    I would hope that I had some money in this case because I would run solo ads and try to build that list up. With no cash though...it may not happen in 3 days.

    I would simply create a YouTube video of the man holding the gun to my head and state that I would die within 3 day if they don't subsribe to my list. Though, I shouldn't forget to create a FREEBIE the subscribers get on sign up.. Otherwise I a lot of people would just wait for a new YouTube video from the man holding a smoking gun

    I'd create a campaign...

    Day One:

    * Find a desperate market. It would have to be a market I know well; in 3 days, there's no time to research. It would need to be a large market too...

    * Find something to sell them (nothing happens until you SELL something... that's what IM is. That is, an affiliate product to promote (no time to create your own product).

    * Create a list.

    * Brainstorm possible freebies.

    * Make a list of sites/ blogs to include as partners in the campaign.

    Day Two:

    * Create the draft of the freebie. Make it short. Cover just ONE mind-blowing thing the desperate market needs.

    Include affiliate link in freebie.

    * Contact the partner sites. Offer them a guest article (include article titles.)

    Also offer them a review/ writeup/ link to the product of their choice in the freebie. AND offer them a link on the Thank You page subscribers reach after signing up.

    (You need to make it worth the partners' time.)

    Day Three:

    * Finalize the freebie. Post it online, get the link.

    * Hope that you've received at least three acceptances from partners.

    * Create a super-fast squeeze page with freebie benefits, sign up etc.

    * Write and send the three articles, with link to the signup page.

    Hope they publish quick!

    Finally, keep your fingers crossed for 1,000 subscribers... :-)

    Cheers

    Angela

      How tight ? I mean $100 can be a lot of money for some reading your post, and some consider $1000 to be a bargain. Specify

    Massive forum posting, blog commenting and merciless adswapping 24 hours a day will do the trick. A trip to the local hospital may however be inenvitable.

    I would seriously analyze what I did in my life that brought me into this position of life and death, if I did not get 1,000 subscribers.

    I think it's best not to do business with the mafia if at all possible.

  • In my case I will first assure there are no bullets inside
    Then, if there are some, I will try to move forward, also if it is not easy starting from zero.

    I will build up a high quality WSO to give away for free upon autoresponder registration. Then ask for a list swap with other marketers distributing free products.
    This will got your 1000 contacts in three days, but this type of list have probably the 0.2% of response. But you saved your life

    See you,
    Alessandro

    Start an impassioned thread here telling fellow Warrior's to subscribe via my squeeze page within 72 hours or I will die.

    My first post here, but, I thought this was the "warrior" forum? lol Warriors do not accept allowing others to dictate when or how they should die. So if someone had a gun to my head and gave me access to a computer, getting 1,000 subscribers should be easy, put an ad up on craigslist that says: "Enter your email here to watch me die".

    Not only would this produce at least 1,000 subscribers, but I'm pretty sure law enforcement would get involved pretty quickly.

    Anyways, this looks like a great forum. I joined yesterday because I heard this was a great place for Solo Ads. If anyone has any great recommendations, that would be golden. I understand I get what I pay for, but I have a budget of about $20 to $50 to start, my short term goal is to be able to generate 10-20 quality leads per day, starting with solos and gradually expanding to other marketing strategies like PPC.

    Thanks in advance

      Since we're talking life or death, with the only requirement being a list of 1,000 emails within 72 hours, I'd go to someplace like Mechanical Turk and buy 1,000 emails...

      Then I'd ask the gunmen about their next of kin...

    Method 1 # I would have made a lengthy - useful - new - innovative guest post on a high traffic blog with thousands of feedburner readers with a link back to my website where i would put-up a tantalizing offer to beta test my new course or some system and i would run a count down clock for three days, and make the visitors feel if they do not sign up they are missing something valuable.

    After they sign up, send them to a page where they can download bonuses only if they share the link to my landing page on facebook or twitter (there are many scripts available to do this).

    Method 2 # Submit press releases to top press release sites.

    Method 3 # Pay someone (in same niche) with thousands of twitter followers to tweet about my offer. Then would have tried the same with facebook.

    Method 4 # Approach vendors in my niche and ask them to add my offer as bonus to his or her buyers. (Difficult though - but well worth the try). Do this with as many vendors as much as possible.

    I would kick him in the gro- wait what?



    But really, the first thing I'd do is get a massive loan from the bank, which I'll then use to run a plethora of solo ads every single moment I could spare.

    Or I could just ask a "guru" and ask him to lend me 1000 of his upteen thousand billion trillion emails that he generated in one week in his sleep while also working 15 minutes per day.
    (Now wouldn't that be a good headline for a proportionally bad product?)
