List building is the
process of adding new subscribers to your mailing list. This subscriber gives
you their email address in exchange for receiving certain information, a
special offer, or a free gift. You can do this online via your website, or you
can do it offline using manual or automated data collection tactics. There are
various tactics you can use to increase how fast you build your list, and how
large your mailing list ends up being.
Online
programs referred to as “list builders” are a modified form of Safelists where
you must build a downline and at the same time only get emails from your own
upline. They are usually free to join but have 2 or three upgrade packages
where the more you’re paying for your monthly membership, the more emails you
can send out.
One great
thing about these services is that they are much more read than a safelist.
Anyone who signs up for a safelist is told from the start that they will get “A
lot” of mail daily, and must supply 2 email address, because they know that you
won’t often be looking inside one of them.
List
builders are all about who’s in your upline and downline, so the email volume
is much smaller, say 5-10 emails a day from the worst ones. And, they don’t ask
for a second email address.
If you
take the time to build up a downline (usually by referring 10 or so people
personally) you’ll be rewarded with a large supply of daily or weekly emailing
allotments for the rest of your life.
The main
benefit to keep in mind is that all these list builders offer you increased
mailings (traffic in this case) for the more sign-ups you get underneath you.
So, the more you spread it around, the more mail-outs you get for life, and
eventually you'll have access to so many mail-outs that you’ll be able to plaster
the planet in your ads.
If you
are a full-time internet marketer, this is something that I encourage you to
check into. I’ve had 1,500 member mailings where 50 people would clickthru
quite often. (That’s a 3.33% conversion, which is pretty normal, and compared
to Safelists with their 0.0001% conversion, it’s phenomenal.)
Of course
if you don’t get any referrals, nor upgrade your account from the free version,
your mailing list will be hard to make large enough to be worth your time.
I’ve even
gone so far as to figure out a very easy and powerful strategy to use your list
builders together in a series to obtain the ultimate traffic
flow. You can find it near the end of this book just before the conclusion,
titled: “The List Builder Traffic Strategy.”
The best three List builders are: List Joe, List dot com, & List lotto. Unfortunately, the older ones
like these don’t get as much publicity anymore like the new ones, including the
latest one, List Bandit… But after testing these new ones out I find that they
are completely rigged against you and waste more time than not. Steer clear of
List Bandit and many of the newer ones completely.
