Monday, early afternoon where I am.
So, let’s start the week off with a good old rant!
There seems to have been a lot of talk recently about making good money online without a mailing list.
Can you really?
Yes - on a one-off JV. But then what?
Yes - if you have REALLY deep pockets and can handle a huge spend on PPC, up front.
No - not if you want to build something long term.
I have never met ANYONE, or even heard of ANYONE who consistantly makes good bucks online without a large list of their own.
If the people who tell you you don’t need one truly believe that, why does EVERY ONE OF THEM require your e-mail
be added to their list before they’ll give you the info?
Why are they using JV’s, PPC, giveaways, etc, to build their lists every way they can?
BECAUSE IT’S THE ONLY WAY TO BUILD A LONG-TERM BIZ FOR YOURSELF ONLINE… PERIOD.
Never, ever pass up a way to build your lists, or to learn new or unique ways to do so - and regularly review
what you do know about it to be sure you’re still building your lists every way you can.
If you’re focused mainly on any other part of your online biz, either change your focus or stop wasting time online and use the time with your family, friends and loved ones.
Sorry to be so blunt, but it really bugs me when I see people who are doing well online giving people the wrong
ideas about what it takes to get there online.
Those raking in the most have the biggest lists, period.
Marlon Sanders has over a million on his list, and NO ONE does better as an individual.
A company named Agora does the big niches, has a list of over 3 million, and made about 270,000,000 bucks online last year.
Starting to get the picture yet?
Don’t opt for the easy way out - it’s called a way ‘OUT’ for a reason.
Use at least 50% of your time online learning about and building your lists.
That’s the best advice I can offer anyone at any stage of their online biz - most of the rest of the great tips only
kick in fully once you have that list started and growing constantly.
If you do that, your business will succeed, period.
If you don’t, then let me be one of the first to bid you a fond ’sayonara’!
End of Monday rant!
