Hi [Name],

To steal a line from Mark Twain...

The reports of the death of email marketing are greatly exaggerated.

If you've heard any rumblings that email doesn't work, let me tell you those folks are completely wrong.

Right now there are four billion people in the world who use their email daily.

An eye-popping 77% of email marketers have seen engagement go UP in the last year.

Most mobile users prefer to get information from brands via email.

And email marketing campaigns deliver an impressive $36 return for every $1 invested.

So why are some people saying email is dead?

Eh, who knows. But we're guessing the people who are saying this just aren't very good list builders.

You know what we're talking about: "THIS DOESN'T WORK FOR ME SO IT MUST NOT WORK FOR ANYONE ON THE PLANET!"

These are people who usually don't ever ask for help and don't ever even consider they might be doing something wrong with their email campaigns.

Now you're reading this so we know you're open to help. And whether you're a relatively new list builder or one that hasn't even started yet, you're all about getting great results.

Are we right so far?

You want to build as big of a list as possible, and you want that list to be as profitable as possible too.

You're not out-of-this-universe unrealistic. You know you're not going to make a billion dollars with your mailing list. And you know you're not going to wake up tomorrow morning with a huge list that magically appeared.

But you do know that if you do everything right, then you CAN create a list that takes care of you. It's an asset that you can depend on it. It's a predictable source of income whenever you need it.

If you like the sound of that, then let us show you how to build a list that truly takes care of you.

See what we mean by clicking here now >>

Why won’t this friggin’ list grow?
Is your mailing list on life support?

BODY COPY:

Hi [Name],

Some days it feels like if your mailing list was a person, it would be turning blue and on life support by now.

And you can’t help but wonder, “WTH is going on?”

Because you’ve read all the books, watched all the videos, followed all the list-building content on social media, blogs and elsewhere.

You feel like you’re doing everything right, but it seems like everything is going wrong.

Maybe you’re struggling to get people to even join your list.

Or maybe that’s not a problem. Maybe your problem is that you’ve got the list, but they’re so unresponsive that you feel like you’re emailing a pile of rocks.

A pile of rocks that won’t open your emails, won’t click on your links and won’t buy your products.

Heads up…

Let me assure you that you ARE doing everything right. If you’ve got the whole lead magnet, lead page, autoresponder system in place then yes – you did it right.

None of this is your fault.

The problem?

No one ever showed you the #1 key to creating a responsive list. And that key is that you need to set yourself apart from your competition in a meaningful way.

Your lead page needs to be different.

Your lead magnet needs to be unique.

Your emails and autoresponder content need to deliver something fresh.

Because if you’re trying to make a kick ass living by copying what everyone else is doing, I’ll tell you right now that it won’t work.

People are TIRED of rehashed content from marketers who look like clones of every other marketer.

Their brains shut down when they see tired content. They start trashing emails without opening them. They unsubscribe like crazy and create huge churn rates.

And the list leaks subscribers and cash like a rusted, holey bucket.

The good news is you can stop hemorrhaging cash and subscribers starting today using a strategy that’s based on science.

If you want to finally build a big, responsive list of subscribers who open your emails, click on your links and buy what you’re selling, then you need to check this out right now:

BLOG 1: What Almost Every List Builder is Overlooking – And How to Turn Things Around Fast to Build a Big List

I’m betting you’ve read a blog post or two or ten about list building. And they all say the same stuff, right? Create a lead magnet, set up a lead page, drive traffic. Bada bing, bada boom… big list.

Except it’s not quite that easy, right?

Maybe you’ve tried to follow those instructions, but it’s not quite working for you.

Here’s why: you’re missing a couple key pieces of information. And you’re missing the one thing that’s going to tie the whole strategy together and finally deliver great results.

What are those key pieces of information? That’s what you’re about to discover. Inside this blog post you’re going to see the entire strategy laid out, and within each step you’re going to get the key pieces of information that you’ve been missing so far. 

Let’s jump in…

Step 1: Know Your Audience

Most people jump right into snapping into place the various components of list building, such as creating a lead magnet. However, you shouldn’t even be thinking about your lead magnets or lead pages until you thoroughly study your audience.

There are two reasons for this:

• You need to know what your audience wants so that you can deliver a lead magnet that’s absolutely irresistible to them.
• You need to know who your audience is so that you can craft lead pages and other content that resonates with them.

Most list builders don’t take the time to do a deep dive to really understand their audience, and that’s why they end up with a small list, an unresponsive list, and/or a high churn rate.

So, here’s what you need to do. First, you need to find out what your audience is BUYING. If they’re buying a particular infoproduct, tool, app or service, then you can bet they’ll line up around the block to get something similar for free.

