Email List Building Questions

3 replies
1) What are the pros and cons of first focusing on building a email list 1st of any chosen market before selling them rightaway, would immediate gratification of making money be one of the cons....;>)

2) For those that are google ppc affiliate marketers don't they lose control of building email list since they are going for the warrior kill "the sale 1st" vs building a email list or is there some that 1st capture email addr then takes them to sales landing page, this one additional step could cause to lose sales i would think

3) I have a personal passion small business marketing and alot of information i have compiled throughout the years and knowledge, what steps would you take to market my info to offline small businesses interested in business marketing

4) What are some good ways to build a online list of offline small business owners who would be interested in marketing their business to get more customers

    I am no list building expert, but to me building the list is the easy part. Once you have them, then it's the hard part, forming/building a relationship with them, get trust, ect. I know for me personally, I read e-mails that interest me, give me at least some content and the marketer injects a personality.

    Or you can be like more of the marketers out there and just push promotion after promotion.

    Just my three and 1/2 cents.

    3) I started out marketing to small business owners initially... what you can do is of all the stuff you've written, go to lulu.com Self Publishing - Lulu.com and print paper books on demand (they're cheap).

    When you meet with your client, you can tell them you're an author and they can have a copy of your book as a token of friendship. That will deal with marketing and internet marketing etc.

    This alone will set yourself apart from the rest of people that small business owners meet everyday, trying to sell them something. You have bit more credibility over your competition.

    For 1), 2), 4), I believe you'll find plenty of creative strategies if you just search this forum.

    ppc affiliate marketers may not use the vendor's landing page and use their own squeeze to build their list followed by a redirect to the vendor.
