There’s no doubt that somewhere along the way that we’ve heard someone say, “The money is in the list.” Am I right? And today might be the day when you have finally come to realize that you need an opt-in list. So you started your pursuit by reading articles, did a little online searching, and maybe you have even been reading posts on your favorite forum. But maybe you’re not brand new to list building, maybe you started 6 months ago, 12 months ago mayb even a few years ago and you are paying monthly for that online account, but you’re just not satisfied with the results that you’re getting from your opt-in list.

Today’s’ audio will address both of these. You can accept this fact as truth: people have made small fortunes with their opt-in lists. And finally today you are in a place, in your heart and mind, where you’re ready to dedicate some of your time, money and resources to growing your own opt-in list.

It might be said that your list is the most important marketing tool, and whether that’s true or not – if you don’t have one you are not achieving anywhere near your income potential. Let me reveal something to you. It’s been many years since I’ve been marketing online, over a decade in fact. But it took me over 9 of those years to come to the point that I hope you are at today. And by the 10th year I figured out what I was doing wrong.

About a month ago, I was speaking with another online marketer. And like me he had been marketing online for quite a few years. What really surprised me was that he revealed he had been marketing online for 7 years without his own opt-in list. Wow! Now I suppose that I drew some comfort in the fact that I wasn’t the only one in the crowd making the same mistake. But I was really encouraged when he cracked the whip. He was able to build up a list to over 7,000 subscribers in less than a year.

Now, while a large list of subscribers is important, the quality of that list is even more important. Your emails need to be opened, read and hopefully links are clicked on. The best way to achieve this result is to begin with that end goal in mind. You want your customers to trust you and your products, so begin by writing articles in your area of expertise. Post them not only in forums, but article directory sites. This is the beginning phase of building credibility, your online identity and your brand.

Always link back to your site, so the readers are able to see what your online business is all about, and what products you are offering. Even if you’re promoting other’s products, it’s truly hard for someone to trust and believe your recommendation if they haven’t first developed a relationship with you – that’s your goal and purpose.

The next thing is to keep a common theme in the material that you send to your list. For example, if you are building a list of pet owners there’s likely no point in mailing out an offer for a new weight loss product. Since it will just confuse your readers. Keep you e-courses, product offers and other material to a common thread or theme. Again, you are building rapport and credibility with your subscribers.
Third is to keep in touch with those on your list. In the past I built lists, and many months would go by between mailings. So, when I finally did launch a new product and sent a mailing to my list, it was ineffective. Why? They didn’t remember who I was. Now how often you should mail your list will vary. Personally, I think that daily is just a bit too frequent, But I also subscribe to lists that sender mails his subscribers, typically, twice daily.

The final point today is to make sure that when you build this list, you are using a reliable online service. The small monthly fee is very worthwhile, and you will be able to make that back in profits many times over

In conclusion, it is never too late to start focusing some of your resources on building your opt-in list. So why not start today?

If you have your very own E-product (purchase some good PLR products and re-work them), you can easily submit your product to a high-traffic membership site that provides quality content. The concept is also similar to blog and article contributors except that it takes it up a notch to E-book creation.

The nature of these content membership sites requires new content to be added in from time to time.

What better way to get your own product in front of the eyes of thousands of resellers and Internet marketers who can’t wait to sell YOUR product for their own profits (assuming that your product has resell rights to it of course). All members are your resellers!

If your E-product has master resell rights you can be sure that your products will spread all over the Internet in no time.

Resellers are always looking for solid, interesting products with a complete sales letter with all the graphics included to it. If you have drafted out a good sales letter that converts well, you can be sure that a lot of resellers will just ‘cut-and-paste’ your sales letter and your E-book and sell it to their mailing list.

The most important thing for you to remember is this – your books must constantly lead the readers to your websites. And remember, this might happen year after year!

Your links must be placed strategically in the E-books and as your E-books are duplicated all over the Internet, you can be sure to drive plenty of new visitors to your website – even if they are not in your circle of influence! Make sure that the WebPages you drive the visitors to are well designed to get an high conversion rate. Make sure that you maintain and update these pages, visitors might come and visit years after you first distributed your E-book!

First I want you to check that your site is ready to receive traffic.

Preparing your website is important. You want to make sure that things are neat and tidy. Make sure that your navigation follows a logical sequence. Make sure that you have plenty of good content, and that everything is spelled correctly.

You want your visitors to participate in your site – to take action. You have to prepare and determine what type of action your visitors should take.  Do you have a forum or blog? Do you conduct polls or surveys?

Do you have a subscribe box for your opt-in list on every page of your site? Make absolutely sure that your website is ready for company! Also make sure that your pages lead your visitors to take the action that you want them to take, no matter what that action may be.

That is the first and most essential step of traffic generation. If your site isn’t pleasing and welcoming, any traffic generation activities you do from this point on are wasted! Take the time, and put forth the effort to make your site as good as possible – and learn to look at it from your visitor’s point of view!
