Why You NEED to Build an Email List (Real-Life Example)
If you're like most people, you'll GLADLY take the offer, right? I mean, it's FREE, and offers tremendous value.
Three days later you receive an email from the street vendor, "Hey. Did you like the shirt? Yeah? If so, I've got a a special offer for you: I'm currently selling the world's BEST pants. And guess what? They're only $9.95! Offer expires fast so stop on in to claim your pair".
At this point, you're thinking, "What the heck...why not? The shirt was AMAZING, so the pants are probably equally as impressive" And so you purchase them. This, my friends, is "real-life" email marketing at its finest.
Had the street vendor attempted to SELL you the shirt in the beginning, you probably would have politely said "No Thank" and continued walking. But the street vendor was smart- he knew that if he could get you to realize the value of his brand by enticing you with a free product, that you'd be hooked.
The Same Principles Apply in Email Marketing
Why would you ever expect a "cold" customer (one who has no previous affiliation with your brand, product, service, etc.) to buy something from you straight off the bat? That's not the way it works. Using a landing page, you'll want to first "entice" the lead to subscribe to your emailing list by giving away a free product (like an eBooks, free trial, whatever). At this point, assuming that what you're offering was exceptional value, they will be much more comfortable purchasing from you.
I know I often sound like a broken record but I can't stress enough about how important it is to build an email list BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE. Before you launch a product, before you decide to promote affiliate products, before any of that...you need to have a targeted email list set up.
If you're trying to make the most of your time, money, and effort online, email lists are the way to go. They offer the most "bang for your buck". The sooner you realize that, the closer you'll be to making a lot of money online.
Good luck everyone.
