Advanced List Building Techniques

Hey guys, this is Robert Plank. Today, let’s talk about some advanced list building techniques. So you’ve got your autoresponder set up. Maybe you’ve got some follow-ups. You’ve got an opt-in form on a page; maybe it’s in the wrong kind of page; maybe you have it on a sales letter, in which case you should probably take it off. But there are ways to get it right. So if you have an opt-in form on a sales letter you might want to have it on as a squeeze page, so that you get somebody to opt-in for a bribe and then send them to the sales letter. And that way if you have the opt-in page on a separate page than the sales letter, then if you get an affiliate to send traffic your way you can just skip the squeeze page so that he is not working to build your list. Because affiliates hate that; affiliates want to build their own list and then send traffic to your sales letter; and if it makes a sale then they make money, but they don’t want to just send traffic blindly to your newsletter and expect it to pay off in the end.

So how do you build a list? How do you keep your subscribers on your list? And how do you keep coming up with new content? Well, my favorite way of coming up with new content is probably the simplest way possible. You have a newsletter with 7 tips. So you think of a common problem that people have in your niche, and if you can’t think of a problem you go around on forums and you ask your existing lists if they have a problem with something. And you describe 7 ways to tackle a certain problem. Now it might be a 7-step way to get past something or just 7 things that they can do that they can look at all 7 things. If they aren’t doing any of them they just pick one thing out of the 7 and then apply it.

Driving Traffic and Building Relationships for List Marketing Success

Driving Traffic to Build Your List

After you have your opt in form ready to go, and your freebie ready to give away, it’s time to think about driving traffic to build your list. Many people think that all they have to do is put the pages up and that others will magically find those pages.

Unfortunately, there is a lot of activity and noise on the Internet. You’re going to need to use some elbow grease to get people to see your opt-in form. Once they do, they should be excited to opt onto your list. But you have to pay attention to how to get traffic in the first place.

Many of the methods you’ll use to build your list are also part of what you did to start to build your brand. You’ll use social media, such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, LinkedIn, or whatever is most relevant to your niche. Social media is one of the best ways to network and get to know other marketers and the members of your niche.

All About Email Headlines and Topics

Hello, Jason Fladlien here from DailySeminar.com, and today’s topic is all about e-mail headlines and topics.

And you know what? E-mail marketing makes you so much money. If you got a list and you got some people that have bought some stuff from you and you keep up communication with it, that is the key to riches online.

A lot of it stems from the 80/20 rule. So what’s the 80/20 rule with e-mail marketing? It’s really the headline. It’s really the type of content that you send to your list and how you handle your list. Everything else is secondary. I know a lot of people know these fancy little sniper tactics that maybe boost response incrementally by 1 percent or 2 percent, but I’m not interested in incremental. I’m interested in exponential. And really if you just learn how to write good headlines and know what topics to say next to your list, you’re going to crush it.

Building a Responsive Email List From Scratch

Hello, Jason Fladlien here from DailySeminar.com, and today I’m going to discuss with you how to build a responsive e-mail list from scratch, the challenge of it.

The challenge of building a responsive e-mail list from scratch. I’m going to give you some ideas here that aren’t the most popular in our industry taught by the gurus, but have been extremely successful for me on starting from nothing and really building the list that you want, that’s not only going to be a list of numbers but a list of people who respond to your marketing communication.

So we’re going to discuss some things about quantity and quality, how to single out the best prospects who are most likely to respond and be the ideal prospects for you, how to set the tone of expectation, how to give them something they can’t get anywhere else, how to always push them to do a certain action after reading your marketing communication, and show them that there’s consequences for them not following your information and advice. That’s the two ways you do it — with positive and negative conditioning.
