2. Make it Easy to Subscribe. Provide easy steps for subscription so that subscribers may find it simple to do so and would not be too cumbersome. For more subscribers, tell them the exact benefits they can get out of the subscription….and if you use an autoresponder service just tell your readers “Send a blank email to: marketinghuddle@aweber.com (of course you’ll want to set up your own, but I wanted to show you what it would look like). When the autoresponder service gets that blank email it automatically adds them to your list!
3. Quality Content. Be sure that what is written inside the newsletter, freebies and information found in your website are all of value to increase visitors dropping by your website….make sure to speak to their need….and when all else fails, ask your list what they need to learn!!
4. Forums. Discussion boards and forums are all over the net. Try to actively participate in these boards especially those in the line of your interest or your business. Try to build your reputation with credibility….and just a note, do not ever solicit for your business until you have given sufficient value to the board!
5. Write articles. This makes you an instant expert in your chosen field of interest. You just have to play on it and use it well in your business goal.
6. Co-registration. A very effective way to build a monster list in a very short time.. This is contacting someone else who’s target is the same as yours, but they sell a different product and ask them to do a joint venture mailing to their list!
7. Write an e-book. An excellent freebie for those who visited and subscribe in your mailing list. The e-book does not have to be expensively made or elaborate but it can be a compilation or a collection of best articles, business tips and resources….and make sure to have all your website/blog/email contact information at the beginning and end so it can be a sales letter
In building opt-in mailing lists always keep in mind to offer something of value to your prospects. Remember opt-in lists are the foundations of most profitable internet business so do not miss chances for improvement and developing new strategies.
