Just Getting Started With List Building?

Image via Wikipedia

If you’re ready to start list building, there are some important things you need to know before you begin. Just follow these five tips for getting started in list building for what ever product, program or service you are promoting.

1. A important factor when you start to build your list is making sure that you believe in what you are promoting. The reason why this is important is because people smell a fake a mile away. If you don’t believe in the product, program or service you're promoting, then you run the risk of not making many sales at all.

2. Another important consideration for list building is where you purchase your marketing tools from. It’s critical that you make sure that where ever you purchase your online tools from that you are able to take your list with you wherever it is that you might go now or in the future because there is no point in list building if you can't take your leads with you. If you make sure that you can, then you’ll be fine.

3. You don’t have to spend alot of money in order to market, manage and start building your list. All you need to do is shop around, and make sure that you have your own complete set and can take your leads with you if and when you leave.

4. Instead of complicating your list building efforts by having an autoresponder service at one place and a capture page maker in another, try it this way: do your research and then after finding and feeling good about what you are investing in for the life of your business don't hesitate because regardless where you purchase from, you are going to need the right tools just like any other profession out there. In fact, if you stop for a second, then you will find that what you may need is staring you right in the face.

5. Have you considered building trusting relationships with the people on your list? It’s not as difficult as you might think. What you need to do is automate.

So if you really want to start building your list, follow these tips to save time, money and energy you put into building your business and start enjoying the real pleasures in your life while making your list building efforts a little easier.

Always Keep These 3 Things In Mind When List Building

Image by Matthieu Dejardins, eCommerce Activist via Flickr

I'm sure you've heard by now if you are involved in the internet marketing industry that list building, sustaining that list, and selling to a targeted list is the most profitable option to making money on the internet.

Of course there are other options, which is why, in my opinion, making a living online is a fantastic and exciting means of employment. That coupled with the fact the I don't like to work around someone else's schedule allows me to work on the number one most important aspect with working online, list building.

I'll be the first to admit that list building isn’t easy – in fact, it’s one of the hardest things to do online, and anyone who tells you different is straight up trying to pull the wool over your eyes.

Building a list, and keeping a list takes constant dedication to your niche and your customers. This article will briefly go over some of the best ways you can build, sustain, and profit from your list. Assuming you are using the right online marketing tools ie: email autoresponders, capture page creator, contact manager etc? These are the types of marketing tools you will need to build your list.

Sounds pretty straight forward, right?

List building.

First of all we all have to start somewhere so if you are reading this and you have nobody on your list, I want you to pay very close attention to this next line: Building your list starts and ends with your willingness to help people with a particular problem they are facing, and a solution you are providing.

You can use many different methods to build your list; the 3 big ones are organic traffic, paid traffic, and referral style traffic.

You might trial and error to see what works best for you. I've found that organic traffic works best with article marketing and blogging. Once you have brought people to your site, blog, or sales page you must capture their excitement by getting their email address, name, and any other information you might be asking for on your opt-in form. You must use an opt-in form to do this, and this a tool no marketer should be without.

Sustaining your list.

Getting people to sign up for your list is one thing, but keeping them there, informed, and excited is another. There are several ways you can keep your lists attention. A great way of doing this is to have at least 4-6 months worth of weekly emails that will automatically be sent to them. This will do 2 things; keep them informed and keep you in the know about what’s new in your niche.

Profiting from your list.

The most exhilarating part about having your own list is being able to convert them and make a profit. One very important thing to note: if you are involved with an affiliate program and do not own your own email autoresponder and keep using the companies, you are likely building the companies list and not your own. Ask if you are able to take your list with you if or when you leave.

While you are educating them and being helpful to them with their problem, you can sell those products and services that are related to your niche. There is a fine line you must walk here.

Do not become one of those marketers that try to sell their lists on a daily basis. You will find out very quickly that your list is not interested in buying something from you everyday. Instead, pick your times, and offer something of value before you try to sell to them.

If you have not offered something valuable yet, then you are not ready to sell to your list.

Lastly, never stop list building!

12 Second Commute | Amazing 50% Off Marketing Tools | Angie Mitchell

Image of Darryl Graham

This is the latest update from Darryl Graham at 12 Second Commute.

I want to welcome all the new members of 12SC and invite you to take full advantage of your new 12SC System. I know working online can be a bit overwhelming at times, but if you just keep at it, you will start to see the big picture of how all the tools in 12SC are mandatory to work online and the benefits of having them all in one place will make your life easier and your road to success quicker.

In this update:

* New Pricing and Powerful Opportunity for You

* More Training and Support Added

* Blog Setup

* Conference Recordings

* 12SC Social Community

New Pricing and Opportunity for You—Beginning Wednesday May 12 and continuing through August 31st we will be offering new clients of 12SC the opportunity to get the Elite during their first 5 days of their trial for $19 per month. During the first 5 days this is the only upgrade option they will have.

