<p><strong>Offer Something That Is Free And Unique</strong></p>
<p><span id="optspots">Your course can contain text, audio, graphics&#8211;even video&#8211;whatever suits the material you&#8217;re delivering. Just send your subscribers a link to the web page where your course can be found. Unlike e-mail, your website doesn&#8217;t put any restrictions on how much rich media you can feature.</span></p>
<p>Although you are giving something free, be generous!</p>
<p>When your customers discover the stuffs they received are of good content and unique, they will gradually come back and thus you build up trust and rapport with your customers.<br />

<strong>Offering Members-Only Specials</strong></p>
<p>One of the easiest ways to encourage visitors to opt in with their personal information is to offer them a chance to save money. It can be as simple as something like this: &#8220;Do you want to receive our special MEMBERS-ONLY offers? Every month we bring exclusive deals to our subscribers that you can&#8217;t get anywhere else!</p>
<p>To start saving now, just sign up below.&#8221; This is a great way to drive opt-ins and <span id="optspotsa">sales</span> and to make your potential customers feel appreciated before they even buy your products.</p>
<p>There are many different opt-in incentives available&#8211;you just need to apply a little creativity to choose the one that&#8217;s right for you and your target market. The first step in creating a solid opt-in strategy is to consider the people you want to opt in to your list. Just as the best businesses are created in response to the needs of a specific niche market, so are the best opt-in offers. With some customizing, any one of these ideas could build you a highly targeted opt-in list.</p>
<p>Without a targeted market, you might be building up a list of people that would not buy anything from you. So when you concentrate on a targeted market, the chances are you are already on the right path to earning a stable flow of income.<br />

<p><strong>&#8220;Money is in the list&#8221;</strong></p>
<table align="right">
<tr>
<td><!--adsense--></td>

<p>How many times have you heard people telling you that especially in seminars and emails sent by money making experts.</p>
<p>For those who are don&#8217;t know what is a list, a list is a number of people you can contact constantly through their emails.  Is that all? So easy?</p>
<p><span id="more-42"></span>Yes.. It sounds easy and even after you setup your squeezepage and autoresponder accordingly, you might still face some problems building up a list overnight.</p>
<p>Here are some of the problems:</p>
<ul>
<li>Don&#8217;t know how to start building a list</li>
<li> Not much opt-ins even after you spent big bucks in Google Adwords</li>
<li>Large increase in people unsubscribing after they get their Freebies or reports</li>
<li>Collected a big list of people but they are not responsive to your emails and offers</li>
<li>Not enough money to invest on advertisements</li>
</ul>
<p>If these questions are those that you are facing, don&#8217;t you think it&#8217;s time to solve it rather than delaying? Problems come back to you in the end if you don&#8217;t solve them totally.</p>
<p>I will write more about how you can build a responsive list in my future posts.</p>
