What exactly does list building have to do with Network Marketing…..EVERYTHING!

Remember the “Old School” way of recruiting in Network Marketing?  Make a list of 100 people you know….and talk to all of them?

Well, the “New School” way is to build your list of people to talk to via your opt-in web page and auto-responder. Your auto-responder is where your list resides, and your list is one of the top two assets you posses as a network marketer.  The bigger your list, the more people you have an opportunity to present your network marketing opportunity to.

Today, there is such a thing as “List Builders”, which are sites where you can join for free (or pay to join), where you have the opportunity to send thousands of e-mails every several days to members who belong to these services.

Do you know how powerful sending 3000 messages to new potential customers every 3 days is?  VERY.

Let me give you an example of the first one I joined.  I joined ViralURL as a paid member for $197, and I thought, wow, I just wasted $197 dollars. But I wanted to know what I would get out of my membership so I tracked my clicks and opt-ins.

Here are my results for my week of sending these mailings every 3 days….I got 15 new subscribers.  Now that might not seem like alot, but let me run the numbers for you here, and these numbers are if I don’t get any better at it:

15 opt-ins per week, 52 weeks in a year = 780 opt-ins for the year.

Ok, now lets cover the cost per opt-in:

780 opt-ins for $197 =  $0.25 per lead or opt-in.

Now, let me compare this with the $1.50 or $2.00 per lead I pay for on google adwords.  MUCH CHEAPER!!!

So, I believe this is a very cost effective way to generate leads for your business.  While not nearly as quick as Google Ad words, it is cheaper over the course of the year then Google.

Here is the key….you need to send your mailing out every 3 days!!!  Consistency is the key.

**Now keep in mind you can join for free on these, I am not recommending either way, free or join with some money.  If you join for free you can leverage your time, if you join at the paid level, you will take advantage of the huge cost and time effectiveness that I talked about above. You choose which is best for you.**

Here are the list builders have tried and like.  I have tried others…..but these I feel are the best:

Viral Url – Probably the most responsive one I have seen.  I got the highest opt-in % of any of these from here.  Very good for promoting your product.

List Bandit – Has a matrix which is re-built every night.  Could potentially e-mail 50,000 people if you end up near the top of the matrix.

Listdotcom – Mike Filsaime’s list – Has a HUGE list of Internet Marketers on it.  Has the biggest list out there.

ListJoe – I get the most clicks out of this one.  It works best if you are giving something away for free like the 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing, or your own stuff.

You see, the secret with Internet Marketing is in the follow-up, not necessarily in what people see first with you.  Remember, its all about building a relationship with them and adding value.  Give and you will get in return 10 fold.  You can do this by setting-up your own prospecting system, like what I have….
The first step in setting up your own prospecting and referral system is creating something called a landing page. A landing page is basically just a regular web page, but with your marketing message on it. However, you need to make this a little unique because with this system, you only have about 10 seconds to grab someone’s attention. You need some sort of attention grabbing headline. Something like “Lose weight the easy way” or “Make Big Money from Home”. You want to grab their attention enough to get them to input their e-mail address into your page.

I recommend Site Build It as a website hosting service. You can get tons of websites set-up for under. They have very intuitive site building tools. You can use Site Build It for any web pages you want to though.

The second part of your landing page must have a place for where the person visiting can put their information in. The less you ask for the better. I recommend only asking for a first name and e-mail address. Once they input this information, they will automatically have their information put into your e-mail auto-responder.  I’ll cover that in a future lesson.

In the next post, I will cover the essential of what go on an effective landing page.

Ezine advertising is an extremely powerful way to build your opt-in list and create prospects for your network marketing business. Ezine advertising can generate traffic to your Network Marketing Opportunity page VERY quickly.

Maybe your impatient, like me… All of us are like that at some point.

Maybe you NEED to make money NOW!

If that’s the case, today’s marketing strategy is for you.

If your own subscriber list isn’t big enough yet to pull in all the income you need right now, all you have to do is start sending your ad to other people’s opt-in subscriber lists!

Imagine sending your opportunity ad right now to 5,000 or 10,000 or 100,000 or 1 MILLION motivated opt-in subscribers within the next few days.

When you send an ad on Ezine advertising, these people who get your ad have already opted into that Ezine and WANT to get that information….they are hungry for what that Ezine has to say. Now send an ad them and get them hungry for what you have to say.

How many sales could you make with that much exposure?

What if you made 10, 20, 50 or 100?

Here’s how it works:

There are thousands of ezines (Internet newsletters) out there RIGHT NOW with *HUGE* subscriber lists standing by ready to send YOUR AD to their list.

All you have to do is place an order!

To achieve this, let’s say you buy 2 ezine solo ads for $75 each. Each ezine has 10,000 opt-in subscribers for a total of 20,000 subscribers. Upon sending the ads, you only get a 0.1% response rate which equals 1 sale for every 1000 subscribers who receive your ad. You just made 20 sales and new customers! BINGO! Instant cash for you and your Internet Network Marketing business.

