Maximize the impact of your launches by using a Link in bio to tease your upcoming offers and segment subscribers instantly. Build anticipation with a product, service, or event waitlist your followers will scramble to join. 

Email waitlists help generate buzz and excitement while collecting valuable contact information from potential customers who want to be first in line to access your offering. And because they indicate purchase intent for specific offers, you can easily use them to send relevant, hyper-personalized emails that warm your waitlist subscribers for sales.

Many Flodesk members customize their Link in bio opt-in block to grow their waitlists for upcoming offers, like this example from Brooke Bakken & Co. Brooke says,”I wanted a page where I could easily capture email addresses for a waitlist while giving people the opportunity to get to know a little bit about me and the other products or services I offer.”

Pro tip: Turn your Link in bio into a demand-generating tool for your big ideas. Open a waitlist to gauge audience demand for an offer before you spend time, energy, and resources creating it.

Create a free resource—like a guide, checklist, or one of our top freebie ideas—that entices your audience to “join now” for instant access.
