I am not going to talk a lot about building a list because you can read hundreds and hundreds of pages about building a list and if you really think about it boils down to two things. Number one it boils down to traffic. Number two it boils down to getting their name and email address. The way that I do that is I create what is called a squeeze page. For more details go to www.craigs-list-profits.com A squeeze page is a page whose only function is the opting in of subscribers getting them to give you their name and email address that is it.
Most of my squeeze pages 99% of them there is no other link. You can not get anything else without giving me your name and email address. That is how I force the people that really want information from me to give me their name and email address. It is really a no risk situation because the system that I use if they don not want to be on the list anymore they just unsubscribe at the bottom and it is over. If they want to send me an email they can get off so it is really a no risk proposition for them. Don not make it any more difficult than this send traffic to a squeeze page. Send traffic to a squeeze page. There is no magic there is no voodoo there is nothing special about it. Just build a squeeze page send traffic to it and then you will have your list. The one other thing that you need is an auto responder. For can visit to www.mailing-list-gold.com you have got to have somewhere to build the list into. That certainly has nothing to do with the marketing end of it but you do need an auto responder.
The third thing that you need to do is you have to build a relationship with the list. You guys are on a number of lists some people send you emails every single day or once a week asking you to buy something from them. Other people build a relationship with you and if you are getting 100 emails a day from a number of different sources and I realize some of you get two emails a day and some of you like me & get 1000 emails a day. Lets just say you are somewhere in the middle and you get 100 emails a day. My guess is you only answer or open three or four of them and probably what happens is the three of four that you open are from people whom you trust.
