Growing email list from YouTube growing channel

Hey all,

I've done relatively well growing my yt channel and I've started building an email list with Mailerlite. I'm about to hit 1,000 emails which isn't a ton but it's the threshhold where you'll have to start paying a monthly or yearly fee to use the service. I believe this is against most normal email marketing, but I don't plan to use the list at all until I'm ready to email them with an education phase and lead that into a course sale.

Long story short. I want to build my list to 5-10k before I start emailing them and I don't want to pay the fee to Mailerlite. What's the best alternative? All I'm using is a basic landing page to get the emails.

I'd recommend making your own mail database system, it's a relatively simple concept.

So just export the list, delete all the people on the list, then wait till its near 1000, export again onto my mail database, and repeat?
