It's NOT In The List...

John Taylor · 05-26-2009, 01:12 PM

One of the foundation stones to my online business
is, and always has been, building a number of niche
based subsciber lists.

While you can drive targeted traffic to a website,
and you can put in lots of effort into converting
visitors into customers, one of the most important
conversion tactics is to convert those visitors
into subscribers first.

When someone trusts you with their name and email
address, you get the opportunity to send them
multiple messages. You can open a dialogue with
them and you get more than just a single shot at
making the sale.

Not only that, but you also get the opportunity of
building a long term relationship with them. That
relationship very much depends on you accepting the
resposibility that goes with the trust that they
have placed in you.

What do I mean by that?

It's simple really. When someone trusts you with
personal information, they expect something in
return. It's a transaction, it should be seen as a
fair exchange.

You get access to their in-box on condition that
you send them good quality, accurate and relevant
content.

Your job is to look out for the interests of your
readers. Provide them with information that helps
them to solve their problems, answer their pressing
questions and move them closer to achieving their
dreams and objectives.

And, let's not forget that we're Internet Marketers.
There's no point in building a list unless we can
get a fair return on our investment. That's a part
of the exchange too!

I have over 50 niche based lists, I've discovered a
lot about list building over the years and I've just
finished writing the first volume in a series of
special guides in which I outline what I'm calling
my "List Building Master Class".

I'll tell you where you can pick up a personal copy
in a moment or two. But before you do, I want to
explain something important... Look at how I've set
up the website, pay attention to the process. You
never know, you might find it educational!

Finally, be sure to enter the special code warrior to
get your exlusive Warrior only discount.

OK, here's the link to Volume One:
http://ListBuildingMasterClass.com

To your list building success!

Great!, Ill have to look into this.

Mike Long · 05-26-2009, 01:47 PM

Hi John,

This looks great and I'm ready to pick it up. But I can't seem to get the coupon code to work. Is it just me, or is there a glitch somewhere?

Thanks!
~Mike

grey77 · 05-26-2009, 01:51 PM

Ditto John,
The order form says the discount code "warrior" does not apply to this package.
Let us know, and thanks,
Steve

Hi John

First, I want to thank you for not creating another hyper-graphic subject line in this forum. Actually, your headline stuck out because it was short and to the point. Something many here seem to miss.

Just subscribed to your list and looking forward to reading the first chapter!

Jeff Henshaw · 05-26-2009, 02:49 PM

No, I can't get the discount code to work either.

There must be a gremlin at work in the system.

Jeff.

John Taylor · 05-26-2009, 03:13 PM

Sorry folks.. no glitches or gremlins in the
system.

Just an idiot at the wheel.

The "Testing & Tracking Guy" forgot to test
everything was working properly before going
live. <blush>

The coupon code is working now.

Thanks

John

Jeff Henshaw · 05-26-2009, 03:39 PM

Yes John, I can confirm that the coupon code is working now.

I just downloaded and I am looking forward to reading.

Regards,
Jeff.

Well, if you're going to do something, do it right, my dad always said. If you want to learn list building, (or increasing) go to the MASTER, I always say!

I snapped this up before I got to the bottom of the salespage. I'm following you on twitter, too, and look forward to learning alot.

Thanks!

kenboss · 08-01-2009, 08:42 AM

I can’t believe no-one has reviewed this yet! Maybe John’s promotion doesn’t contain enough hype and fluff – if that’s what you’re looking for, then keep on moving, you won’t have to look far.

But this jewel of a WSO is exactly what it calls itself – a Masterclass. If you’re looking for ‘content density’ then get out of surf mode, get into learn mode and download this now. It’s unbelievable how much choice content John is giving away, yes GIVING AWAY is the only way I can describe it, in 21 pages, for ten bucks. And he’s just getting warmed up - this is only Volume One.

Don’t be misled by the deceptively simple label of Listbuilding. This is so much more than just how to collect opt-ins. So many ebooks, reports etc on this subject run rampant on how to capture those email addresses, but stop there and leave you to get on with it. But what the hell do you DO with a list once you’ve got it? Even ‘targeted’ traffic can be wasted on you, and you on them, if you don’t know how to get inside their heads, talk their language, anticipate their wants, and basically become the best friend they ever had! John treats the subject of ezine authorship as if it were the very lifebood of your business.

Could that be because..... it is?

A while back I started another thread, expressing my frustrations re how newbies are often encouraged to build lists, despite not having a clue what to do with them, and then left to get on with it. I still feel this is a disservice. Of course it’s 1000 times better to have a list than not to have one, but the art of building your relationship with that list (and getting the right people on it in the first place) is an incredibly important aspect. I believe this CAN be taught, but is seldom taught well.

