How to Attract Subscribers

Offer something in exchange for a signup, like a discount code, free shipping on the first order, or an exclusive design. These small incentives can make a big difference in conversion rates. Add signup forms to your homepage, product pages and checkout page. The easier it is to subscribe, the more likely visitors are to join.

Using Content to Grow Your List

Blog posts, seasonal lookbooks and behind-the-scenes updates about your designs can attract potential subscribers. Tie content into email opt-ins to capture traffic before it leaves your site. Social media teasers that direct followers to your email list can also help turn casual browsers into engaged subscribers.

What to Send Your Subscribers

Go beyond promotional emails. Share styling tips, seasonal product launches and updates on your brand’s journey. By mixing education and entertainment with offers, you keep subscribers engaged. Regular but not overwhelming communication builds trust and keeps your store top-of-mind when it’s time for customers to shop again.

Email Marketing Tools That Work with Printful

Platforms like Shopify Email, Klaviyo and Mailchimp integrate directly with Printful stores. These tools make it easy to automate welcome sequences, cart recovery emails and post-purchase follow-ups. Automation helps you keep in touch without having to write every email manually.
