Hey everyone. I just wanted to give a quick post on a topic that seems to haunt almost everyone who tries it. It’s list building. I’ve been working online as a graphic designer for a while now and admit I haven’t done my due diligence in creating and maintaining a mailing list. Only recently have I been giving away a graphics pack to build my list.
I came across something that has given me 53 subscribers in just a few hours and by the time this post is up for 24 hours I will let you know even how much more it has grown.
As many of you know, Alex Jeffreys was my mentor and helped me to be able to quit my day job to go full time online. I have sat through two of his coaching courses and watched as he transformed hundreds of peoples lives for the better. Alex is not only my mentor, he’s my friend.
As this year winds down, Alex has decided to give what I consider the best freebie of the year and I’m not just talking about what Alex has given, I’m talking about the entire online marketing community as a whole. Alex doesn’t just give you a bunch of rehashed marketing junk but what he’s giving away right now is actual coaching for free.
As I look at my last blog post, I realize it has been a week since I wrote it. I have been spending the extra time I have creating graphics and redesigning my blog. As I go through other Alex Jeffreys student blogs, I see that they are busy posting and getting content that will draw visitors to their sites. I want to publicly say that I’ve dropped the ball.
Man, last night was awesome! We listened in on four solid hours with Alex Jeffreys and I have five full pages of notes to go through. Module 6 is where we are at the moment and Alex called it “Triple Threat Affiliate.” This apparently is the name Andrew Fox gave Alex after he showed him how he doubled his income without growing his list by using unique tactics in his email marketing campaign.
In this post I would like to let you know of some of the ways I have seen people building their lists of opt in subscribers. Over the years I have filled in many opt in forms and paid close attention to how my name was acquired.
In order to get a free report or newsletter is was required that I fill in an opt in form. This method gets lots of sign ups because of the fact that free material was offered. It is very important that the free material is of great value to the prospect.
