from 75 to 604 in a month
Saturday, March 29th, 2008| So how do I build my list? from 75 to 604 in a month? I am not saying I am an expert. I saw someone who achieve better results than me. But I only share my experience if you are willing to know and apply. Shows me by leaving a comment. When I have 20 comments here then I will “reveal” my “secrets“ |
Why do you need to build a list?
Let me explain by an example: Financial Planner. For any financial planner, there are often 2 ways to
get your customers. Either (1) your friends, relatives, neighbors, ex-colleagues, ex-schoolmates. That is someone you know.
or (2) someone you don’t know that is in sales term “cold calling“.
Depends on your experience, your “boss” will either tell you in arranging your name list or simply give you a list and start cold calling. For someone just started financial planning, it is often advised them to approach someone they know first. That is your family members, friends, schools mates and so on. The reasons for that are they already known you. They know that you are trustworthy person and would not run away with their money.
It is similar in the case of online marketing. Your site visitors know nothing about you when they visit your website. They arrive to your site because you have some information for instance making money online. But are they legitimate? They don’t know. So if you can’t prove them your programs work, most likely they will click a little “cross” on their browsers and leave. Do you agree? But what if you asked them to provide you their name and an email address in return you give them something valuable in the first place? There will be a better chances they may subscribe so that you can continue follow up them and give them something about yourself so that they may trust you more right?
In the real world no matter it is online or offline, no one will entrust their money to some strangers when speaking about helping them to make money. You will spend money on buying a movie ticket or purchasing a can of coke in a supermarket but you just won’t trust a stranger when he says to you “Give me 1o bucks now and I will gurantee you by the end of the day, you’ll have a hundred.” In the online there are so many hypes and unhonest around. Therefore by building a list you can give more information about you and your products to your site visitors so that they can more comfortable to purchase your recommendation when they see your value.
I hope you see the importance of build a list. But do you know how I turned 75 subscribers into 604 in a month time?
If so, leave me a comment and explain why I should reveal my secrets here. I will only give this piece of information away when the comments counts are 20 or more.
start commenting now! and have fun.
