Building a list is a very important process if you want to make serious money online. No matter you are selling your own products or you are promoting an affiliate product, you need to have your own list. Once you your own list, you can promote, build relationship and profits from it. Having your own list means that you are actually dominating that particular niche market which you are targeting.
You finally realize that you need a good opt-in list. After reading countless articles and sought expert advice and have read many success stories of people creating a small fortune with opt-in lists you finally decide to have one of your own. Then it happens, you thought that you knew everything about list and your subscribers, but then you are still not making any money from your list. Why is this so?
Here I will offer more advice, for those who have started an opt-in list and have failed; you can rejuvenate your failed venture. For those who are starting, here are three quick and easy ways to build a profitable opt-in list.
1. Build Your Relationship and Trust First
Just launching your opt-in list would not make you an expert and a believable seller. Before you even start promoting anything to your list, you have to prepare with some pre-sell articles first, this is to educate your subscribers. Write about the topic you know and have started and used for your site. The certain truth is, the money will only come in when the consumers and subscribers believe and trust in you. They want a product or service that could be a good exchange for their money.
People are not going to buy something out of your recommendation if they don’t know you. Think about it, if you want to purchase a mobile phone today, will you look for information about the model which you are going to purchase? Of course and it is the same in internet marketing. If you are going to buy something online, you definitely will prefer to buy from someone who is trustworthy and close to you, you don’t want to get cheated aren’t you.
2. Find a Product or Service That People Want and Need
If you provide a service and product that you have researched and learned about well, you can carry it on forward. Invest your time, effort and money that you could sell as well as the buyers or subscribers of your opt-in list can use.
It is true that it will be the best to sell something that you have interested in; however, there are not many people who have the same interest as you if you decide to sell something that is not popular or profitable. You have to do your research well and you will see profits start flowing in. Also provide your subscribers with promotional material that they could actually use and spread around.
3. Make Friends With Your Subscribers
This is basically beneficial especially if it is someone who has already launched a successful opt-in list. These are the people that have the experience in this venture, and experience is still the best teacher. While there are many articles available for you in the internet to use, there is nothing like getting a first hand account from someone you trust.
This is what most people are facing, they know how to build their list, but they don’t know what to do with their list. There are many gurus out there who teach you how to build your list, but they never actually tell you what to do with it. Common sense, you have to build trust and relationship with your subscribers. The relationship between you and your subscribers are utmost important in order to make money from your list.
Building a profitable opt-in list don’t just happen overnight. There are many preparations and effort to do. Opt-in lists are built from scratch, as your list grows, you should also maintain the quality of your list. Keep it organized and manageable. Get or hire help if need to, just make sure that your subscribers are happy and satisfied and they will be willing to buy from you.
