    if your after generating more traffic and leads into your list then you have tonnes of stuff to choose from both free and paid

    i build my lists mostly with solo ads, my blog, videos, forums and articles

    it really depends though on what you have more of, time or money

    Every method of making money online such as email marketing CAN and DOES work when done correctly. Could you make $1 over the next year with email marketing? Sure. $50,000? Sure. Email marketing CAN be good but it depends on you, not it.

    Agree with Ross here. IF you find a way, it can happen.

    It all depends how much work you put in, and how much you want to learn about it.

    Email marketing can be one of those methods not known how to use by many newbies, or be a pro at it.

    No, it's isn't commonly a way of generating traffic. It's a way of building relationships and making sales on the basis of trust and respect (as an affiliate or as a vendor) after you've already generated the traffic and people have subscribed to the list.

    Here are the basics: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post6123982

      I would like to second that: each data-point in a list is a relationship. Now it is the IM's job to develop that relationship to its full potential, from a cold freebie-seeker status, to a hot "repeat buying customer" status.

    A great way to build your list is to build a squeeze page, create a high quality product full of valuable information and give it away for free. If your product is valuable, the people on your list will be more willing to purchase the products that you recommend

    Email Marketing is a mode to promote your Products/Services directly into the Inbox of Target Customers. In today's scenario, Email Marketing is considered as the Most reputed way to communicate with your customers/ prospective buyers. As the Email Newsletter can be highly customized and also be personalized as per the buyers interest.

    You can send the promotional mail though your personal mails (Gmail, Yahoo, etc), but a general email setup has some limitations like Sending Limit, Spamming, Result tracking, etc.

    To overcome the limitations, various tools are used by Email Marketers. These tools could be a Window Based Software or an Online Application. Apart from a sending tool, you also need an SMTP to relay those emails.

    We hope, this will give you an idea about the concept of Email Marketing. You are most welcome to come back to us, if you need any further assistance.

    In my opinion, yes it is. You don't have to go searching for your traffic. After you build a decent sized list (especially a buyers list), you can earn a couple of bucks for sending out one email. That's not too bad.

    I think you'll find that the vast majority of people who have been successful online have done it with email marketing.

    It's consistent, scalable and less risky than building your business on a platform that you don't control like facebook or twitter.

    The thing I like best about email marketing is that if you are relying on SEO for your sites you can capture leads and not have to rely so much on SEO in the future.

    As we all know, Google is unpredictable, and if you are someone who relies on search engine traffic your sites can tank at anytime.

    Yes of course email marketing works, why do you think almost any type of retail outlet on the Internet sends you regular mail when you subscribe. It is all about building a quality relationship with the members of your email list.

    Personally I have managed to get 300 people on my mailing list and I am pleasantly surprised at how good the return on investment has been.

    Email marketing is good but please don't send spam mails. I use an auto responder service to build up my list, double opt in, so this is the best method which confirms the people's consent before sending them email.

    If you have a good list of targeted people who have interest on your niche and if you can design your email in a way that can attract people to read the mail and come to your site than it is a very good way to get traffic. If not, people will treat your mail as spam and even not give any effort to open those.

    I get many emails. But I read only some of them. Emails from Brian Tracy. And emails from Darren Little who I spoken on a skype with. So it's based on a trust. If you received really something valuable from someone, you begin to trust him and you actually read all emails.

    E-mail marketing is mostly used to generste sales and not leads or traffic. You are building a list in order to promoote products.
    If you wish to increase your traffic with a list, the best way is by creating a blog and add a subscribe box. Everytime you update your blog your subscribers will know it and they might come back for a check.

      Miriam, I think you are confusing between "traffic", "leads" and "sales". From my understanding, "traffic" are visitors to your web site/page ("organic" traffic or "paid"), "leads" are visitors who expressed some interest by giving you their email address - hence all squeeze-pages recruit "leads", and "sales" is when those leads are converted into "customers". All these are in fact "relationships" which do evolve from "cold" anonymous visitors to "hot" repeat-buyer relationships.

    Email marketing is effective if you target people who are interested. The way that you can do that is through a squeeze page so people willingly give you their details.
    You should never buy lists as it's spamming, against the law and you certainly don't want to end up in court. I also get people who put fake email addresses so you should add double opt-in. A good autoresponder is also neccessary.

    Email marketing is very effective if you target the right people. To make this happen, people have to willingly sign up through your squeeze page and blog etc. but YOU have to do it right.
    Don't spam people or do anything like that. You have to build good relationships with the people on your list and you have to provide premium content and good stuff. Don't always provide good stuff as then people will start to expect what is in your emails and they will not click it. There are many things which could go wrong but if it goes right, then it could be a big success.

    Email marketing in my opinion is the best type of advertising you can do... Building the list is the hard part and is what defeats most people... It's really not that hard if you go about it the right way... Think about it, you build that list once and with 1 click of a button you can have 1000's of instant eyeballs looking at your offer at no additional cost... As long as you build a relationship with your list and don't blast them 24/7 with ads it will make you a lot of money... My suggestion would be to look into solo ads and start using that to build your list...

    Yes, email marketing is one of the best ways of getting your message out but most marketers make the big mistake of trying to sell their offers with their first email. From my personal experience this can be very annoying and will turn off most potential buyers from the get-go. Let people get acquainted with you and what you are about before you make the sales pitch.
    Avoid the "Hi there! My name is Bob! BUY THIS!" , syndrome as I call it. Most people will not buy from a stranger, especially when they can't see you.
