Introduction
I’ll be the first to say that there are dozens and dozens of list building courses out
there.
Some of them are great- and some of them suck. I mean- really suck.
But this isn’t one of those sucky ones. Instead, this is what thousands of the best
internet marketers are doing on a daily basis.
These methods have stood the test of time, will get you thousands of high quality
leads, and help you build a solid foundation for your business.
So without further ado, let’s get into this bad boy.
What Most List Building Courses Teach
“Get a PLR product in your niche, set up a squeeze page, and give the PLR report
away for FREE when people opt in to your site!â€
Yeah, right.
That’s what everyone and their mother is telling you to do. And while it does
work, every single day it loses a little bit of effectiveness.
Don’t get me wrong- this method still gets marketers a LOT of leads every single
day. But there are a few issues with this method.
For one thing- most marketers aren’t giving a good reason for why they’re giving
this report away for free.
Is it because you’re just trying to be a nice guy/gal?
Are you seeing what people think about the report?
The bottom line is- what’s in it for you? I mean, why do you want me email
address, anyways?
You see- when people really start to think about what they’re seeing on these
squeeze pages- and click away- you just lost a potential lead.
Another reason why this method isn’t the best is that you get TONS of freebie
seekers. What’s a freebie seeker? Someone who is a taker. They take, take, and
take some more. They like to take everything that they can- but NEVER give back.
Even though these people make your list look fluffy, they never buy anything. And
if they don’t buy anything, your business isn’t benefiting from having them on
your list.
So far, the traditional methods don’t work as well because you get freebie seekers
and **probably** fairly low conversion rates on your squeeze pages.
Why else is the old school method the WRONG way to do it?
Because unless you have a one time offer set up to appear right after they sign in,
you have to drive ALL of the traffic yourself!
What I mean by that is that you can’t get anyone else to send the traffic to you.
You will never be able to get affiliates which are a MASSIVE source of traffic.
In fact, lots of 7 figure marketers will tell you that affiliates are their #1 source of
traffic.
So if you want affiliates driving traffic to your squeeze page, you better have some
kind of offer set up.
Which begins to lead us to what really works…
