How to Build Your Own EBusiness at the Touch of an Autoreponder Button
The simple fact of the matter is that in order to succeed online you will need a list.
It's just that simple.
So how do you get this all-mighty list?
You build it, buy it, or borrow it. Personally I strongly recommend building it, so I'll save that for last.
Buying Your List:
If you buy it from the wrong person you could get hit with charges of spamming that could shut down your business before you even get started, or create problems that will be very darned expensive to make go away.
If you buy it from the right person, you could hit the jackpot, or you could just as easily waste your money on a lot of unopened, unread emails emails.
The problem is that you will not know which one of the scenarios listed above will prove to be true until after you have spent your money.
So, if you decide to buy your list...do your research before you buy.
Borrowing Your List:
There are a variety of ways to borrow a list, and most of them are going to cost you either time or money.
If you have a “good quality or unique” product to sell, you can successfully borrow the lists of others by signing them up as affiliates and paying them a percentage and/or commission to promote your product to their list members. Again there is a danger of that they will spam people and annoy any of your potential customers, but that is a risk that comes with any online marketing campaign.
You also must be careful that your affiliate terms include the following conditions.
#1 No affiliate commissions will be paid out until after your Money Back Guarantee has expired.
#2 No affiliate commissions will be paid on refunded sales.
You will also need to locate willing and reputable affiliates. The difficulty of this will depend on what product you offer. There are any number of one-stop-shop affiliate facilitation sites online which will list your affiliate campaign on their site. They will also pay the affiliate for you—for a commission, of course—which will make the process easier for you. The catch will be in finding one that is willing to accept your product if you are just a beginning entrepreneur.
You can also purchase software to handle both your sales and your affiliate commission tracking and payments. In addition, you can advertise for affiliates through Pay Per Click or Pay Per Action marketing campaigns and offer affiliate sign-ups on your own website.
Building your list is such an extensive topic that I am including it in a separate article.

It is not wealth one asks for, but just enough to preserve one’s dignity, to work unhampered, to
be generous, frank and independent.
– W. Somerset Maugham (1874 - 1965) Of Human Bondage, 1915

Leanne Hoagland-SmithAre your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website |
