You have probably heard "the money is in the list" at least
a thousand times. But it is true; the money is in the list.
There is no doubt about it, 99% of people making money
online have an email list. But you already knew that.
What you don't know is how they got those coveted lists of
email addresses that allow them to contact prospects over
and over again.
To be very honest with you, most people who have built a
big email list have their own product. But I know getting
your own successful product is very difficult.
So I want to talk about how you can begin building your
email list as an affiliate. With no product, and no website
of your own.
The first thing you need to do is understand the reason you
are not making as much money as you had hoped with
affiliate programs.
Lets look at a quick real world example. I think it will
help you see what the real problem is with the way most
affiliates try make money online.
Let's say you are promoting printers for a particular
merchant. And let’s say that you referred 700 visitors,
generated the merchant 100 leads and made 5 sales this
month. Not a bad month.
But what if you had that list of 100 leads of people that
are interested in buying a printer? Some of those 100 leads
are going to buy a printer soon, and since your merchant
has the leads, they are likely to buy it from them.
Imagine if you had that list of prospects. You could turn
some of those 100 leads into printer sales next month, and
earn yourself some more commission.
But as it stands right now, you have no way of capturing
those 100 leads yourself. You can only send people to your
affiliate link, and those visitors really do business with
your merchant.
And that's exactly the problem. Every prospect you refer to
any merchant you promote for really becomes their prospect,
and not yours.
But what if there was a way to capture the contact
information from many of the people who click on your
affiliate links.
Now every time you advertise and get a lead or a sale for a
merchant, you would actually be building your email list.
So you are building your email list for the future, and not
just working for pennies giving away leads to your
merchants.
This is just a much better way to promote products as an
affiliate. To find our more about how to do this you need
