Why Have a Mailing List?

For an example of a mailing list look at …http://www.easyprofitauctions.com 00007.jpgA mailing list is the backbone to any successful business online,

 

How it works is that someone lands on your squeeze page, and if they like the look of what you are offering they will give you their name and email address

 

Once they have done this, they will have opted into joined your mailing list.

You now have the right to send them emails. So every time you write an email from now on, it will look like you are writing it to just one person, but it will infact go out to everyone on your list, which, like in Alex’s case is tens of thousands of people.

This is not spamming, because people have chosen to receive your emails regarding a certain topic when they opted into your mailing list.

Building a mailing list is not just a one off task, it is continuous. Setting up the system will only have to be done once, but growing that list and building a relationship with that list is an ongoing thing and where the money is so you will want to nurture it continually,

Earlier, you saw that Alex’s first big pay day came in June 2007, with a list of only 2,500 people. You have to know that Alex started at zero; he had to learn how to build this responsive list.

The fact is we all start at zero.

 

Then our lists grow 1 by 1

So its 0 – 1 – 2 – 3- 4 etc … and its no cheating … but each and every number is a person you can build a relationship with and these people will pay you money When you recommend products to them as an affiliate.

Alex didn’t know anything at the beginning, but he learnt and is making the task easier for anyone who wants to learn how to build a list by showing them how, because that is the kind of dude he is!

First you need to focus on building the system,

Then you need to focus on the list building part and then this is the most important part, you need to focus on building those relationships with the people on the list as that is where the money is. People need to trust you first.

When your list is in the 1000s, you will start to have leverage and make money. People will start contacting you to promote their product to your list,

You see that’s what happened to Alex and that’s what will happen to you. So if you would like to make a couple of hundred dollars a day on a regular basis, then having your very own mailing list is the answer.
