Last Monday, I talked about the strategy that helps newbies (and seasoned!) marketers drive their actions in the right direction. That strategy is Email List Building.
If you missed the last email, your can still read it by clicking here.
In the "make money online" niche, your first goal is to collect 1,000 email subscribers. Luckily, it is not complicated. It's simple.
Today, I will share with you two critical things you need to reach that first important milestone and to build your responsive email list.
The two things you need to become an effective email list builder are:
1. A Compelling Offer or Lead Capture Page, and
2. Lots of High-Quality Traffic
These are both absolutely essential because one does not work without the other.
If you want people to subscribe to your list, you need to give them a compelling reason to actually do it. This is done on a lead capture webpage which usually offers something that they want in exchange for their email address. The "bribe" is called a Lead Magnet and may be a free report, ebook, video, prize, or other giveaway.
Of course, you can have a compelling offer that is very desirable, but if no one ever visits your lead capture page, then you will get no subscribers. You need to be able to drive lots of high quality traffic to that page.
In my next two emails, I will go more in-depth into the specifics of how to create a compelling offer and how to get lots of quality low-cost traffic.
As I said earlier the list building strategy is simple. Just send high-quality traffic to a compelling lead capture page and be consistent. Take action each day to add more people to your list. Your consistent action will make sure that the group of people you can connect with is bigger each week.
