FAQs

FAQs for Email List Building with Hello Bar—find key insights on using it to grow your email list, from setup to optimization, with answers to common questions.

Don’t Most Email Providers Have Email Capture Units?

Yes, over the last few years most email providers have added popups to their platforms. And, while these popups drive okay results, our customers come to us because they need better than average results. You see online forms and popups is all we do and we have gotten very good at it. Email providers do a bunch of different things so their email capture units lack the features and options necessary for you to get above average results. We regularly have customers leave Hello Bar to try the email capture units built in to their email system and most of them come back within a few days or weeks because the results speak for themselves.

How expensive is Hello Bar?

We have a variety of different plans that are designed to scale with you as you grow. And, we enable all of our customers to test Hello Bar out for free. We also have worked hard to keep our prices lower than many of our competitors and believe it’s important to be transparent in our pricing (unlike many of our competitors). And, one of the great things about Hello Bar is the massive ROI that we drive for our customers. With email still being one of the most effective marketing channels, using Hello Bar to build up an email list is about the price of a few clicks you can buy from a search engine.

What are some important things to do in using Hello Bar for email list building?

Like any tool, the more you put into Hello Bar the more you will get out of it. Setting Hello Bar up is simple, quick and easy. And, you should be able to build a nice emai list if you just put a Hello Bar unit or two on your site.

However, if you really want to skyrocket your email list, we suggest: 1) Testing multiple email capture units across different pages of your site; 2) Using the built in A/B testing to test different email capture unit designs and copy; 3) Setting up targeting within the platform and then segmenting your email lists so you can send different emails based on what your email subscribers are most interested in; 4) Providing value as part of your email list building efforts. For example, offer discounts, insider tips, educational content or other things that help your audiences to be successful; 5) Put tracking in place to test how your Hello Bars are performing in building your email list. Then, be sure to track activity from the emails you send so that you know the value of your email marketing efforts; 6) Build Hello Bar into your email marketing workflows using our many integrations; 7) Determine how much email subscriber is worth in terms of monthly revenue and then optimize this value.

Once you know this value, you can then also start conducting email list building campaigns with the specific goal of just building up your email lists. There are plenty more things you can do to elevate your conversion game even further with Hello Bar but the above is a good start.
