5 List building techniques

Posted by admin

To build your list quickly and effectively you will need to
have some techniques. These are simple and easy to implement and will save you
a lot of time and frustration. All you need to get your list building off to a
good start is an autoresponder and a website. Once you have these set up you
are ready to go.

List building techniques:

 

  • Use
    cost effective website promotions: you can save money and put your list
    building on auto pilot by driving targeted traffic to your website with
    low cost promotions. Here are some standard ones:
  • Test
    all list building methods: this is critical to your success in list
    building.
    • Landing
      pages: The easiest way to do this is to set up landing pages for each
      promotion and monitor traffic and sales from each promotion.
    • Split testing: For
      example your Google Adwords advertisement will have a link going to a
      landing page. You can monitor subscribes with this method. You then have
      another Google ad for the same product going to another landing page and
      you try to make your second ad pull better than the first.
  • Use
    landing pages: landing pages are not only good for testing promotions they
    can also increase your subscribe rate. This is because they are in fact
    mini sales pages. Added to this they will also offer one or more free
    gifts for signing up. This is a great incentive for your visitors to join
    your list.
  • Use
    multiple list building techniques: all the “big guys” in business will use
    multiple ways to build their list. This will ensure a steady stream of new
    subscribers and help you to build your list quickly and efficiently.
  • Split
    your lists for better response: to better pinpoint all your subscribers
    when you make your offers split your lists into highly targeted groups. For
    example if you have a pet site you may want to take a survey and find out
    the interests of your subscribers. You can then split up the list into
    more targeted one for better responses.

 

An important part of list building techniques is retention.
After all there is no point working hard to build a list only to have your
subscribers unsubscribing a week or so later. Here are some ways to keep your
subscribers happy and loyal:

 

·       
If you have a newsletter make sure that it is a
quality publication. Make the content interesting and informative. Cut down the
ads to about 2 per publication. Readers get annoyed at an all fluff no stuff
publication with too many ads and will soon unsubscribe or just not open the
newsletter.

·       
Do not send too many ads to your list. This also
annoys them and leads them to unsubscribe. Instead of sending ads to everyone
just make an announcement list for those who want to hear about new products
and services.

·       
Write or have written good original articles
that are of interest to your subscribers. In this way they will be keen to open
your newsletter and stay on your list.
