subject: Here's Some Tips For Building Solid Relationships With your List [print this page] If you really desire to make money online fast, then you must not only build your list,but you must build a relationship with that list.
Part of the follow-up process involves going beyond mere promotion. There's nothing that deadens the responsiveness of a list faster than hitting them with the same information, in the same format, over and over again. You've got to build a real relationship, and you've got to keep your subscribers on their toes.In other words, you want to increase their perception of you as a trusted source of high-quality information, and throw in an element of surprise so that they always want to open and read your e-mails.One of the methods for this that I recommend is that of using insertion messages. Insertion messages are just e-mails that you send to your list apart from your preprogrammed, product-focused autoresponder sequences. Let's say you've got a five-part follow-up series for a product. Somewhere in between the messages in that sequence, you want to send out a surprise mailing.The purpose of the mailing is to jolt your subscribers back into full attention by surprising them with a gift. This gift can be anything from a free report to a longer, information-packed article (or a link to a blog post). The key here is you give them a gift in the form of super valuable cent or information. Something they normally would expect to pay for. It's all based on the principle that you do have to give in order to receive. You see,people are much more likely to do business with you when they see that you're truly focused on helping them and not just trying to get them to cough up their money.That said, you really should be in a market where you feel you can help people. f you're just in it for the money and don't really care what product you're selling or who you're selling it to...well, it shows. People can sense this a mile away. The people who join your list do so because they are the experts when it comes to their own interests and concerns.
If you don't share those interests with them, they'll be able to tell. Your lack of interest and experience will show in everything you do. When you don't care, you can't connect, and you really can't write anything more than a shallow follow-up. Your subscribers will know that you don't know what the heck you're talking about. I really can't stress this enough: find a market you can relate to, build a list, and build a solid relationship with that list! By doing this you can make money online faster.
