Can you make money by sending an email...?

For my case, I am a guy who has been around the block and have tried almost all the different ways of making money out there.

Back in 2005, I was into micro niche sites, SEO, amazon, Adsense, Affiliate Marketing, Blogging and eBay you name it, I was probably doing it.

After limited success and hours and thousands of dollars of frustration.

I turned to building lists, buyer's lists being my primary focus where I have went on to make hundreds of thousands of dollars from the lists.

Have you made money by sending an email... reply to the thread and share your thoughts and experiences

    I've had some success with different things like Blogging, YouTube and Kindle prior to list building but when I finally started to build a list it felt like a true breakthrough...
    Especially after having my first buyers added to it

    I too started back in 2005. I never took list building seriously.

    But until last year, I am now 100% convinced that the money is in the list.
    Click the send button, and money pours in.

    The hardest part though, it's actually building the list.

    My favorite way to build my list is through launching WSO free/paid ones.

    Hi Clarke

    Your story sounds a little similar to mine

    Yep, things got much easier once I've focused on building a list.

      No one is made to do anything it is their choice to optin to a newsletter, landing paid or offer, many methods including aff marketing is common practice or if you have your own products or services even better. You are paid in direct proportion to the value you give to the marketplace

      Like anything online or off there is an element of trial and error, if you choose to go it alone

      The cliche is true but many fail to make money with their list as they are given the wrong information from the start. I have coached people with lists over 100k and they make very little or enough to cover their expenses, then other with a list of a few thousand which are making 5 figures a month. depends on your strategy

    Email Marketing is a very effective way of making money online, but the truth is you must put into it a lot of effort to build quality list, you can do it only one way by giving away the people really valuable services, informations to make them interact with you. Don`t send paid offers in your each newsletter cos you will burn the list very fast, give them valuable freebies published on your blog. Start interact with your potential clients on forum sites, place your blog`s link in your signature. Help the people, solve their problems and they will opt-in to your list. The worst thing is to go the route of quantity such lists converts very poorly, it`s waste of time and money to pay for keeping such subscribers on your aweber or getresponse account, most of them after once they download something just opt out if you don`t have an idea how to attract them to stay. So the email marketing works excellent if you build your credibility, give the people real value, solve their real problems, promise them they will get more also for free and by continue that you will get strong relationship with them and they will more willingly purchase from you something if you mention about paid offer in occasion of sending them out the freebies.

    I've done website building and list building. Both have made money for me but in my opinion list building has longer terms benefits especially after my sites lose ranking power.

    The money is still really in the list, here is the simple 5 steps for email marketing. Many big boy in the IM are making big with this simple stupid system

    STEP 1: Offer a free gift. The free gift should be VALUABLE.
    Doesn’t have to be big, in fact quite the opposite.

    Yet, the person should feel like they just got $97 or more in value out of it. It should help solve a problem they have, or, it should give them something they want and will use. Do a little brainstorming and market research. It’s not hard, you just gotta do it.

    STEP 2: People will enter their email address to get the free gift.

    Here, all you have to do is GIVE IT TO THEM!* Don’t make them jump through a bunch of hoops. Simply give them what you said you would right away. Easy.
    *Providing an unannounced bonus as well, is always something your new members will appreciate.

    STEP 3: Deliver Valuable Email Newsletters.
    At this point, you’ve provided them with something great, and here you keep on stacking up the VALUE.
    You simply send out entertaining, valuable, non-spammy emails every day or so.
    Over time, these people will begin to know, like, and trust you more and more.

    STEP 4: Recommend Products and Services that solve their big problems.

    These may be products or opportunities you’ve used or are using. It may be something that you KNOW is what this person needs and wants. They trusty They trust you, so you ‘honest’ recommendation will go
    a LONG WAY here.

    And at this point, it’s not pushy or spammy at all. You’re simply recommending something from the position of their trusted advisor. They’ll appreciate you doing this as long as you’re on the up and up and do it right.

    STEP 5: Rinse and Repeat!

    You keep solving their problems, serving them, and providing amazing value. Never stop doing this. EVER.
    Now, that doesn’t seem too difficult to do, right?
    And the truth is, it’s NOT!!
    Don’t make this business any harder than it needs to be.
    Of course, you do want to have the right support structure in place for you to profit handsomely as well.
    And, you want the right structure to offer the highest form of value for your tribe of leads and customers that will be on this list.

    You are right. Building a list is the right way to do it. I have created my successful strategy of earning income on Clickbank-Youtube and I vouch for the simple addition to it to build a subscribers list within this strategy, through adding subscribe link in description box/video and by sharing free valuable reports with people in the niche.

    So long as your readers trust you and feel like you are doing the best thing in their own interest, then you will make sales. Well, at least that's true so long as you actually have a product or service that is worth buying.

    How long did it take to start earning money from email marketing?

  • Profile picture of the author talfighel
    Email marketing is the best way to go if you are trying to promote any product.

    When you follow up with your readers about any affiliate program that you want to make money with, it increases your conversions when they see that same website 3-10 times or more.

    Many people FAIL online because they send all the traffic to the affiliate offer without capturing leads. BIG MISTAKE.

    The old saying is still true:

    The fortune is in the follow up.

    yes we can earn good money by sending email, but if you do have a valid email subscriber list. that you have made according to your niche. like if im not interested in buying car then why im going to open any car related email .. so valid list is much more important in this

      List building is surely taking time but it is worth time-and-energy spending. You might not see the great result at the early period but those amount of time and energy you invested earlier would be nicely traded off when the results are bearing. The key is that you need to do the right way consistently.

      Content is the one to be updated everyday. Relationship and rapport building are also the ones necessary for the long-term success.

      Action and commitment are the key. This business could give you the favorable income. The monthly revenue depends on numbers of your lists acquired and sales you have made. The greater lists existed, the much more chance of businesses to come.

      So, at this stage, building the lists and creating relationship with them are vital.

      Hope this helps. Wishing you the success on this journey!
