How do I build an email list from BeatStars traffic?

Your email list is one of the most powerful tools for growing long-term success. Unlike social media, email is direct, personal, and owned by you. With BeatStars traffic, you have multiple ways to capture emails and build a loyal fanbase of artists.


 Why Email Lists Matter

  • You own the contact—not an algorithm
  • Lets you announce sales, new beats, exclusives directly
  • Converts browsers into repeat customers
  • Allows deeper relationship-building over time


 Step-by-Step: Building Your Email List


 1. Offer a Free Download for Email

  • On BeatStars, enable the “Free Download with Email” feature
  • Choose 1–3 beats to give away
  • Make it clear the download is in exchange for joining your list

 Pro Tip: Tag the beat clearly (e.g., “FREE Download – Just Drop Your Email!”)


 2. Use a Landing Page or Smart Link

  • Use tools like:
    • Koji
    • Mailchimp
    • ConvertKit
    • Linktree Pro
  • Direct BeatStars visitors there via your bio, store banner, or pinned post
  • Keep the form simple: just email (and optionally name)


 3. Add Email Capture to Content

  • Add links to your freebie or email sign-up in:
    • YouTube video descriptions
    • Instagram bios and stories
    • TikTok captions
    • Your BeatStars profile bio


 4. Choose an Email Platform

Use a service to manage subscribers and send emails:

  • Mailchimp (easy, free up to 500 contacts)
  • ConvertKit (great for creators)
  • Brevo or MailerLite (simple automation)


 What to Send to Your List

  • New beat alerts
  • Discounts or coupon codes
  • Behind-the-scenes content
  • Placement announcements or testimonials
  • Exclusive freebies or unreleased packs

 Email builds trust and encourages repeat buyers.


 Final Tip:

Start small. Even a list of 100 targeted, loyal artists is better than 10,000 random followers. Capture emails at every opportunity—and nurture your list with value, not just sales.
