List Building
If you want to get different results you have to think differently. Learn how right here.
"How Being Creative Can Build Your List 1000 Times Faster"
It's been said that one list member is worth $1 per month.
So if you have 5000 members on your list you can in theory
make $5,000 a month.
The problem is it can take months to a year to build up
a list that big. If you get 13.7 subscribers a day you'll
have 5,000 people on your list at the end of a year.
What do most people do to build their list? The general
teaching is to put your list subscribe form on every
page of your site and even in a popup. Still, you have
to get a lot of visitors to your website.
You can build your list the slow "garden hose way" or build
it the "fire hydrant way". With the latter, you get members
in chunks of hunreds or thousands instead of 15 or 50.
You can build your list much faster with joint ventures.
When doing joint ventures, your goal is to grab list
members from your joint venture partners.
If you contact 10 people with lists of 10,000 and you
grab 10% from each list, you have 10,000 new members
on your list. Sounds almost too easy doesn't it?
It can be easy if people do it right. Most people don't
do it right now. What is the right way to do a joint
venture? Well first of all, you need to make your
offer stand out amongst the other offers. I don't have
a list of 10,000 people but I'm sure if I did I wouldn't
accept every joint venture proposed to me.
Those people who have lists of 10,000 probably built
it the long and hard way instead of the fast way, so they
really cherish their list. They won't offer just any
product to their list.
That's why you need to make your offer really enticing.
Make it something that you would drool over if someone else
offered it to you.
What makes list owners drool? How about the chance to profit
big time. You've got to give them something that will bring lots
of money. That's not enough though. Although some list owners
will promote anything out of greed, others will not. They need
to offer something that their list members will use and appreciate.
The product you create has to serve two purposes.
It has to make the owner lots of money and it has
to make the list members lots of money. Let's not
forget that it has to make you a lot of money. That's why
you're doing it in the first place right?
I will give you an example of a product that
will benefit yourself, your joint venture partners
and thier list members.
What you can offer is a an ebook that promotes high
paying two-tier affiliate programs. Offer a useful and informative
ebook that isn't just a link directory. Let people
rebrand the ebook with their affiliate links. They will
promote the ebook and you will earn commission because it's
two tiers.
Create a minisite that serves to capture email addresses
and allow anyone who downloads the ebook to use the minisite.
This way, your joint venture partners can rebrand the ebook, offer
it to their list and allow their list members to use the minisite
to pass along the ebook.
How you benefit is that all these people are signing up as your
subaffiliates. You earn commission as your ebook is passed around.
You not only steal the list members from you joint venture partner, if
you have an optin form in your ebook, you can get more list members because
your ebook is passed around.
Your joint venture partners are happy because they give something
valuable to their list and they can make money at the same time.
Triple win situation as I like to call it. All three parties receive
multiple benefits. This is smart marketing and you should use it
every time to minimize your workload and maximize your gains.
