Tips On List Building - 3 Super Tips To Increase Your Dollar Return From List Building

The money is not always in the list because mistakes with list building can actually make you lose money. In this article, I'd like to share my own personal tips on list building that I have no doubt that you will benefit from. Let's take a closer look right now.

Confirmation Sale

You should always redirect your new subscriber to an offer that will genuinely interest him or her. The best way to do this is with an "OTO" (one time offer) script that counts down and sets a genuine time limit. Don't bother trying to avoid buying a script by lying and saying that "this offer will self-destruct in 2 minutes" because nobody will believe that.

If you don't have a script and can't afford one yet then just do a simple redirect. It may not seem "pretty" but if the offer you are showing is genuinely going to help your subscriber then you should not worry about this - you'll be doing your subscribers a great favour.

Encourage Reprinting

Just imagine if your readers wanted to take one of your emails and put it on your site. Imagine if many people did this - you would have tons of backlinks and traffic going to your squeeze page. You'd even have your affiliate links plastered all over the internet.

Well, they would do if you told them to. Most subscribers don't think about it, they probably assume that to take your content without your permission is not allowed. So go ahead and regularly encourage them to do so. You can even include a small line of text that says something like "please republish so long as you preserve my links". Put it somewhere where it will not distract them from clicking on your affiliate links.

Don't Be Afraid To Sell

You've probably heard people tell you things such as "be nice to your list" and to try really hard to keep them sweet and be their best friend and develop trust etc.

That is all well and good but you can easily go overboard and treat them too well. Giving too much of yourself and then when you do drop your links, nobody clicks on them or nobody buys. That's because you've turned them into freebie seekers and they expect everything from you to be free. If all your content is great and you hardly ever sell then why should they buy from you if they can still get 99% of your quality knowledge for free?

Instead, you should not be afraid to sell. Put links in most of your emails to get them used to clicking. And when you want them to click a link then don't be afraid to tell them to do so. Don't be afraid to sell - people expect it. Otherwise, they will see you as a charity and treat you like one.
