The No Opt In Trend?
I've been thinking lately...kind of dangerous given my decidedly small noggin'...
I know that one of the core strategies for making money online is to build up a mailing list.
Traditionally, we offer something of value like an ebook, PLR articles, header graphics, sample services, etc. in exchange for an email address. Hey, even I have one in my sig line.
"Sign up now and get your free eBook on how eating prunes can make you taller!"
So the normal order of exchange has been "You give me your email FIRST, then I'll give you the freebie."
The problem, though, is that sometimes these freebies are...well...kinda junky. Just something slapped together with very little attention to quality or value for the user.
And even though I'm probably using a throwaway email address I still feel sort of duped when the freebie turns out to be genuinely lame.
I think to myself: "Gee, if this freebie is any indication of their product quality, would I ever want to eventually BUY their commercial product?
*-*-*
However, I've noticed that whenever someone changes the order around to "I'll give you the freebie first, THEN if you like it you can give me your email address" I tend to be much more appreciative of the person. And if the freebie is at all decent, I feel much more at ease in giving them my email and more inclined to buy their product. Our business relationship is off to a fine start!
One very good example of this no opt in required offer I've seen here on the Warrior Forum are the posts made by Alice Seba.
Here are a couple of her posts:

You can get 5 free PLR articles -- very well written I might add -- totally for free. She doesn't even require your email address. Only after you've seen her work and if you want to actually buy some of her PLR products does she receive your email address.
I think that's a very smart and confident way to build up a client list!
