Hey Everyone, I just ran across this note from successful Internet Marketer Eric Louviere and thought it was important enough to pass along.
For those of you wondering what you should be doing on a daily regular basis, read on!
Many people get into this market and attempt to make money online from home. Although most will fail and never see any income at all, those who succeed, mostly do so by simply building and managing an email subscriber list.
You see, there are a multitude of magic buttons and shiny objects to buy out there that can send you in all kinds of direct…ions in this business… but chances are, if you check the last 5 things you bought in this market, at least 4 of them you bought from an email you got… if not all 5 of them came from someone emailing you and recommending you buy something.
Therefore, no matter what you attempt to do in this market, perhaps the most popular technique (that works) of all is simply building and managing a list. In fact, I’ll go as far as saying that if that’s all you focused on (list building)… you’d hit your income goals faster than you currently realize.
Because you see, most people out there will continue chasing those magic buttons, while you’ve been busy building a list. And, a list is an asset. A list is leverage you can utilize to earn yourself a ton of money, easily. Imagine simply sending out an email and all these people rushing to buy what you are recommending. Can you picture that?
Well, that’s how most of the six and seven figure marketers I know do it. They build, manage and grow their email subscriber lists. They brand themselves to that list, they warm that list up to them, they give them free content and they sell them offers.
Lastly, most will still never fully focus on list building. They’ll continue to ignore it or get so distracted by all the shiny objects and pipe dreams that they lose track of the most obvious way to make money there is in this business, list building.
I can survey 10,000 people in this market and 9,000 of them probably still do not have a squeeze page up and online building them a list. I can then survey that same group of 10,000 people a year from now and the numbers will be about the same. Most will not have a list or even be focusing on it. However, all 10,000 would have bought shiny objects throughout that year… and more surprisingly, most will have put in at least 15 hours per week on their “make money from home” dreams (in front of their computers) without any results to brag about. Yes, even two years later, it would remain the same.
However, those who focused on list building & management would be the one’s bragging about how much money they made… and how easy it was to earn it.
Whoever first said, “The money is in the list”… needs a trophy or medal or something because that person was freaking right on! Got a list?
