Internet Marketing is one of the most profitable businesses you could consider doing. There are millions of people on the internet and the majority of them are always looking to purchase new things. Whether its home improvements or products related to website SEO, they are always looking for bargains and deals which will make their life easier.
Marketing Using Email
If you haven’t heard of an e-mail list yet, it’s basically a list of e-mails that an Internet Marketer builds up over time. They collect e-mails of people who sign up through their form and then send out regular e-mails with links to products or services that they gain commissions on. Internet marketing via an e-mail list is one of, if not the most profitable form of marketing. But, as with anything, it’s difficult to begin building an e-mail list from scratch. If you’re unknown on the internet, then why is anybody going to subscribe to your list?
Getting Subscribers
First of all, the easiest way to attract people to join your e-mail list is to offer a free product in exchange. This is typically called a “seedlaunch”. What you’re effectively doing is giving the user something in return, as a reward for signing up to your list. Whether that’s your own product or service, or from somebody else, it really doesn’t matter. What you’re trying to do at this point is build up a list of 200-500 people to which you can start internet marketing. You will need to identify a product that people will be genuinely interested in, and it should also be related to the products which you are going to market later on.
For example, if you’re building an e-mail list targeting Internet Marketers, then why not offer an e-book in exchange for signing up? Write an e-book called “10 Tips For Internet Marketing” and then offer it to them for free. This way, you’re building up your e-mail list with people who are genuinely interested in internet marketing. As a result, they will be more likely to click on your links and purchase products/services through your affiliate links in the future – bagging you tons of commission.
Once you have your initial email list, it’s time to scale it up. Create more products and offer them on a different website for free. You’ll begin to notice that your list is building daily and before you know it, you have an e-mail list of 10,000 people which you can use to literally generate cash on demand through affiliate links and seo offers.
