'Easy' List Building?

"Easy" List Building?


Seems strange, doesn't it?

You've probably been struggling with it for months, if not
years. And all of a sudden, you're hearing it everywhere...

List Building Made E-A-S-Y !


Is it?

Really?

Well, yes... and no.


Yes, it is easy. No, it is not 'list building' but rather
lead generating.

Is it worth doing?

You decide.


I spent SEVEN MINUTES sending out a note to my list 3 weeks
back about Marvin Haycock's new program, "Bullet Proof List
Building" - http://www.Reach-n-Relate.com/bullet-list/

Today, my 'list' has 79 opt-in leads - and I get to send out
an email once a week.

But get this...

I can email 79 members, NOT just the same ones, but a RANDOM
group of 79 from the entire program membership!


Now *that* is powerful. 79 NEW leads a week can see my
message - and I hope some will become subscribers to my
list over time.

7 minutes. 79 leads. Every 7 days.

Worth it? To me, YES.

= = = =


Now here's a new program with a different twist.

Russ Brunson has designed a new service called
"Residual Opt-in Profits"

From his promo material:

"As those you refer signup, you will be able to
mail more people each week. As those people
refer others, it will grow even quicker. Soon
many people will be building your list!"

Where's the difference?

Russ includes a PRO version - you will be able to
send your message to 2x the members in your list
each week.

And when people you refer upgrade to the pro version,
YOU get $10 per member.

And if you don't like either Bullet Proof List
Building or Residual Opt-in Profits, there's another
kid on the block...

Mike Filsaime's "List Dot Com"

Catchy name - otherwise, appears the same as the two
above.

(the launch is on Oct.3rd, but you can join as a JV
partner before then)

So these are the 3 new programs designed to 'make
list building easy'

* Bullet Proof List Building

* Residual Opt-in Profits

* List Dot Com

How can you intelligently take advantage of them?

Here's what I plan to do:

-> Sign up with all 3 programs

-> Tell at least a few people about it

-> Keep track of my 'list' and see if it grows

-> Send out 1 email a week, inviting prospects to
either sign up to my free ezine, or to download
a no cost report, or otherwise offer them an
irresistible gift in return for opting-in to my
main list

-> Track conversions, try out new variations

-> Keep what works going - and dump the rest

-> Enjoy zero-cost list growth and the viral
effect of having the programs work for me


Here's how a 'clueless' marketer may mess it up:

-> Send out sales pitches and expect to generate
instant profits from 'the list' with the first
few emails

-> Invite everyone and their dog to join up
under them, sending them over-hyped sales copy
building up the programs as the best thing since
sliced bread

-> Expect to set it up and not work on it at all
- and then grow into a downline of 50,000 - or
even a million or more

-> Dream of earning residual income for life and
plan an early retirement - in luxury

-> Give up in a day or two (or a week or two)
when it doesn't bring the unrealistic results
they dreamed about - and then bad mouth the
'system' all over the place


You, my friend, are NOT a clueless marketer. You
are 'in the know' - so don't fall into any of the
traps in the list above.

Use safe-list building programs intelligently -
and laugh your way to list building success, while
the others cry their hearts out!

All success
