Ok you want to make money with your online business. Unfortunately after reading many articles, many experts advice, many success stories of people who are making a good fortune with their opt-in lists, you are still not making the profit you are waiting for.

When you examine the statistics your last sales you see they are not following your earning goals. Your profits are not covering your expenses so that you are losing your very hard earned money.

Something could have gone wrong. You are informed that others have success where you have failed. Your mistake could be you are offering
a product or service that you have made assumption to be popular and could earn you money. But when you send out your sale letters your prospects don’t place their order as quickly as you are looking for.

If you are among the people who are still struggling to get more from your opt-in list or if you are starting to build your list empire, I would like to share with you these 4 steps to your profitable opt-in list.


1) You are an affiliate marketer you are promoting other people’s product or service. First of all you must find a product or service that your prospects want and need. You need to well learn about your choice to offer an expert point of view by doing good research.
It’s better to find a niche that you have interest in which you have some expertise. It would be easy to sell to the people who have the same interest and need as yourself.
You’ll join to your offers some promotional material that your prospects and subscribers could use and even spread among their friends.


2) After choosing your product or service your next endeavor is to establish a trusty relationship with your customers. You will broadcast articles about the topic you are mastering which give you an expert level. You can start building your opt-in list now.
You will visit the forums to have knowledge about your customers about their wants and needs and target those wants and needs. Use your forum posts to build a relationship with others users and invite them to be part of your list.

It’s obvious and it’s the truth that people will place their orders only if your prospects and customers believe and trust in you. They want your product or service only if it’s a good exchange for their money. Note that people could follow your recommendation and buy if they know you. Build your online presence.


3) Expand your friendship with other opt-it list owners. You can benefit of their experience. They will show you the working ways and where you don’t go. You have to avoid many things and these friends will be able to tell you which ones.


4) To collect the data for your opt-in list, you put a form on your website or on a squeeze page of which the only goal is to collect the subscriber’s information. Now you can enhance your squeeze page with video which is become more and more popular. Here again your visitors will fill out the form if they trust in you “at least a little”. To boost the sign up process, you could offer free stuffs like “Free E-book”, “Free News Letter”, “Free Report” and now a “Give away”. Remember to give your privacy rules and inform your subscriber that “you will never share or sell their information”.


Building your own opt-in list needs many preparations, efforts and is a much time consuming job. You’ll continue to keep your list manageable and up-to-date. If you need you will get or hire help. You first goal will be to make your subscribers happy, confident and satisfied so that they will be very pleased to buy from you.

You have heard the well known phrase: "the money is in the list". You must create
your own free opt-in list if you want to put your online business on the next successful level.
It is not easy but your efforts will pay you off. If you have your own database
of target prospects you can start any promotion by sending your offers
to people who trust in you. There are many strategies to build an opt-in list,
I discuss some ones that bring you good results.

The basic system is to collect your contacts email address.
The method is to put a form on your web page to collect the prospect’s informations. To
make the technique to be successful you can offer a subscribtion to your free newsletter.
You can also offer some freebies to download; your prospect needs to fill out a web form
to get instant access to the download link. The best strategy is your efforts is to
to turn these visitors into hungry customers of your offers.

You can enhance this method by building a squeeze page where the visitor will fill out
a web form. You put a particular attention to build your squeeze page so that your visitor
will be enthusiastic to fill out the form: a very good headline, what you are offering,
what are the benefits for your prospect, who you are, a free report to download,
free e-course delivered directly to his mail box... You call for immediate action
and your list goes on and on! You need to link your squeeze page form with
an autoresponder.

You can also use a pop-under that your visitor will see only after he has read
to the point where he is leaving without ordering. You offer a free product
but you pay attention to not compete your paid product that brings you commission.

There are many programs that offer you their techniques to build your opt-in list.
If you are on budget you could try some free opportunities.

You receive many paid leads opportunities: you purchase the email addresses
from specialised companies. Remember these people have never suscribed to be part
of your list and they are not targeted to your business. You waste time and money
to send them your promotions. The worst point you can be accused to SPAM since
you are sending a non solicited email. The same care will be paid to the free leads
available from some internet promoters.

to reach your own opt-in list of 1000 prospects.