Do you see how it’s nearly impossible not to make money with this system? Imagine… being able to spend $700 in advertising and still earn a strong residual income with only 20 sales. And 20 sales is a very, very conservative estimate. Most people who spend that much money in advertising make a whole lot more than 20 sales… Start applying the strategy outlined below and you can join that club!

Are you ready to get started?

Tip#1 Be sure to choose the SOLO AD option. Each ezine offers different types of advertising solutions such as classified ads, sponsor ads, etc. The way to make this strategy work for you is to purchase SOLO ADS. This is where you get to send your ad ALL BY ITSELF to the ENTIRE list of subscribers!

I am going to recommend one Ezine in particular, Solo-Ads.com. Here you can get free, targeted solo-ads for reading other solo-ads and clicking their links. The best part is, you qualify for sending and ad out when you first sign-up! Or, you can just buy the number of ads you want and save time.

You will absolutely want to consult the Directory of Ezines for other excellent places to place your solo ads. Use the search tools to get the largest, targeted readership for the best price. Once you search in there, look for ezines that hit your target market…

Enjoy.

Successful Network Marketing Now – FREE Tips and Tools for your Network Marketing Business

Time for another lesson in driving traffic.  This time its a old stand by, Forum Marketing.   Have you noticed a trend in some of my suggestions? You are learning ways that the smart people use to DRIVE INTERNET TRAFFIC TO THEIR Network Marketing web site. I’ll get into what a good web site looks like to promote in a little bit.

I am teaching you some ways to DRIVE that internet traffic to your business.

You need to get a FREE membership to the a Business Chat network marketing forum, there are so many in the Internet marketing community on the Internet… Period.

In reality, a Forum membership is more valuable than all the Internet marketing eBooks, training programs and membership sites you could ever join. In fact, most of the people publishing Internet marketing eBooks, training programs and membership sites are active forum members.

Remember when I talked about education??? You will not get any better education then on a forum. It is full of real people making real comments on how to make money, drive traffic and get rich on the Internet. You want to make some money right?

So what is a Forum? A Forum is an online community and discussion forum for internet users.

Forums are often stomping grounds for the best Internet marketers on the planet.

A Forum is a training ground for thousands of up and coming Internet marketers.

A Forum is a place to share ideas, find answers, make friends and develop partnerships.

A Forum is an organic, always growing, support resource for your entire Internet marketing business.

In addition to all of this, Forums are *great* places to PROMOTE you and your web site.

The only way to benefit from Forums is to experience it for yourself.

So let’s get started…

I am going to recommend one forum to join, Conquer Your Niche. What is really cool about this forum is that you’ll get to display an ad on the forum. And they give you advertisement credits every time
you post, reply, or even READ a post. Log into those links and follow the instructions written to create your FREE account.

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING ABOUT BEING ON A FORUM IS YOUR SIGNATURE FILE. Let me say that again… THE MOST IMPORTANT THING ABOUT BEING ON A FORUM IS YOUR SIGNATURE FILE.

The hints and tips I am giving you here can make you a fortune if you use them. Just stay focused and go with what I am saying.

OK, signature files. What’s a signature file? A sig file is an ad placed at the end of each of your forum posts. What’s a forum post? A forum post is when you respond to a discussion in progress (also known as a thread) by typing a response and submitting it. The Forums contain thousands of discussions in progress. When you post to a discussion in a forum, your response will be included as part of the discussion. At the end of your response, your sig file ad will appear so that everyone who reads that thread in the future has the opportunity to see your ad.

What do you want to include on your signature file? A link to your web site you are promoting of course!!!! Having a web page in your signature file is essential. Sig file ads in the forum are immortal. In other words, they can remain active and produce profits for you forever. Even when a discussion (thread) is no longer being actively posted to, it remains in the forum archives forever. These archives are often indexed by Google and other major search engines and discussions that you’ve participated in are often found by people using the search engines.

The more you post in the forum, the more inbound links you’ll get to your website. The more inbound links you get, the more visitors you’ll attract. The more visitors you attract, the more sales you’ll make. It really is that simple.

OK so here is the secret. Go to each one of those network marketing forums I recommended and post something on there in response to a thread of discussion.

Here is the key though…NEVER ADVERTISE YOUR BUSINESS ON A NETWORK MARKETING FORUM!!!! Your signature file does all the advertising for you! When you post a comment……ask a relevant question, post some information that might be useful to someone on there. NEVER blatantly advertise your business on there…people will label you as a spammer and not listen to you at all. Even worse, you might get banned from that forum.

Do 5 forum posts a day for 25 days. With your signature file attached, that is 125 links back to your website! All for commenting and learning from a forum for FREE!!! The more posts you do, the more people are going to think you are an expert! People want to work with an expert and they will start clicking on your link in your signature file. WHAMO!!!! Instant traffic to your web site.. Get it?

Now, wash, rinse, repeat… AT LEAST 5 times today and every day for the next 25 days!!!

By the way…

If you’re a little bit intimidated about posting the forum….there is no need to be..dive in there and contribute!!!  Everyone had to make a first post.
