Good day, reader.
I'm going to tell you right now, that this post is long...but that is because I'm actually going to teach you something.
If you wish to, you can print this post, and hold on to it, re-read it, pass it on to a friend, whatever. But, you're definitely going to learn something within the next 5-10 minutes.
OK, I want to explain something to you. It seems like a never ending process for me. All the time, I get emails from newbies asking about the quickest way to make money online.
It's almost like a sense of desperation with some folks...
Trust, I totally understand the urgency to really make some quick dough. You might have some financial issues that you need to take care of.
* You might have overdue credit card bills from Christmas...
* Your rent might be late...
* You might need an operation...
* You probably just lost your job...
* Your child might need a medication that you can't afford...
* Your car might be crapping out on you...
* Your electric and heat might be getting shut off soon...
I can go on and on and on, and really hit home. Trust me, I've been there. I know it sounds like what every marketer tells you...but the situation is real. It's really difficult to prosper and even
get on our feet nowadays.
Hell, in the U.S., the economy is so bad, that the President is pushing Congress to pass a bill to hand out $800 to every working adult in the nation...with hopes that we'll take that $800 and immediately spend it. They think that this will 'spark' the economy once again.
In my mind, it's going to backfire, and everyone is going to use that money and put it towards paying off their high amounts of debt amassed from the credit and housing crisis here in the U.S.
Now, I know I have friends and students who come from other countries like the UK, Canada, Singapore, Netherlands, EVERYWHERE. That fact is, even though they're not suffering from the problems the U.S. is going through, they might have their own personal problems. And the fact is, these personal problems are the reason why the U.S. is in so much financial trouble.
The personal problems, lead to the abuse of credit cards, and the abuse of home equity and other loans.
Personal problems lead people to dig themselves further in debt looking towards internet marketing as a way to dig themselves out of the crisis.
Yesterday, I sent a message out to my long-time students, and not my newcomers...who are still trying to learn the basics.
My offer yesterday was for squeeze page templates and graphics. The reason why I suggested these yesterday, is because today I'm going to let the cat out of the bag, and tell you the easiest way to generate some quick wealth. The cool thing is...it's good for short-term and long-term income. If you're interested, drop a line to my support center.
So, how do you score short and long-term profits online?
The answer:
BUILD A MAILING LIST
That's it! And it's not all that hard to do. I really want to help you out...so I'm giving you a product that I usually offer as a bonus to "Cheap Affiliate Profits'...
It's called "Your Optins Suck!" and even though the title might be ballsy, the content is still rich, quick and straight to the point (in my opinion).
You can download the PDF directly from HERE
It's a 16 page PDF all about the real deal with email marketing and using squeeze pages. I know I should've given this to you yesterday but I wasn't thinking clearly.
Now, after you read this guide, you'll see why building a mailing list is the one of the easiest ways to generate some quick and long-term profits. I know marketers who solely rely on their list
everyday. You can spot these guys by how they flood you with ads, but no content. Do me a favor, and check every single email you've received from an internet marketer today.
In that email, did they teach you anything? If they didn't, then they're not looking out for your best interest. They're only looking out for your wallet. And although I understand that internet marketing is a business, you'll damage your business if you don't treat your subscribers right.
That's something I learned from Brian T. Edmonson, author of '15K in 7 Days'.
But that fact of the matter is, building a mailing list, and treating them right, is the key to short-term and long-term profit. It doesn't matter what niche you're in...the email mentality is
still the same. Follow the code, and you'll succeed.
There are three obstacles with building a list...
1) Getting an autoresponder.
2) Traffic
3) Getting them to actually sign up
Now, getting an autoresponder is easy. If you already have your own website (besides a blog from blogger.com or wordpress.com or myspace.com), you can get a free reputable autoresponder from phplist.com It's freeware. Otherwise, there's always Aweber or
Prosender or Getresponse which you can pay $20 for.
Getting traffic is also easy. I have a list of 75 Online Classified Ad websites you can post an ad for your squeeze page/opt-in page.
You can view it (and bookmark it once you get there) HERE
You can also use traffic exchanges like ts25.com to get traffic for free.
Now getting them to signup is the harder part. I did find a tool for $7 that allows you to do the following with your squeeze pages:
* Limit the number of subscribers.
* Limit the amount of time, they're allowed to subscribe.
These two reasons alone can build your list quick, because you create a sense of urgency for someone to sign up. With most squeeze pages, everything is free so they can get your to signup. Free stuff is deemed less valuable in our thoughts...and by creating a sense of urgency, you're immediately adding value to your offer.
You can also:
* Get real-time reporting of traffic for your squeeze page campaigns
* Track keywords from Google, Yahoo and MSN that bring you traffic
* Get real-time conversion ratios between different campaigns that you run.
In the end, you really get three squeeze page tools in one, that'll help you build and properly manage your mailing lists.
Like I said, it's only $7 and probably the best thing you could ever get if you want to build a mailing list quickly.
Everything else I've mentioned is free: getting an autoresponder and getting traffic. So for $7, I think that this tool is worth every single one of the 700 pennies they're asking for...especially when the main features of this tool is to build a list QUICKLY.
It's called 'Optin Motivator' and you can get it HERE
It literally took me a year to finally get 1000 subscribers to my mailing list. Don't let this happen to you, too. Build your list quick. Once you do, you can promote affiliate offers, launch new
products, direct them to articles embedded with Adsense ads, banners, etc.
Now do you see why you need to build a list quickly?
'Optin Motivator' will definitely help you build your list quickly, and help you overcome your financial problems in record time.
Like I said, you can get it HERE
Good luck to you! And if you have any questions, visit my online support center.
Stay warm,
