Hi,

I’m sure you own blogs, even if only one blog.

Blogs are great tools for creating websites easily. More importantly, blogs have enabled us to share our knowledge and opinions easily with other people.

But the thing with blogs is that there are too many distractions. I mean, if you try to build a list with your blog, you’re guaranteed to get poor results.

For starters, there is the sidebar that links to other websites. Then there are commentators’ links. Banner links. Etc. All of these are outage.

Help!

Fear not, as there is a workaround to this.

Use this WordPress plugin:

You’ll be able to easily and instantly (in 2 minutes) create your very own beautiful optin box to collect visitors’ email or present a custom message/ad to them.

Your choice. Either way, you get them to take the action you want them to take. You lead them. You entice them. Show them offers, etc.

You can be super aggressive with your marketing, or you can be super-subtle. Again, your choice.

Here’s the link again to this cool WordPress plugin:

Best,

PS. List building is easy when you have the RIGHT tools

Business lead databases are an incredible resource for any business wanting to generate clients. Leads are the life source of almost every successful business. Without leads you have no customers and without customers you have no sales, no referrals, and definitely no income.

Business lead databases are essentially a huge resource of business leads. They are websites or companies that have a list of businesses categorized into industry sector. Decent business databases will be updated often and they will only contain opt-in leads to businesses that wish to be included.

Fresh Leads

Regularly updated lists mean you will always have up to date information. You won’t be clicking dead links to sites, you won’t be trying to contact people who have left the company or moved department and you won’t be contacting companies who are in a different industry to the type you are interested in.

Opt-In Leads

Opt-in leads mean that the business and contact details you are using are not only relevant but they are also willing recipients of your emails, letters or phone calls. With the increase of Spam and the prosecution of people and companies who partake in spamming individuals and companies it is in your best interest to make sure that you do not Spam.

Targeted Prospects

Specific leads from business databases will be categorized accurately dependent on geographic location, industry and any other specifications you may have. The increasing use of the Internet to run businesses means that geographic location isn’t as important anymore. You can sell your products or services to customers across the world but you may also want to send mail campaigns or paper flyers. You may be selling large heavy equipment or a service that can only be performed in person. In these cases you will only want to contact companies or people who are in a region close to your own.

Reputable business databases will offer all of this and much more. As you can imagine, keeping a database like this maintained and up to date will entail a lot of work. In order to do this effectively, they will more than likely charge a small fee to cover the ongoing work.

Find a Good Business Database and Stick With It

The Internet has a lot of available business databases and you should be careful to select one that has a large number of businesses included and keeps its records up to date and as accurate as possible. You shouldn’t just jump in with the cheapest one you can find or you may find that you wasted your money and you have to pay again for a better database.

Business databases are an invaluable resource for getting large amounts of leads in a very short period of time. They can save you months, even years, of trying to develop your own leads and every web site and small business should consider using one.

Paying for the use of business databases can either be as a one time payment allowing you full lifetime access or on a monthly basis, or even for each category of mailing list you require. There’s even a chance you could get some free leads for your money.

In short, business lead databases can be a great investment. Don’t just jump in and buy the first lead list you find. Shop around, find a reputable company and the extra work and fees involved will likely be very worth the effort.

This has been a very enlightening and challenging week. My daily routine is starting to form a pattern and pretty soon this network marketing thing is going to become second nature. I know there are certain things that have to be done in order to be successful and they must be carried out each and every day. How they get carried out and in what priority is a personal decision but they must get carried out.

Visiting forums, reviewing business offers, managing links and advertising, tracking campaigns, article writing and submission. Let’s not forget website management, search engine submissions, prospecting and list building. What about product reviews and development. We found a new product, we review it, get it into our sites, and begin marketing of said product. This in itself is a time consuming process but is definitely required if we are going to move forward with our business.

We must continually build our list. Lists! No matter what organization you are affiliated with you must have customers! One time visits are not going to sustain you very long so we must continually massage and build our client data base and try to achieve loyal and happy customers. With out a customer base that is continually growing and expanding we are dead in the water. There is no real secret to building a client base we just have to remember that it takes time. It will not happen over night but instead is a living, breathing organism that must be fed and nourished. In time we will have a huge data base of leads that will help us create a good income. Lets face reality- we are in sales even though we call it network marketing. It might be affiliate programs, digital products or hard consumables. It may simply be information we are selling but we have to market and sell our selves don’t we? No matter what we are doing on the internet we are all in sales one way or another and therefore must have a LIST. I think we have beat this one to death

Moving forward lets discuss a simple thing like visiting forums. We visit forums in order to share information and experiences both positive and negative. I am not talking about chat rooms. I am discussing business related forums like the Warrior forum. This is the place I go to get free helpful information to run my business. I might even find a business partner or new product. The possibilities are endless! I try to visit each and every day to see what is going on and to assist my fellow marketers if I can. I do not go there just to submit responses that are worthless in order to let my signature file, small ad, be seen. That is not the purpose of business forums. Submit responses only if it you have a valid and meaningful response. This is not the place to air out your laundry or mass market your business.