John fills this gap admirably. In this WSO he gives a great example of quantity versus quality, summarizing it as follows (hope he doesn't mind me lifting a quote):

At the time of writing Publisher “A” has over 100,000 subscribers and Publisher “B” has
slightly less than 8,000 subscribers. Publisher “B” has a higher income, invests less time and money on promoting his ezine and has a shorter working week than Publisher “A”.

I know which publisher I’d rather be. Get this now. And John, please hurry up with Volume Two!!!

Cheers
Ken

John Taylor · 08-01-2009, 01:59 PM

Ken,

Thank you.

I really appreciate the feedback.

I'd better get my skates on and get Volume
Two finished!

John

Pedersenmt · 09-24-2009, 08:45 AM

John,

You are SO RIGHT!

I have made my online living the past 10 years with my list. If I did not have a list, I'd be flipping burgers.

No seriously...if you're online to make a living, the NUMBER ONE focus should be building your list. Don't ever be mislead into thinking you can easily sell your ebook (product) right off your site. It's never going to happen.

Now the big question is conversion! We see all these "squeeze pages" now, and I am going to be converting many of my homepages to squeeze pages. But what is REALLY working. Come on BIG IM'ers. Speak up

maverick927 · 09-26-2009, 08:06 AM

Hi John,
You are damn correct and people should definitely learn to build a quality list and build fair relation with their customers.

ralphalt · 11-02-2009, 09:19 AM

John: As a relative newbie to all this--I appreciated your offer to get the first chapter for FREE. Very generous,
Thanks,

winsonlim · 01-07-2010, 10:03 AM

Hi John,
I have not purchased any of your WSO before. When I read the salesletter, it doesn't sounds appealing to me. But when I read some of the reviews, some say it is truly a masterclass and some say Volume 1 is packed with great information.

Can you state the top 3 reasons why I should buy your WSO?

Thanks,
Winson

Hi Winson,

I can't speak for John but I have read his Autoresponder Master Class guide and it really is the best covering of the topic around. At $10 it's an absolute steal.

Plus John's a great guy and if you don't like it he'll happily refund you the money, so you really have nothing to lose by seeing for yourself.

Andy

winsonlim · 01-07-2010, 09:42 PM

Hi Andy,
Thank you for your testimonial for John's product. I really do appreciate it. I have just read his 6 pages free report. It is very informative with case studies. I will purchased it soon to find out more and give my product reviews later on.

Btw I have just visited John's blog, it is indeed very informative and useful. I will decide later whether to sign up as a premium member.

Thanks,
Winson

Hi Andy,
I have just bought both Autoresponder Master Class and List building Masterclass guides. I am very satisfied by the content that John have put up in his guide and it definitely is a detailed source to help me write relationship building emails.

However, I am not exactly satisfied by the short report in the List building Masterclass Guide as I am hungry for more information! I was reading till the end and there says "Wait for Volume 2"

I am looking forward to John's Volume 2 for the List Building Masterclass Guide. And I have also found another squeeze page script that John is selling in WSO now. It is a script whereby visitors whom visit your website will need to fill up the quiz before opt in.

John stated that he has tested this system and it was very effective in getting responsive subscribers. He continue to say that 2 out of 3 visitors will actually participate in the quiz and opt in.

Have you bought this product from John too?

Thanks,
Winson

Hi Winson,

Rather than commenting on individual products of John's let me say this. I've never found fault in anything he has published, it's all exceptional. Further more I have worked with John as well so I can swear to his integrity. If you did buy anything and decide against it I know he will be more than happy to issue a refund.

So please, buy with confidence that you're going to be happy either way. Although how anyone could find fault with anything he's written is beyond me ... it's just that good.

Cheers,

Andy

DoktorBraun · 03-10-2010, 01:19 PM

Hey john, thanks for the video.

Will watch it now.

I've always wanted to build a list!

twocolor · 03-16-2010, 07:24 PM

Hi John,

You are so right...so many people miss this forgetting
to build a relathionship and offer value before pitching...they go
right for the kill and miss it completely.

Yes...It Is Not In The List! But In The "Relationship" You Build With
Your List!

Congratulations on your great offer. Wow...and all the great reviews!
It is so refreshing that Andy swears by your integrity. That says it all!

Continued Success!

Sonia

rogerleads · 07-08-2010, 09:42 AM

There is so much about this list building I don't understand - but the immediate problem is even getting people to get on the list - and having quality contact so they stay on the list - how do you solve both of the problems? In short what could I possible offer some one that would want them to join my list? Don't you work on building trust before some one wants to join your list?

Ronak Shah · 07-19-2010, 03:42 PM

Hey John,

I wish to know what do I offer as a carrot to lure the rabbit in subscribing to my list?

Do you teach that as well within your course?

Ronak.
