List building is a very powerful way of building your business. It allows you to gather hundreds or even thousands of targeted prospects that you can build relationships with and market to over a course of time. To build your list in as little time as possible, there are some tips you can follow.
Squeeze Page
A successful list building campaign starts with a good squeeze page. Your squeeze page should include a catchy headline that promotes curiosity or excitement. The more enticing your headline is, the more clicks onto your squeeze page you will get. Also, the content on your squeeze page should be short and concise. Outline the benefits of opting in to your mailing list and give them a reason to do it.
Your squeeze page should offer some sort of incentive or freebie for opting in as well. Be wary of the resale rights products that are out on the Internet today as most of these have become saturated and outdated. Instead, offer them something free that is relevant to your business such as a free product or informational report.
Professional Autoresponder
Investing in a professional autoresponder is fundamental to good list building. Do not be tempted to use the free autoresponder services that are out there. Although they are free, they are really not that good. Most do not offer tracking, open rates and other important features. Plus, most of these free autoresponder services are "fly by the night" and end up disappearing overnight. When this happens, there goes your list. A professional autoresponder will help you to create informative email campaigns, landing pages and offer campaign statistics.
Driving Traffic
Once you have your email campaign set up, it is time to drive traffic to your squeeze page and get people to fill out your opt-in form. There are many different ways to find people to join your list. Some ways are article marketing, blogging, forum signatures and participation, online classifieds, ezine marketing, blog commenting and social network sites.
Let your imagination go when promoting your squeeze page. You obviously want to go to places that are relevant to what you are promoting so that your traffic is targeted. Message boards and groups are a good place for this. The key is to be consistent on a daily basis driving traffic to your squeeze page. Not everyone is going to fill out your opt-in form. It is just like any other marketing campaign (it's a numbers game). The more you are out there spreading your squeeze page URL all over the Internet, the more subscribers you are going to get.
