Most people believe that a large
mailing list is the secret to big
money. It really is not. What counts is
the quality of the people on your list.
This means that they are likely to buy
when you send out an email.
As you can see, if they aren’t buyers,
it doesn’t matter how many people you
have on your list. No buyers, means you
get no business.
The real “secret” to making money
online is having a list populated with
people who are willing to hand over the
money when you show them a great
opportunity. Certainly, they won’t buy
each offer you have, but they will
purchase those items that make sense to
them. It isn’t more complex than that.
Here’s 3 ways I make sure I build a
list of buyers.
1. Offer something cheap!
Whilst there’s not a lot of profit
potential from $10 sales, I go as low
as $7, even as low as $1.
If no one is willing to buy even at
these low prices, especially if I’m
offering something of great value then
you know that they shouldn’t be on your
list in the first place.
2. One-time offers!
This is where I’ll provide something
for free and then after they sign up
they’re presented with a mid-range
priced offer, somewhere between $27-$97.
If they buy I’ll use Aweber’s
automation feature to subscribe them to
my ‘buyers’ list. This was I get to
filter out the buyers from the freebie
seekers.
3. Low-cost membership.
If someone is willing to spend say
$4.99 a month on how-to content, do you
think they’ll be interested in the
higher end products you have to offer?
Of course they would. This is why I
focus on setting up low-cost,
low-profit recurring membership sites
that provide information in the form of
PDF reports.
I can then guage that up-selling a
higher priced one-off $97 product would
not be so much of a problem since
they’re already use to spending with me.
This is just some of the ways I
generate a buyer’s list and it’s the
same mentality you should be adopting
to get the most out of your list!
No one wants a list of freebie seekers
do they? Rather have 100 REAL buyers
than 100,000 freebie seekers!
