The Mindset For Building A List Of Proven Buyers..

Building a list of proven buyers is one of the most effective ways to make money from list building. I mean why would you want to create a list of freebie seekers when you can create a list of proven buyers? It doesn´t make too much sense right?

Yeah, you need to have more skills to create a massive list of proven buyers; you need to be able to sell your own products and/or attract massive affiliates who are willing to promote your product for a healthy commission (preferably 100%).

What you need to do is to create a great product with some bonuses on top. The product needs to be really attractive to people in your niche, and can´t be some random garbage.

The second thing you need to know is that affiliates need to find your product attractive, so you need to offer them immense benefits which they will hardly get by promoting any other product. Some of these benefits are 100% commission and 50%+ commission for OTOs (one time offers).

I know that you might not be convinced about offering 100% commissions yet because you think you are losing money, but the reality looks different.. Even if you are not making any money from your product or OTO, you get the email address from each person who purchases your product.

To capture the email address of your purchasers you need to redirect them to an opt-in page once they have completed the payment. Then the purchaser fills in his email address and you send him the download link to his product via email.

Make sure that you have created a "buyers list" campaign in your autoresponder and set up a squeeze page. Once you have done that you can start with promoting your products or find affiliates who generate the sales for you.

I´ve personally figured out that the more unique the value proposition of my product is, the more affiliates I will attract. Make your product stand out by offering unique features, bonuses, special offers and much more. Trust me, your buyers will appreciate it and your wallet will be happy too.

    I agree. It's a win win win situation. Affiliates make out well, customer gets great product, and we get a list that pays for your car, insurance, kids braces etc. Just like it did for me.

      The value of a lead who has already proven to like your products is at the very least 5 to 10 times higher than the value of an average lead that you get from your freebies.

      A list of 500 proven buyers should generate at the very least $2500 monthly.

      The only downside is that it requires more skills to build a list of buyers and it usually does take more time as well, unless you are already very established in your niche, have a great product and more importantly top affiliates.

        Online marketing is about making the right decisions during the right projects. If you can increase your income by 125% within 60 days by simple focusing on a strategy that helps you to pull in higher quality leads, why would you consider to continue generating low quality leads just because it takes less effort?

        Think it's time that we put in more effort into the tasks that make us most of the money.

          Is it possible to design your payment processing funnel so that they HAVE to optin to get access and then e-mail them the login info? That would seem like the most sensible and smoothest way to do it, both to the buyer and seller.

            Yes, that is exactly what you should be doing. Every person who purchased your product will automatically opt in to your list. With that being said, you make money through your product plus have a lot new lead in your list.

    One thing people forget is that email marketing/building lists is a long term plan. Taking my own interests for example, If the content/service/product on the site is good and they offer a very relevant and very helpful freebie in return for an email... It would be pretty narcissistic not to opt in.

    Hi Gerald

    Great post. I totally agree with you. List building is first and foremost. When you are promoting your first product, especially through WSO 100% commission is advisable. WSO has an interesting payment structure. If payment is 75%, first sale goes to the seller and only after the affiliates are paid. Affiliates prefer 100%. You want to get as many affiliates promoting your WSO as you can
