    Default How Do You Build A List of 200 in 30 Days?

    Just curious as to what you fellow internet marketers do in order to increase the number of subscribers in your list. I am having trouble building my list and if I could get my first 200 subscribers, I would be ecstatic.

    I want to have some ideas on how you guys build your list and maybe some other techniques that not very many marketers do. Maybe some people think outside the box when it comes to list building. We all know the money is in the list so I hope this post will not only benefit me but others as well!

    Hi Cris,

    there are many ways to build a list.
    you can give away things if people opt in to receive them. You can create a regular newsletter. You can become involved in joint ventures.... that's just to start.
    There are plenty of free ebooks around that can give you a better idea because there is no single magic trick. It takes time because you want quality instead of quantity or ideally you want both.

    Get an Adwords coupon and run a few campaigns till the coupon money runs out. Should be good for a few hundred subscribers in a few days (no, I'm not kidding, I've done this).

    I also got a good amount of subscribers by creating high-quality products and giving them away.
    ...stand by for epic sig-file!

    Article marketing to build links to your squeeze page! It's FREE an VERY EFFECTIVE. People get a since of what type of person you are through your articles. And I must admit, winning people over with personality and style plays a huge role in marketing. Its all about relationships. Build it, and the people will come to you

    I've tried this twice in 2 different markets, just as a way of trying to learn. In the most recent one I got about 8 subscribers for the $100 coupon. I might have gotten a better opt-in rate if I had an offer with it though. I'm still putting that together. I'm still analyzing the data to get the actual numbers, but I was hoping for a bit better opt-in rate.

    Hm... that's a pretty bad return on investment. If you have some freebie to offer and make a nice squeeze-page, even on "cold" PPC traffic, you should be able to get 35%-50% opt-in rate.

    That's one of the reasons that I've been trying to learn as much as I can about this stuff. I know the technical end of things, having a programming background. It's the marketing that I struggle with.

    I've been on a giveaway, but decided to test the AdWords while the iron was hot, so to speak. I now know that the giveaway is crucial. I know that my opt-in was less than 1%.

    I also need to work on the squeeze page (I don't particularly like the implication of that name) so I have some work to do there too. This site is my first Drupal site so I have some learning to do there on how to 'declutter' to make a better landing page. I suppose I could just have a hard coded html page, but I like the flexibility of using WordPress or Drupal or something similar.

    But I do like the idea of using the AdWords coupons. I actually thought it through myself when I got the coupon. It seemed like the perfect way to drive a little traffic to my opt-in.

    I'm currently building out the autoresponder series and the site content, so it is a balancing act and I'm learning as I go.

    One other thing that I'm looking at for list building, once I've got about 200-300, is ad swaps.

    Lone Wolf, you have hit the nail on the head.
    A lot of people have issues when it comes to online marketing because they have one skill set or the other.

    One is marketing and the other is the technical expertise.
    It's a lot harder to have both sets and use them well.

    I am lucky that I have a good friend who is fairly good with the technical side but knows a lost nothing about IM, while I am the IM side and always learning.

    This is where outsourcing is very handy. It's hard to combine everything in your brain and I know mine is usually melting anyway.

    Unfortunately, I have an extremely limited budget which makes outsourcing difficult. I have been working with PLR material to help with the content development but the marketing stuff is just stuff I have to learn the hard way.

    At least it isn't the hardest way. Trial and error would be so much worse! I've got forums like this and the giveaways from the gurus to at least give me a sense of the direction to follow.

    What if your list isn't in the Internet Marketing niche? Would this still go over well in Warrior Forums? It sounds like a great plan though. I'll probably give it a try.

    My current list is in the Personal Development niche (Goal Setting specifically, but I intend to branch out into other areas as well). I know I need this, so IM folks in general might find it useful.

    I probably need to find a couple forums in my niche that would allow this sort of thing and see if I can get some sign ups that way.

    Hi Cris,

    I am posting a video up tomorrow which shows how you can passively build a list by using a simple blog layout. It has three elements which all capture subscribers.

    I'll post a link up here tomorrow once i have loaded it up.

    Cheers

    I haven't started a blog yet although I am beginning to realise how important it is.

    Shall look forward to your video Richie as this may prove very helpful in general terms as well as helping to capture names.

    Looking forward to it Richard. Will you be including any ideas for generating traffic to the page? That would be a big help for me.

    I do agree certainly..

    You can never hit two birds with one stone..you need division of labor..
    Know what you are good at and what you are not..from there find something that have difficulty with and get someone you trust that can help you a lot..;)

    It's some valuable information in this thread. I definitely want to improve my list building skills, as this is my weakest area of internet marketing.

    Maybe it's the weakest because I've been focusing on learning how to general traffic first. But now that I'm somewhat good at getting traffic and making sales I want to concentrate more on list building. So this thread was real helpful.
