How to Monetize a List? All Advice Appreciated

5 replies
Basically, I've got a few lists, some really small but some substantial ones over 25,000 double opt ins.

Just wandered... What's the best way to monetize them?

They all subscribed to receive a free guide in the particular niche the site is for. I have quite a lot of different niche lists.

Just don't know what's the best way to go about monetizing them?

Promote Affiliate Products?
Create my own Improved PAID Product?
Sell Solo Ads?
Other?

    I would say that..

    1) Promote Affiliate Products
    and
    2) Promote your own products

    are the best ways to generate bucks out from your list. Just remember to build trust by giving away free stuff, but i'm pretty sure you have done that when you have a 25k list. Begin monetize your list with affiliate products, there are lots of money to be made!

  • Besides you gain relationship by offering the information to the subscribers that they want to know more, over deliver the value, like Mike said, is either your product and other people's product that need to be promote and sell at. The list is your ONLY asset to start profit on. Now you have a lot , is time to unleash the power !

    short answer.... sell them stuff!

    and its better if its your own stuff so you get 100% of the earnings!

    in the short term send something relevant to the audience that you can talk about and recommend - also check warrior plus for good wso's which are usually really great value for your readers.

    I know it sounds dumb but one rule to follow.....

    sell stuff!

    have a great day

    Promote products in the niche of the list! Of course, it's also important to keep a good relationship with your list and don't go sending tons of emails at a time promoting products.

    I agree with Kym Sell them some Sh*T man!

    Of course be sure that it is high quality valuable information. If its an affiliate product buy it yourself first and make sure it delivers.

    I would say first write 2-3 value adding emails with nothing for sale and then hit them up with a promo email.
