Three Quick and Easy Ways to Build a Profitable Opt In List
As an Internet Marketer you realize the importance of having a good opt-in list. By now you’ve read the many success stories of people making a small fortune with their opt-in lists. Opt In means people have voluntarily signed-up to receive your emails. This is one of the reasons that opt-in lists are such a valuable marketing tool for your business. Your subscribers have given their consent to receive announcements, promotions, ads, recommendations, etc. from you!
Now you have decided to create your own opt-in list. Here are three (3) quick and easy ways to build a profitable opt-in list.
• The first thing that you need to do is to get your customers to trust you. Just having an opt-in list does not make you an expert and a believable seller. If you want to establish yourself as an expert in your field, you need to write articles and post them on article directories such as Ezine Articles, Article Alley, etc. You can also join various forums to provide expert advice. These methods allow you to put a link back to your site so that you can start building your opt-in list.
• The second thing that you need to do is find a product or service that people want and need. You need to invest your time and effort into selling something that the buyers or subscribers of your opt-in list can use. Use incentives to attract new subscribers. You will need to offer more than your competitors offer. Your incentive must be of interest and value to them.
• Make friends with other opt-in list users. This is especially beneficial if it is someone who has already established a successful opt-in list. These are people that have the experience in this venture and experience is still the best teacher. Experienced opt-in list users will be able to tell you what to do and what not to do because they have gone through it.
Building a profitable opt-in list doesn’t happen overnight. It takes a lot of hard work and effort. You need to get you’re your list organized. The most important thing is to keep your subscribers happy and satisfied so that they will be willing to buy from you.
Now go build your lists and make money!

Hi Kathy,
I thought it would be a good reminder for all of us. But for real beginners, they need good information on how they can build lists as well as why.
I was reviewing my notes from our class and other notes I have accumulated and decided to put it in writing where others can find it.
Thanks for commenting. 😉
