WA Members Email Lists: Who Do You Trust
I received 2 emails yesterday about buying email lists, one from a wealthy affiliate member and one from (not wanting to name names lets just say) another internet training program. Let me tell you straight off that no matter who tells you what, at the end of the day you have to make a decision on who do you trust: I’m going to outline the two emails below.
1st email: Don’t buy an email list…
Buying an email list is usually a sure way to pay money for nothing. The basic flow of things is that there are companies that harvest emails from all sorts of places, most of these emails are very old and may not even be in use, they are packeged up ad then sold as emal lists. There are alternatives stated the email .
I followed through and clicked the link, I landed on a blog, I got some good information about how to find a partner in your niche circle and basically to ask if they would allow you to place an add in their email list, you offer a fee to the list owner and the relative link to your squeeze page for your complementing offer …You are able to build a list of your own whilst sending your offer to someone else’s targeted subscriber list..
2nd email: No mailing list: No problem…
This email was stating that it’s too hard and long to build a list… Tired of hearing that you need a mailing list of your own to succeed online? I can’t blame you. After all, building a list is hard work and takes time!
* It takes TRAFFIC to build a list of your own
* You need a WEBSITE to build your own list
* It takes a LONG TIME to build a list!
It promised me 1000’s of targeted email addresses, in any niche it. Much further on in the email they went on to say “I could rent a list. “
Umm I wondered if the link would lead me to more great info, it led me to a squeeze page, with one eyebrow raised I entered my email address then I was sent to a PDF that spoke about the power of ezine marketing, The bottom line was I should buy advertising in ezine directory’s. Then there was an upsell to another ebook.
Which method do I trust?
Well the way I see it the first email offered value with nothing to buy and methods that were fresh and honest. The second email gave me nothing a affiliate marketer doesn’t already know, ‘article marketing works to drive traffic’. Plus it suggested I rent advertising space and also buy his ebook
(The 1st email was from the WA Member)
Building a element of trust is what the list is about you must always offer value, only that will keep me on one of those email lists and certainly encourage me to unsubscribe from the other.
As a bonus to joining wealthy affiliate you can get “Inside The List” a best selling $67 eBook for free ….
