Make the next click an introduction

Give them a reason to leave their email.

A care guide after a salon visit. A party checklist from the bakery. Put a useful next step on your page and ask for an email before it opens. Make the exchange clear from the first click.

Little details. Useful possibilities.

Make more of
every connection.

Give each signup a reason

Offer a specific resource or perk so visitors know why they are being asked for their email.

Put the invitation where people already look

Add the email step to a selected button on the ShmoLink page you share in your bio, on the counter, or through your cards.

Be clear about what comes next

Tell visitors what the link opens. If you also want to send marketing updates, make that choice clear instead of treating every email entry as a subscription.

From idea to your page

A good next step
starts here.

  1. Choose something worth opening

    Pick a useful destination, such as a care guide, a checklist, or an offer for your customers.

  2. Add the email step

    Require an email before the selected button opens its link. Explain the exchange in plain words.

  3. Let the visitor choose

    They can enter their email to continue to the resource. Keep any invitation to future marketing clear and separate.

Picture it in your business

Made for real life.

Illustrative examples of ways to put Email opt-in buttons to work.

Salon

Help that new color look good at home.

A salon might offer a hair-care guide behind an email button. The button explains what the visitor gets before asking for their address.

Bakery

Be useful before they order the cake.

A bakery could share a party-planning checklist through an email-gated link, alongside the regular menu and cake inquiry links.

Good questions

Let’s clear
a few things up.

Need a hand with your page?
Say hello to our team.

Does every link need an email gate?

No. Use an email gate on a selected button and keep your everyday links open.

Does entering an email automatically mean subscribing to marketing?

No. Accessing a resource and asking for future marketing are different choices. Make the purpose of collecting an email clear to the visitor.

What should I offer behind the button?

Choose something relevant to your customers: a care guide, a planning checklist, a download, or an offer. Say what they will find before they enter their email.

Your business. Your little space.

connection count.
