What is List Building?

Posted on the 30 May 2013 by Zafar @seompdotcom

List building is the process of attracting niche targeted leads and transform them into buying customers. It’s all about your ability to market your free products on a squeeze page to tempt people to leave their email address for your free gift. But that’s only a fraction of what is involved in successful list building.

What you really need to do is to create an outstanding value proposition that people perceive as vital for their business or life. It’s not necessarily about how much something is worth but more about how much people think it’s worth.

The real value of your information product is determined by who you give it to (your targeted audience). The only guaranteed way to tremendous success in list building lies in by giving a high demand product at first for free to people who are desperate to get it.

The better you are able to represent unique values and offer real solutions to real problems, the better you will do in list building. And list building is not about selling and the people who excessively sell in list building they don’t make a lot of money. Yes, you need to continually market to your list.

Yes, you make money by selling your own products or affiliate programs. But don’t forget that the real money is in the relationship to your list. You can establish a trusting relationship to your list by giving them outstanding value at first for free and then for a comparable low price tag. Give them bonuses, give them gifts, give them training, simple give them more than they pay for the product.

Like for anything else, you need to approach the right mindset to succeed in list building.

What is the right mindset and how can you approach it?
When you are just starting off things look easy and you are very enthusiastic to make money online. However, this initial state of excitement does not last for a very long time, particularly if you are not making money within the first week. Most people who start off are simple not making any money for at least the first few weeks.

To keep going after the initial excitement stage is over, you need a damn good reason for what you are doing on the internet. Just saying that you do what you do for the sake of money is not good enough to make it full time. You need to know what you will do with the money, how much you intend to earn a month, where you are going to live, what avenues of online marketing you intend to master and much more.

Goal setting is one of the most mandatory as well as most neglected factors when it comes to succeeding with list building. I recommend you to invest some hours to plan everything you want to accomplish within the next 12 months with list building. Write down why you want to earn more money, what your benefits are, what you will do with the money and what kind of income you aim for.

Most newbies skip this step just to figure out a few months later that they forgot to do something far more important than actually building their list!

With that being said, make sure to take the time to sit down for creating a serious goal setting plan.
