List Building Basics
What is a list?
When you build a list of names and email addresses of people who voluntarily give you their personal information you have built a list.
Why build a list?
If you build your list properly, you have have names and addresses of people who are interested in buying from you. You can market your products to this list and make sales.
How do you build a list?
The first step is to get an autoresponder such as AWeber. I strongly recommend that you get an autoresponder that is only an autoresponder like AWeber. Many of the free autoresponders work but will not back you up when you are accused of spam. AWeber will.
Second you need to decide on the goal of the list. What do you want to accomplish with this list?
Third you need to decide how you are going to convince your readers to sign up for your list. Many marketers give away or sell for a very low price some product that is appropriate for the goals of the list. If you list buys something from you to join the list, they are more apt to buy more from you.
Forth you need to set up your list in AWeber. That includes followup emails.
Once that is finished you can add the sign up form to you site.
Now all you need to do is market your list so people can find it and sign up.
Take action and Get Found Online.
Until the next time,
