If you want to quickly build a responsive email list in the next 30 days — especially if you're just starting online and don't have a lot of money — the following strategy can get the job done.
Here’s the story:
Several years ago, I was struggling to build my email list and nothing seemed to work.
I wrote hundreds of ezine articles. I tried setting up joint ventures with other list owners. I even added loads of fresh content to my site hoping to attract search engine traffic and leads.
All of these things were helpful, but they didn’t deliver the big "hit" I wanted.
Then one day, I decided to try something completely different. Something entirely obvious …
Hardly anyone was doing what I was going to attempt (must less teaching it).
The simple 30-day email list strategy
What I did was “trade” writing a half dozen press releases to a marketer I knew (who had a big email list) in exchange for plugging my site a set number of times to his list over the course of a month.
Did it work? Oh yeah!
In fact, it only took a few hours to write the press releases, and every time he plugged my site a new batch of leads came in like clockwork. Before long my list was up and running with dozens of fresh, new responsive subscribers.
The total cost? A few hours of my time doing something I enjoyed.
And guess what?
You can do the exact same thing.
You probably have a skill other email list owners in your industry want.
It could be writing … web design … programming … SEO … editing audio/video … building websites … or just about anything a list owner in your industry can use.
If you simply find these email list owners, you can leverage your time and skills to build your list by trading that skill for endorsing your website.
Of course, the "devil" is...
