How You Can Learn About Building an Effective List?

Posted By: | Posted On: | Article ID:

Don't laugh; it is not what you're thinking. Although the jolly old guy could probably teach all of us a thing or two about lists and list building. Just the mention of his list can still send shivers down my spine, residue from all those childhood wonderings if I was naughty or nice?

However, this article has nothing to do with Santa directly, but in a way it has everything to do with him!

You see indirectly, old Saint Nick played a prominent part in my list building education; a very important role. For more results visit us at www.email-auto-format.com. Please let me explain and it may help you in your own list building efforts.

Like every webmaster or online marketer I kept hearing from Day One how vitally important it was to build your own opt-in or permission based contact list. It would be the key to building traffic and revenue from your site or online marketing. The one key element you must have.

But building a list is easier said than done, anyone who has tried to build a list will know this fact. I soon realized I needed help with my list building. For more details simply visits www.craigs-list-profits.com. I have an art background, that's not important, but it did show me how to learn or dissect a subject. All artists develop a hands-on "let's dig in and dissect this creature" attitude; they learn by exploring and studying the masters/techniques that have worked in the past.

This inquisitive learning becomes a second skin.

It was extremely helpful when I started to build my lists. I first examined how other well known marketers were building their lists. One common theme that keeps repeating itself was: free gifts.

Almost all these marketers gave away a free gift: report, e-book, recourse, article, software program, marketing tips or knowledge - all in exchange for the name and email of their visitors.

This simple tactic worked like a charm. Maybe it has something to do with our unbreakable belief in a Santa! Or maybe it has to do with that entire gift giving; we all like to receive gifts. Who doesn't?

Soon I had my own free gifts (e-books, recourses, and free software programs) on all my sites, attached to follow-up auto responders to keep in contact with all my visitors and prospects on my lists. My lists grew

But I didn't stop there, as free gifts was a key to building lists, I needed a creature to dissect!

Then a few years ago, such a creature stumbled out of my email inbox. This was "The 12 Days of Christmas" give-away package by Mark Hendricks.

Countless marketers all donated valuable gifts to an online package/promotion in exchange for building their contact lists. You can also go to www.freelist-pro.com. Great idea and the gifts just kept on coming for well, 12 days.

Everyone builds their lists compliments of dear old Saint Nick.

However, I used the Gift package in another way. I signed up for whatever marketers or gifts interested my fancy but I then did an in depth study of how each of these marketers handled their follow-ups. To know more about it simply login to www.confessions-followup-marketing.com. What they did to build or lose my loyalty. Which ones held my interest, which ones I unsubscribed from and why. Analyzing a whole group of marketers and webmasters through this online package was a valuable lesson or training in list building.

A direct, hands-on experience that pointed out the techniques and methods of building a responsive contact list. What you really need to know about building an effective list.