Working from home has its benefits but it also has its requirements just like any other business. It requires your time and commitments each and every business day!

Here are 3 serious reasons to grab the plugin while it lasts [competitive advantages not found elsewhere]

1. You can now turn your blog into a subscriber gaining machine with point and click ease.

Aren’t you tired on the “latest” tools which promise to deliver the moon and leave you empty handed? Like this wasn’t enough, you not only get nothing, but the software you buy can only be used by their “techie” developers. Not with Subscribers Magnet!

Using this tool is as simple as 1-2-3. Just copy-paste some text into your widget, and with one or two clicks of your mouse, you’re done. You have professionally-looking subscription windows “instantly” appearing either on your sidebar, at the top, in the footer, in the blog post itself, or a combination of these.

2. You can “transfer” [a lot] more visitors from your web site to your mailing list, in a non-intrusive, safe mood. They’ll actually thank you for giving them the chance to hop on your list and receive your great content, which they’d not find on your blog.

3. It saves not only your time, but your visitors time, at the same time.

Unlike the “old style” opt-in forms, with Subscribers Magnet, your visitor’s name and email address will be automatically filled in the form. All they need to do is click the submit button.

If you are not fascinated about these advantages by now [and I've only shared a few with you] I’m not sure what else. Can you see the potential? Can you see how for the same 100 visitors browsing your blog, you can now get 10, or even 15 subscribers, instead of just 5? Let’s put it in monetary terms — if your blog makes $100 a month, with this plugin you could be making $200, $300, or even more — without paying for advertising or using PPC!

Once again — here’s the 30% OFF discount link HERE. Don’t tell anybody about it, unless they’re friends of yours, and you’d like to let them know about this surprise “gift”.

Here’s Marlon’s cheat sheet for generating leads online:

1. First you need to know how much you can afford to spend
to get someone to join your email list.

a. After people opt in, you’re going to present them with
an immediate offer, either on the thank you page, or the
page after they confirm their email.

I’m going to call this "sale 1."

a. Count the total revenue generated from sale 1,
including upsells and downsells

This is the KEY. When they buy sale 1, it’s critical you
immediately have upsells and downsells.

b. For example sake, let’s say after they opt in, you present an
offer for $27 and, on average, including a $250 upsell and $50
downsell (if they decline the $250 offer), you net out $50.

If you’re converting 10% of opt ins, that is $5 per opt in. Now,
you know you can conservatively spend $2.50 to get an opt in. I’m
going to use this $2.50 as an example.

You have to calculate your own numbers.

2. Critical points for your name capture (or squeeze) page

a. You need to be capturing 10% to 15% minimum. Some of my friends
take this up to 30% on ppc traffic. I’ve heard higher figures but
they are probably from traffic other than ppc.

b. Use a tested headline

==> Scan your subject lines for something that did well and pull
from it for the squeeze page.

==> If you have pay-per-click ads running, take one that did really
well and turn THAT into a headline.

==> Model other headlines you KNOW are working well

==> Look at the posts in forums in your market with very high views.
Borrow those subject lines — creatively. Model don’t steal.

c. If you can put together a hot screen capture video or real video,
this will likely increase opt ins.

d. Make sure your opt in box is above the fold of the screen, so
people don’t have to scroll to get to it.

3. Adapt your squeeze page for Google

a. There’s a nasty rumor that Google doesn’t allow squeeze pages.
Search stuff on Google a lot and bookmark ALL squeeze pages you find.
There are still MANY out there that are working.

b. Look to see if the successful squeeze pages have links to
content, privacy policies, contact info.

4. Start a swipe file

a. Save squeeze pages to a squeeze page folder
b. Save hot sales letters to a sales letter folder
c. Save great google ads that you keep seeing over and over to a
ppc folder
d. Save awesome screen capture videos to a video folder

5. Run the numbers for pay-per-click

If you can spend $2.50 to get an opt in, and 1 out of 10 clicks
opts in, then you can spend .25 per click.

===> If you can’t realistically get your traffic for .25 click, then
tweak your numbers.

– Add an upsell
— Add a downsell
— Add video to boost your conversions
— Do something else to improve your numbers.