If they don't upgrade within 5 days of starting their trial, they will have the 4 current upgrade options of $9, $19, $29 and $39 but in all honesty if they pass up the $19 Elite during their first 5 days, they are not going to upgrade at all so you are going to find out real quickly who is serious and who is not.

There is nothing for you to do as this will be done automatically, but I want you to be aware of it in the event you want to promote 12 Second Commute.

The Elite during their 5 days will include the following for as long as they stay in 12SC.

* Free Extreme account at my ad network where they can get 50% discount on advertising and earn money from that affiliate program.

* 15 - 20 minute free private phone or conference consultation with me--This is beyond the regular support we offer and will be a private one on one opportunity for people to pick my brain--what's left of it anyway!!!

* $19/month price lock in for as long as they stay.

Why am I doing this: This is your opportunity to really build a solid downline in 12SC. You will have almost 4 months to promote this offer. We are already paying commissions to over 100 different people each week and I want to see that increase to 500+ by the end of this promotion.

I am going to commit a lot of my time to this offer for you and while this will seriously eat into our profits initially, I have always believed in giving now to get something better in return and this is a great way to accomplish this.

People who join 12SC and stay a month or two are no good to you and they only hurt themselves and nobody and I mean nobody on the Internet offers all we do now and with the Elite at only $19 a month if they quit that, they might as well turn off the computer and get use to sitting in their car and working for some company for the rest of their lives as they are not going to make it online.

What this means to you: From Wednesday though August you will see a big increase in your upgrades if you promote 12 Second Commute because for $19/month your prospects will get an amazing opportunity to not only have all the tools they need for as long as they work online, but they will have a great opportunity to make sales themselves which means more money for you.

For those of of you paying more for the Elite: The new $19 option will not include the free advertising that you get with your account, so you are getting more than the new people. They will have to pay for their advertising while yours is included, so don't think you are being cheated as your Elite account is more powerful than the $19 option.

Plus as I said, we are taking a big hit on these accounts, but that is how you grow your business--give something now for something better in return.

If you promote 12SC over the Summer, you should have a substantial downline where you will be earning commissions and those people will continue bringing people into 12 Second Commute and continue building your downline.

More Training and Support: If you have not noticed, we are now offering 6 scheduled training conferences each week, plus 2 - 3 hours of general support in the Roadkill Marketing Cafe each day. The RK Cafe is a place you can just drop in and ask any questions you desire on 12SC, advertising, marketing, or working online in general.

I am also still reviewing life help chat for the site and hope to implement that in the near future.

Blog Setup: One of the questions I get a lot is people want someone to setup their Blog for them and they are willing to pay for this service. As I don't have time to do this, I asked Angie Mitchell if she would be interested in doing this on the side.

Angie agreed and she will available to setup your Blog for $47. Angie is one of the top users of our Blog and she knows how to get the best use from your Blog.

If you decide to use Angie to setup your Blog, you will pay her directly and we don't make a dime from this as I don't believe in that. We don't take a dime from any work done by her.

There will be a link on the main Blog page that will direct you to Angie's service once, so if you have not setup your 12SC Blog yet but you want to take advantage of that part of your 12SC system, check the main Blog page.

Hosting--Don't forget we now offer hosting for all paid clients through our hosting partner. This is not included in your account but they have plans starting at only $2.99 per month and any paying client of 12 Second Commute qualifies for this amazing rate.

Don't give up on your dream to work from home and online. You can make it and you just need to keep building your prospect list, tracking your links, get objective training and never stop moving forward. Success does not come overnight and it will never come for those looking to make millions instantly.

Don't let this pass you by!

Click here and upgrade to Advanced within the first 5 days and you will get Upgraded automatically to an Elite Account!

Who Am I To Recommend Online Marketing Tools? Angie Mitchell

Are you working from home and do you really want to be successful? That might sound like a silly question, but it is the first questions you must ask yourself and you need to be brutally honest. Do you have what it takes? Are you using online marketing tools? If not, you are leaving money on the table people!

Many people will say "Yes!, I want to be successful!" but they are not willing to do what is necessary to achieve their goal. First off, online marketing tools are a must, look at all the superheroes, they had all sorts of aids to make their lives easier and the end result was, they helped and the mission was accomplished successfully.

Working from home is work and while the scammers are telling you how easy things will be and how much you can make overnight, you and I both know that is not the case or you would not be reading this article.

If working from home was so easy, we would all be sitting on a beach watching the waves roll in with our laptop spewing out money. Working from home can be easier but that requires an investment on your part. Get yourself a set of online marketing tools, let them be your "superheroes" I know you might be good but not that good. Who has time to send out individual emails and keep in contact with their customers while keeping track of where the traffic is coming from? Who has time to hold others hands when you could be handing them a ready made fully customizable program they could be using that very hour?

