How Virtual Summits Can Grow Your Email List with Kelly Morrison If growing your email list feels harder than ever, this episode is for you. In this week's episode of Pinterest Coffee Chats, I'm joined by Kelly Morrison, virtual assistant, summit strategist, and host of the Product Seller Summit.

We dive into why virtual summits are making a comeback, how they can help you reach new audiences, and why they may be one of the most overlooked ways to grow your email list with qualified leads. Kelly shares her experience hosting her own summit, what she learned from adding over 1,200 new subscribers to her email list, and why email marketing continues to outperform social media for many business owners. Whether you're a coach, course creator, service provider, product seller, or podcast host, this conversation will help you think differently about visibility, audience growth, and creating long-term marketing assets that continue working long after the event is over.

In This Episode We Talk About:
☕️ Why Kelly decided to host her first virtual summit
☕️ What it actually takes to plan and execute a successful summit
☕️ How summits can help you grow your email list with ideal clients
☕️ Why email marketing continues to outperform social media for many businesses
☕️ The biggest mistakes business owners make when participating in summits
☕️ How to choose the right summit opportunities
☕️ Why keeping landing pages evergreen matters for long-term traffic
☕️ Ways to maximize summit content after the event ends
☕️ Different industries and niches successfully using virtual summits
☕️ What Kelly would do differently if she were starting again today

Key Takeaways:
-Virtual summits are not a quick fix.
-Like Pinterest, podcasting, blogging, and email marketing, summits require upfront work before you see results.
-The biggest value often isn't the event itself. It's the audience, relationships, and email subscribers you continue nurturing long after the summit ends.
-If you choose to participate in or host a summit, focus on attracting the right people rather than simply growing your list with more people. Quality leads will always outperform vanity metrics.
