you send out your newsletter? Well, how often do you want your students to attend your classes? Once a week, maybe more? Then a regular weekly newsletter is the best way to reach students and keep them involved. But that\u2019s not the only reason why yoga teachers need a newsletter.<\/p>\n
You should aim to schedule your newsletter on the same day and time every week so that your students expect it and even look forward to receiving it!<\/p>\n
Once you know your deadline, you can start to work towards that date by collecting and creating your content on the days prior to sending.<\/p>\n
Mailchimp does a lot of the work in making sure that everything is formatted correctly for all devices (responsive) but you can also help by using images and buttons in your email and proofreading before you send to check all the links work and everything is displaying as it should.<\/p>\n
Using MailChimp for your weekly newsletter is a great choice as you can replicate the format and sending preferences \u2013 which is a huge time saver. All you will need to do weekly is just update the newsletter with the content for that week.<\/p>\n
If your teaching schedule changes, or you have a new class or you\u2019re doing a workshop, having an email list means you can keep your students in the loop.<\/p>\n
Research shows people on your email list are more likely to purchase from you \u2013 so the people who receive your emails and more likely to book your classes, events, workshops and retreats. And if you do email marketing well by focusing on your content and getting more people to open your emails, you\u2019ll get more people booking your classes, workshops and retreats. It really is a no brainer!<\/p>\n
People check their email multiple times a day so showing up in their inbox is going to keep you at the front of your student\u2019s minds and in an ever evolving and competitive yoga space, this can be the difference between booking your class or the class of another teacher.<\/p>\n
With social media\u2019s organic reach diminishing by the day, you can\u2019t rely on social media to keep your students updated, even if you have tons of followers, plus people get to know you on social media but they don\u2019t buy there.<\/p>\n
Emailing your students means you\u2019re not relying on them to have to seek you out, because there\u2019s a lot of competition out there so you need to make it super easy for your students to get your info. Email really is the easiest way to stay in touch.<\/p>\n
Students will give you their email addresses because they want to hear from you and work with you on a deeper level, so if you don\u2019t step up, they will miss out and so will you.
\nEven if you think you\u2019re not going to send a newsletter right now, it\u2019s better to start collecting your student\u2019s email addresses now so that you have an email list for when you are ready.<\/p>\n
You can use MailChimp to import email addresses manually and also to add opt-in forms to your website to collect email addresses of people visiting your website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
