“The money is in the list”
That being so I have started to build said list.I have bought some PLR products from the guru I am following.Cost was $97 for 12 products.They are well put together and relate to the make money on line niche.
I have used one to sell through Paypal and then added a free ebook via a pop-up webform.
So far no one has bought the main product but quite a few are grabbing the ebook which gets me their email address.
So now the list is starting to build.I have 16 people on the list as I write this.Not many I agree but it is a start.
The important thing to remember is not to use every email you send out as a product pitch.You will get substantial opt outs if you do that.
The process is build a list,build a relationship with that list and then market to that list.
It’s the middle bit most people leave out.They so want to pitch products and make money they forget about building a relationship.The reader will just think “this person does not care about what I want they just want to sell me stuff”.
So give REAL content and give it free.You can introduce affiliate products from time to time but ensure they tie in with what you blog or websites is about.
Have your emails 4 days apart which is the default setting on Aweber the autoresponder I use.
After about 7 emails spread any subsequent emails out to seven days apart.
Follow this strategy and your own list will grow.
Best wishes

You would think that with all these online lead generation techniques like social media,ezine articles, and blogs that signing people up is an automatic process.
It’s as if you never have to talk to people who join your business.They just sign and start recruiting their distributors themselves, and you laugh as your commission checks get bigger.
Well I am sorry to disappoint you, but it’s not that simple.
You still have to covert people from prospects to distributors.That means talking to them.
Does the thought of that fill you with fear?Are your hands getting sweaty just thinking about picking up the phone?
Well these is a way of overcoming those fears.It involves a mindshift from the way you think about your business.Instead of praying that someone will join your team,think of it as a job interview.
In this interview you are interviewer and the prospect is the interviewee.They have to convince you that they are good enough to join your team.
Think in this way and you will never have any fear when you pick up that phone.Remember it is your business not the business of your opportunity.If you had your own bricks and mortar business,would you recruit anyone who came knocking on your door looking for work?
To hear more about the techniques you must have to recruit in big numbers watch this free video of attraction marketing guru Mike Dillard in conversation with the man who recruited him into his primary business opportunity.
It’s a one hour video packed with great advice, and it’s free.
Have a great day
Andrew