6. Test banners on Google

a. Banners are a goldmine if you can get ones that convert. Test on
Google site targeting.
b. If they work, test them on Adbrite.

7. Buy banners on forums

– Forums can be a little goldmine

8. Buy banners on highly targeted blogs

9. Track everything

You can use hypertracker or adminder. But there is a monthly fee for
those. Automateyourwebsite.com has an adtracker built in.

Currently, I use AdtrackZ gold. See my interview with Daegan in
Promo Dashboard.

10. Know your tracking software in and out.

– If you can pass variables to it, learn what this means and how
to do it.
— Learn about sids, tids and the other tracking suffixes

11. Have a GREAT freebie

a. The freebie you offer on your squeeze page is ALL important
b. The title is everything
c. You can offer something as simple as a 1-page report like Agora
does all the up to a free ebook like Ben Hart does.
d. Steal from your winning subject lines and ppc ads for the title
of your freebie.

12. The more robust your back end, the greater your freedom for
generating leads on the front end.

a. Start a back-end swipe file where you save product ideas for
back ends that others are using.
b. Create a back-end swipe file where you save videos and sales
letters for back-end products.
c. Study back-end revenue generating sales letters, videos,
webinars and teleseminars. Get the recordings and save them for
reference.

13. If all else fails, sponsor teleseminars and webinars where
other sell their big ticket back ends and you make 1/2.

PS If you think this post was helpful, please feel free to share the link , to your contacts, followers and subscribers. They’ll much appreciate it, don’t you think?

Everyone is saying that you have to have a list? The money is in the list! finally you realize that you require a large opt-in list. So, after studying countless reports about numerous articles about people making money with a list. Finally you decide to have your own. That’s when it hits you, you thought you have read all that there is to learn about lists. You have observed their guidelines and still you were not able to earn revenue.

You may even be losing revenue. Perhaps you’re paying ghost writers to write articles for you., Even with a huge list, if a small portion of your subscibers buy from you. You will lose income. You’ll see that after a month or two once you examine your opt-in figures and sales figures.

What might have gone wrong? How come others succeeded where you’ve failed? The first mistake most people make is that they plunged straight in. They picked a subject you thouht might be popular and would make you revenue. This is not the case. Simply because you wrote to people from your mailing list doesn’t mean they’re going to buy immediately.

I’ll offer some advice, for those of you who already have a list and are yet to succeed, you’ll have the abililty to rejuvenate your failed online venture. For those of you who are just starting out, here are 3 fast and easy methods to establish a fruitful opt-in list.

First of all, Create trust with your customers and your products first of all. Merely launching your opt-in list would not establish you as an expert and a credible seller. Send several articles and reports first prior to you starting an opt-in list. Write about the topic you have experience in that relates to your site. Try to ask questions and helpfull info in forums first to increase knowledge about your buyers like their wants and needs and target those exact wants and needs.

Signup in forums of additional sites too. make sure to provide expert advice and comment. Once people have confidence in you, you’ll be able to begin your own opt-in list. You could build up a list with other forum members. You’ll be able to ask them to join your list. Friends are always good customers. Put up a link to your web site so that they may be able to learn what you’re business is all about.

The certain truth is, the profit will only come in when the consumers and subscribers believe and trust in you. They desire a product or service that could be a good value for their hard earned money. Most people are simply not going to purchase something form you if they if they don’t know who you are.

2) Find a product or service that people want and need. Although it may not be your forte, if you offer a service and product that you’ve researched and learned about substantially, you can carry it on forward. Commit your time, effort and money that you could sell as well as the customers or subscribers of your opt-in list could apply.

Although it’s true that it’s better to offer a product that interests you, there might not be many people with the same interest. If you sell a product that isn’t exclusively popular or searched for often then it may not earn you a profit. I would suggest you start with good research and you’ll see the profits come. Also supply your list with some promotional material that they could really use and also spread around to friends.

3) Socialize and get to know other owners of opt-in lists owners. This is essentially beneficial particularly if it is someone who’s already set in motion a successful opt-in list. These are people that have the experience in this venture and experience is still the best teacher. Although there are many reports available to you on the web, there’s nothing like a first hand account from somebody you trust.

Experienced list owners will be able to tell you what to do and what won’t work since they have gone through it. Although different situations happen for different people, the general concept can still be very helpful. There are numerous things to avoid and these folks will be able to tell you which ones.

Building a successful list does not just materialise overnight. There are numerous steps to follow and work to be done on your side. Lists are made-up from scratch, as you grow your list, You should also be sure to maintain the quality of your list. Make sure to keep it updated and free of unsubscribers. just be sure that your subscriber base is satisfied and they’ll be willing to purchase from you.
