List Building CHEAT SHEET
I see many posts here giving advice on list building. However, many of the tips and strategies shared are normal boring technqiues many have already heard of (articles, twitter, SEO, PPC etc.).
I'm not trying to diss those people who took the time to share those useful strategies here. In fact, i really appreciate them for doing so. But what i wanna share today is very different - It's a list building cheat sheet.
To me, a cheat sheet is something that speeds things up for you, and shows you shortcuts to achive your objectives.
It's like a game hack/cheat, and thus its name "cheat sheet".
So i'm not gonna be telling you about those normal list building strategies you already know. There are more than plenty in this section and also in the war room.
What i will be sharing instead is some ninja list building tactics that NOT many use, and is in fact very deadly in helping you build your list in real quick time.
I'm not claiming to be some expert in this, and some of the tactics you may already know, but in my opinion, these stuff are used by few people out there, but yet promise great results in a short time frame.
Now lets's dive in...
1) syndicated bonuses
This was a technique taught to me by my mentor when i first started in list building, and i've used it with tons of success from the start. Never failed me.
What you do is find 3-4 partners in your niche, and form a syndicate. You can easily do so via forums and hangout places for people in your niche.
You then add one another's opt-in page link to your respective TY pages as an "unannounced bonus".
Make sure that all the partners you choose have viable products that get customers consistently, and their products are also related to your squeeze page bribe.
If the product is an evergreen one (gets customers almost daily), then you will enjoy new subs to your list daily, on autopilot
2) Do a product launch, but with a twist
Yes. This is my favourite of all the techniques. This may take a little more effort than the above tactic, but the leads you get in one day can come in thousands.
Reason being that when you do a product launch, your product will be spread around by many Jv partners, and thus you will get known in the market. Even people who are not on your JV partners' lists will hear of you, and sign up to your list.
The twist i like to do here is offer 90-100% commissions for all my affiliates and JV partners, so they promote like crazy for me. I've not tried this in the IM niche yet, but this tactic has worked like a charm for me in non-IM niches so far. Will probably try it in IM soon.
I don't worry about profits of mine as these people coming onto my list are paying customers, so they're very hot and recpetive to my offers. I usually make money by offering recurring membership programs on the backend or upsell
3) Solo ads
This is the most common of all the 3 tactics, so i left it as the last. You can search the WF joint ventures section for offer on solo ads
But many people i know only buy solo ads on a one-off basis, so they don't make much. Make it a habit to buy a few solo ads every month, and put all these leads through a proper conversion funnel to make sales.
Of course this method requires some startup cash, so you may need to use the above 2 tactics and get some money form them first, before using this.
Howver i still recommend you do this when you can, as it saves me a ton of time and effort to build leads, and i can focus more energy and time to conversions and marketing, which is where the main profits lie.
Okay those are my ninja list building tactics which i consistently use every day, week, and month to build my list. I dont see many people using it, and so i reckon you give them a try. You will see your list size supercharge in real quick time
Cheers!
