Never underestimate the power of having your own money-cranking email mailing list. It’s like owning a growing money tree when you do it right! Think about it – when you have list that’s growing daily, your subscriber base is increasing everyday, increasing your potential for creating profits.
When you have a list, it’s also a great leverage tool in joint venture negotiations. Simply put, with a list, you will be able to procure more joint venture deals and make more money.
Here are the secrets of creating an infinitely growing “money tree”:
1. Concentrate On Targeted Traffic Generation
Concentrate on driving only targeted traffic (think article marketing! Think AdWords!) to your opt-in pages and sales pages to build a targeted, responsive list. Avoid buying packaged leads, or using any other traffic generation method that doesn’t drive targeted traffic to your opt-in pages.
2. Build A Relationship With Your List
Generating targeted visitors is not the only key to building a responsive list. You must build a relationship with your subscribers. Treat them by sending them quality free gifts and free information that they can apply to help them to improve whatever is they want to improve.
3. Send Powerful, Relevant Offers
The quality of offer is very important in email promotions. Even if you have a responsive list, you won’t make many sales if your email is not powerful, and more importantly, your offer is not unique or benefit-rich.
4. Do Cross-Promotions With Other List Marketers
When you have a list of a few hundred or a few thousand subscribers, do cross-promotions with other marketers to grow your list. Promote their opt-in page to your list, and they do the same by promoting your opt-in page to their list. It’s a win-win situation!
