Email Marketing

How many times have you heard “the money is in the list” and thought to yourself “that’s easy for YOU to say. I don’t even have two subscribers to rub together!”

I can tell you from my own business experience that regularly communicating with people via email builds trust and credibility – and once that trust and credibility are built up, it’s MUCH easier to make sales.

Here’s a screenshot from a few emails I sent to one of my lists this past Christmas. The emails were to announce a Christmas “sale” for an information product I sell in a farming niche (yes, farming. It’s an ebook and audio interviews teaching famers how to raise a particular kind of farm animal):

This handful of emails (which I’ll tell you more about in a minute) was to a small list, without any formal “launch” process, JV partners, or affiliates. I generated these sales just by sending a few emails to one list.

In this post I’m going to show you how to start building a list of your own, so you can start nurturing the relationships that lead to cashflow.

But first, let me take a minute to explain a few reasons why email marketing is so powerful.

It took me a while to realize that, but now I have an email opt-in box on every one of my sites. And when a visitor to one of my sites gives me their email address, they automatically start receiving emails that I’ve set up through my autoresponder.

Confused? If this all sounds like Greek to you, check out the video above. In the video I take you through:
