Really need help with list building-- what should i do right now while waiting?

7 replies
Ok so i just started list building in the IM niche(got squeeze page and auto responder and everthing), becasue everyone kind of recommends newbies to do this-- build a list, and i already scheduled solo ads to go out at 10th of Feb, my question is what do i do in the mean time while i wait, what can i do in the mean time do drive traffic? Will article marketing work well if you are promoting a squeeze page? Thanks for the help

        I have got a couple of warriorforum and also safe swaps and think I got some through Skype group.

        Someone here might be able to give you some good advice on how to pick the right solo seller not all of them are bad but then if you look at it the other way why would they be selling solos all the time if there list is so good.

        I'm personally avoiding solos for awhile and like you going to find other methods
        Which bring more guaranteed targeted subs.

        Thanks

    You can do article marketing. If you're interested in article marketing then I suggest you follow Sean Mize. He practically built his whole business through driving traffic using article marketing to his squeeze page.

    You can also do the following:

    - Make Youtube videos that link back to your squeeze page
    - Make forum posts and have a link to your squeeze in your signature
    - Build a blog/site about your niche and SEO it

    That's plenty to get you started I think.

    Hi there,

    There are so many stuffs you can do.
    1. Forum posts with signature ( what you are now )
    2. Create documents for sharing,such as Slideshare. You can use a chapter of your offer as contents
    3. Create videos for YouTube, Vimeo
    4. Articles marketing, not so effective in short term
    5. Media buying, such as banners, or
    6. PPC, it is the most effective. You can run your campaign immediately
    7. Create a website based on your niche
    8. Look out for better affiliate product
    9. Sell your services such as SEO, articles writing, etc, you need to get some incomes. This is a long term business

    I can go on and on.
    If you need help, you can PM me. I try my best to help you.

    Cheers.

    forum posting will most likely be your best option. Find the one aspect of Im you are the most knowledgeable in, and focus on helping people.

    Of course if you don't know the answer don't make one up, but speak from your own personal experience in an area you are good at. Focus on gaining some specialized knowledge, get really good at one specific area and help answer questions in the forum on that topic
