How do you build massive Internet Wealth? It's all in the
List...

by Simon Whincop

Ever heard this one before?

You read countless articles, seek endless expert advice and
hear numerous success stories of people building massive
wealth on the Internet with opt-in lists, and you finally
decide to have one of your own. You think you know
everything there is to know about opt-in lists and follow
all the advice to the Tee. Yet you still haven't made a
dime.

You may in fact, be losing money. Maybe you hired writers to
help out with your articles, or you blew hundreds of dollars
in fruitless advertising. Perhaps you even got as far as
building a big list, only to find that a tiny percentage
actually converts to sales.

Which ever way you look at it, you've failed to make a
profit, and after a few months of desperately peering at
your statistics and sales figures, you come to the
conclusion that your dreams of Internet wealthbuilding are
over.

You wonder what wrong. Why have others succeeded where you
have failed? Perhaps you were too hasty, diving straight in
like that. Maybe the product is rubbish, after all. Or maybe
it's you - you're just not cut out for this...

If this scenario sounds at all familiar, read on.

All is not lost, however - don't forget that just because
you emailed people on your list does not mean they'll buy
instantly. As an Internet marketer, you need a bit of
patience!

And, if you've already started an opt-in list and think you
failed, I strongly urge you to follow the following advice,
too. Same thing applies if you're just starting out. The
advice comes in the form of three quick and easy steps:

1) Make sure your product or service is one that people
really need.

And learn all about your product. Many people forget this
vital element of their affiliate business. Do they really
think their subscribers are going to buy something they
haven't bothered to learn about themselves? Not very likely.
Your knowledge and belief about your product, or lack of it,
is transferred onto your customers. Time spent researching
your product thoroughly is time spent wisely.

2) Join lots of forums. There your expert advice and
recommendations will build you an aura of trust . You can
build a base around other forum users, inviting them to join
your opt-in list. They will become your friends, and friends
make good customers. Remember to place a link to your site
on your posts - it will enable them to see what your
business is all about. If you mean what you say, they'll
begin to believe in you and your products. You can increase
your credibility further as well as building more potential
subscribers and customers by writing and submitting articles
and posting blogs .

3) Get a mentor. Forums are great for this too - if you can
find someone who has already launched a successful opt-in
list, they will be able to tell you what to do and what not
to do, as they've gone through it themselves. These people
will be able to point out the many pitfalls and mistakes to
avoid. There is nothing like getting it first hand. Learn
from the mistakes of others!

Building a profitable opt-in list doesn't happen overnight.
It takes great preparation and effort. Opt-in lists have to
be built from scratch and, once built, take some
maintenance. Keep yours organized and manageable. But use it
to Keep your subscribers happy and they'll be willing to buy
from you time and time again. Build your list, build
Internet wealth!
