Build Squeeze Page, Buy Solo, that simple?

If you can get all this done... YES.

However building a relationship... and selling by email sounds easier than it actually is

Not to mention that not all solos are created equally...

i just did exactly that... first squeeze page... first solo... decent conversion rate and some sales that already have paid for the solo ad... so far so good!

Ha hah, and therein lies the whole enchilada!!

...The "whatever."

The "whatever" has been the demise of many people.

Having a Product (a.k.a sales funnel) with just the right amount of helpful content and information along with the right solutions to problems of subscribers and learning how to convey all this in a timely and effective manner to these subscribers and continuing to do this over an extended period of time..
well that is a big "whatever".


Simple?? YES.

Easy ??...HELL NO !!

It does have potential to make you money this way. But, I would remember to understand who your target audience is first. Simply driving traffic to a squeeze page and getting subscribers is not good enough. First research your customers to understand what unsatisfied need they might have. Then you need to address these key areas in your marketing to help them solve their problems.

It can make you money but you would need to keep testing, testing and testing some more. Just stay focused and keep at it UNTIL it turns you a profit.

The answer is absolutely yes, but not as easy as you might think it is.
You have to understand traffic and conversion.
Solo ads are one way to get traffic, but is your squeeze page good enough to convert?
That's where testing comes into play.
After that, as you mention, yes, you have to build a relationship with your list and occasionally send them affiliate offers (preferably in the same niche your list opted into).
I wouldn't send emails daily to your list unless your list finds your email of tremendous value. The emails that I look for, open, and save from marketers don't come in daily.

This is the fundamental of list building, in any niche, not just Make Money Online/Internet Marketing.

All of this is good, and it will give you some results,
now you must be patient, results will not come with a click of a mouse like many state.

you need to get in to trial and fail mode until you actually get in to some considerable results, once you are there, and you found a good converting method, scale it up, even think about off line advertising, and keep doing it all over again...

most important... you will fail a lot to find the correct way of doing things, just be patient you are already on the right path.

keep it up! take care

If you have a lot of money, the steps that you outlined would pretty much be the blueprint for the typical solo ad-driven make money online campaign.

However, if you want to save money and you want to get maximum return on effort, I would suggest that you focus on using content marketing.

What I mean by this is you build a solid blog that focuses on your niche and then you develop solid relationships with other websites that send traffic to your site.

You develop these solid relationships to guest post.

This takes a little bit longer, but it's also cheaper.

Most importantly, it gives you a tremendous amount of control.

You have to remember that the linchpin in the solo ad model is the quality of the websites that you're getting the solo ad from.

Considering the huge amount of fraud and inflated claims out there, it's very easy to get burned.

It doesn't take much effort to do a search on this forum for posts made by people complaining that they can't make any money off the huge amount of money they spend on solo ads.

Unless you have a huge amount of money to subsidize your learning curve, I would step away from the blueprint that you spelled out.

Instead, I would focus more on content marketing and brand-building focus and a list-building system, and take it from there.

Your investment would be your time.

The good news is the more time you invest in this process, the more efficient you will become.

Also, you would learn how to convert your traffic better.

As the old saying goes, there's more than one way to skin a cat.

If it makes money, cool. Alot of solo vendors are increasing their prices these days. My only question would be, how are you going to make money with affiliate offers after someone has bought from you? Because you won't receive the customer information as an affiliate. Unless the affiliate offer is a recurring income product, how will you earn more after each sale?

Those actions are just the tip of the iceberg. Building a relationship with your list is the key to having success online. Emailing your list regularly is definitely beneficial to building a relationship with your list. But, I would also add that you need to communicate with your list using multiple channels such as through your blog, social media, YouTube, etc. Your list need to know that you are a real person. They will grow to like you and thus consider your recommendations whenever you decide to suggest products, services, etc.
