I doubt you'll get any opt-ins without something free. I'd definitely try out a free report to collect emails and see how it goes. You're just losing some time then at the most.

If you aren't getting opt-ins then you could always go back to the other plan of using another $100 voucher.

Sending them directly to squeeze page has not worked well for me.

I have found the best results when I send them to a valuable article on my website and I put an optin form at the end of the article. It has worked well for me so far, though I suspect it differs from niche to niche.

Always build your list.

It should be among your chief operatives.

Period.

End of story.

Don't listen to anyone who would suggest otherwise.



How to build your list?

Well that's a topic of conjecture.

One thing that cannot be contested however is the notion that you should be actively acquiring leads at all times.

At all costs.

Do it.

NAO!