I saw an email today that read 7 steps to 7 figures and it went on to tell how one person made their first million in only 21 days. Do the math on this and that is over $47,000 per day. Right and I saw a pig flying last Friday too.

People are tired of all the hype and misleading information that litters the internet these days. Every Product, Program and Service is just so much bigger, better, more powerful than the last. Being helpful and teaching others to be helpful is the key to success. People follow people not Products, Programs and Services so, stop trying to cram whatever it is you are trying to promote down peoples throats. Build a relationship and be honest, offer to help... then show them the online marketing tools you use in being successful.

If you believe that hype out on the Internet about instant riches, you might want to stop reading right now because you are not going to get it from me.

Some are so desperate to make money online but they don't want to invest in online marketing tools. Working like a dog, trying to be successful is plain and simple a huge waste of time and money if you don't have online marketing tools- not when you're competing with the thousands that are. It takes some work and it will take some money on your part—not much, but some.

I'm not a "Guru or Webmaster". I did however wake up and smell the coffee then I purchased myself a great set of online marketing tools and I am finally seeing the fruits of my labor and let me tell you it feels pretty darn good! I'm not able to retire just yet but the light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter every day.

Every day people are seeing the power of their online marketing tools, they too are experiencing success.

There are many businesses out there who will give you capture pages and Autoresponder messages to help sell THEIR service, but you are not building YOUR own prospect list. Start building your own list that you totally control and that you can use to sell any legal product, program or service on the Internet.

If you cannot afford online marketing tools to manage your entire online business, build your prospect list and get unlimited help and support, then you might want to seriously rethink your online objectives. No, that is not a slap but as I told you in the beginning, you are going to need to invest a little money to build your business and speaking personally, I am actually making money online and that is more than 99% of people can say.

Do not purchase online marketing tools because I recommend it, do it for yourself and your business.

Online Marking Tools Are A Must | Angie Mitchell

Okay, so we all like convenience, right? Most of us aren’t sitting around wondering how we could make our lives just a little more complicated. Well, for those of us at 12 Second Commute, we’ve got online marketing tools that we use pretty much daily to help keep things, and by things I mean us, more organized, focused, and overall on track.

The flagship online marketing tool that's really going to throw the blood in the water is the top of the line (exclusive only to 12 Second Commute) is the Program Builder.

Network Marketers with a not so active downline are loving this one because it allows you to easily duplicate a sales and marketing system so they can be up and running with the same capture page and autoresponder messages as you--all fully customized with their information.

For example, if you want to create a Program Builder for a current program you are involved with, these are the steps you would take.

Step One : Click on the Variable Setup link and assign the values you want to use in your Autoresponder messages and on your capture page.

Step Two : Click on the Variable Layout Page link and give instructions to users of your Program Builder so they will know what to put in the custom fields.

Step Three : Click on the Autoresponder link and create/edit messages for a current list or create a new list with new messages and insert your AR custom codes in your messages in the proper place.

Step Four : Click on the Capture Page Creator link and create a new capture page and insert the custom codes where you want the information to be or edit a current page and insert the custom codes on that page.

Step Five : Click on the Create New Password and generate your password for this program builder. This is the password, you will send to your clients. You can also find this password in the future by clicking on the Existing Program Details link.

No to worry, there are also videos on the Program Builder that will walk you step by step through the process of creating a Program Builder for your downline as well as using a Program Builder from someone else.

I'd say, coming in a close second would be the Capture Page Creator/Editor; this thing is seriously going to enhance your webpages and the best part is, you don't need to know HTML, Java or any of those other nasty 4 letter words.

Ad and link trackers are also important, so you to know where the heck the traffic is coming from or what's working and what's not?

The Autoresponders are powerful, reliable and easy to use, a must for anybody looking to carve out their piece of the internet! Build a quality and responsive list using the only AR you will EVER need!

A Contact manager is extremely important as well because if you don't keep in touch with your prospects and clients, you will never reach the top. Having this specific online marketing tool solves that issue since it is automatically tied into your Autoresponder, your job is simply a matter of managing prospects and clients instead of having them manage you.

There is so much more included in 12 Second Commute than what is mentioned above, my advice to anyone working online, no matter what your product, information or service is to try a 30 day trial to see for yourself how valuable this system really is.

There are literally hundreds of software tools you can buy, but these are hands down the best online marketing tools that I have purchased.

Online Marketing Tools are popular for a reason - there are some good ones that work just fine, then there are tools like 12 Second Commute that work grrrrreat! The best internet marketing tools can work wonders for an online business.

By adding online marketing tools to your arsenal it is the "secret sauce" that makes the magic work.
