The Very First 'Basic' - Build a List

Hey Isyaias!

How are you today?

You know, when I was undergoing military
training they had a motto there called
"Excel Through Basics" and although
it sounds very simple - it actually rings
very true.

And today, I want talk about list building
as one of the 'basics'.

----------------------
Why List-building?
----------------------

Lets have a look at the ENDS of list
building first. With a list you could:

1. Easily promote products for quick
affiliate cash...

2. Leverage on your list to build JV
relationships...

3. Easily come out with NEW product ideas
from your list...

4. Train and mentor your list...

And that's just a few of the many many
benefits of list-building!

As an affiliate marketer, if you don't have a
list you're probably promoting your products
through Adwords, articles & stuff like that...

...those can be profitable BUT these things
leave you without control!

You can't control when Google's gonna slap you,
you can't control how high your article rank on
Google...but if you have a list - You are
in total control.

And with a list, you'll NEVER run out of
a pool of hungry, targeted prospects.

--------
Caveat
--------

Never ever ever send only offers after offers
after you've built your list. You're destroying
your list by doing so!

Ok, a few steps for you to start off building
your site :

1. Create/get/buy/ a report on internet
marketing. Make SURE you've the rights to
give it away if you got it for free or bought
it.

2. Set up simple 'squeeze' page on your
website that will allow the person to download
the ebook after they have opted-in.

3. Make an offer after they have signed up.

4. Milk for more profits in the backend.

I'll go over each detail with you in the next
few mails.

For now your *assignment* would be to get some
ebooks, e-reports to giveaway. Simple enough?

I'll check back to see how you're progressing
in 24 hours time :)

Talk soon.

Best regards,
Dxxxx
