Ty's Show Notes:

Intro:

We are going to be discussing push notifications, what OneSignal is, How we use it, and things to keep in mind before setting up push notifications.

OneSignal is a super useful FREE tool that:

Allows you to put site visitors on automated drip campaigns
Engage with potential customers through a new and effective medium.
Helps you increase site revisits

What are push notifications?

Push notifications are notifications sent to your phone or computer outside of an app or browser.

When you go to a site and it asks you if it can send notifications, that's push notifications.

What is OneSignal and what does it do?

OneSignal is one of the most popular push notification softwares.

Send push notifications via mobile and web
Collect subscribers from your website automatically
Send messages to them about promotions or updates
send automated or manual push notifications to site visitors' phones or computers.
Allows A/B Testing
Free up to 30k subscribers
Example: Our Site. If you go to our site and allow notifications and don't revisit for a certain number of days/week it will send different resources. We see about 5% site clicks. That's a lot of people that otherwise would have forgotten about us.
Another Example: We set up one signal for some clients. One is a content creator: Now when anyone goes to his site it asks if they will allow notifications. If they do, and they don't revisit within a week it will automatically send a notification prompting them to subscribe to his youtube channel.