Secondly, you need to figure out who your audience is. Check out their demographics, figure out what makes them tick, determine their biggest niche challenges, discover their hopes, fears and desires. The more you know about your audience, the easier it will be for you to create content that makes them swoon. This means you need to talk to your audience, survey them, and do some research to learn more about their age, gender, interests and behaviors.

Now the next step…

Step 2: Know Your Competitors

The second step is to know your competitors and how they’re positioning themselves in the market. The idea here is to spot an opening in your market for you to set yourself apart.

I can’t stress enough how this is going to be a big key to your success. If you don’t find a way to set yourself apart from everyone else in your niche, then you’re just going to get drowned out by the noise. You’ll need to work exponentially harder just to barely survive off the crumbs dropped by your competitors.

That’s not fun. And it’s definitely not profitable.

So, here’s what to do instead: work smarter instead of working harder. Set yourself apart by giving your audience a really good reason why they should do business with you. Brainstorm what’s unique about your business, and match that up with a benefit that your audience really values.

For example, do you have a boatload of experience in the niche (with proof), and that’s something your audience values? That’s a great way to set yourself apart.

Have you pioneered a strategy in the niche? Sharing something no one else is sharing is another great way to set yourself apart.

Point is, don’t skip over this step, because setting yourself apart is going to make a huge impact on list growth and retention.

Next…

Step 3: Create an Irresistible Incentive

Okay, you know what your audience wants and you’ve figured out how to be unique in your niche. Now you need to create an irresistible lead magnet that’s not only in-demand in your niche, but also unique.

This could be most anything, including a report, membership, video, webinar, audio, app, tools like checklists, tutorials, courses or more. But the big key is that you need to make it unique. You need to provide fresh tips and ideas your audience has never seen before, and/or you need to present the information in a fresh way.

For example, don’t just teach people a “how to” strategy. Instead, give the strategy a unique name. You might even create a unique “formula” or “system” around the process. Don’t be afraid to coin new phrases, because that’s what leaders do, while followers just rehash other peoples’ information.

Next…

Step 4: Set Up Your Lead Page

At this point you have a high-value, desirable, and extraordinarily unique lead magnet. You just know your prospects are going to rush to join your list in order to snag this valuable product. Now you need to create a lead page that does a great job of conveying the unique benefits of your offer.

This page is going to make or break your success. If you create a boring lead page that doesn’t do a good job of letting your prospects know why they should join your list RIGHT NOW, you can kiss your dreams of having a big list goodbye. If you don’t tell your prospects why you and your lead magnet are different from your competitors, you’re going to really struggle to build a big, responsive list.

The point is, you need to create a mini sales page that positions your product as different and better than everything else that’s out there. Even if your prospect has downloaded a million other similar products, you need to stir up desire to download yours too because it’s different and better in a meaningful way.

Do you have the copywriting chops to do this yourself? If you can’t confidently say “yes” to this question, then you’re going to want to hire a copywriter who can infuse a little magic into your lead page. Be sure to pick someone who truly and deeply understands how important it is for you to set your offer apart from everything else that’s out on the market.

Next…

Step 5: Drive Targeted Traffic

“Hits” and “traffic” don’t mean diddly squat. Bots aren’t going to put money into your pocket. Real humans who aren’t targeted to your offer aren’t going to be profitable either. That’s why you need to focus in like a laser on generating high-quality, highly targeted traffic who’s absolutely hungry for your offer.

So listen, you already have a head start in this department because you’ve studied your audience. You know what they want and you know who they are. Now you just need to figure out where they hang out so you can drop your ads and promos in front of them.

The good news here is that you don’t need to do this all from scratch. There are other people in your niche who already have what you want -- access to your audience -- and they’re willing to direct the audience over to your lead page. All you have to do is give them something that they want too.

For example:

• Trade free content for massive exposure in the form of guest blogging.
• Give your existing prospects and customers discounts and other incentives to refer their friends to your business.
• Pay for exposure by placing ads on niche sites and social platforms where your audience hangs out.
• Trade ads and endorsements with other marketers who save the same niche as you do.
• Be a guest expert on a popular podcast in your niche.

Those are just a few ideas to get you going. For best results, focus on just one advertising idea at a time. Once you get one method up and running, then go ahead and add another to your overall strategy. Commit to taking consistent steps every day towards growing your traffic, and soon you’ll see exponential list growth too.

And finally…

Step 6: Learn More About the Process

At this point you’ve got a great step-by-step process in hand for list building, including the essential components you need to snap into place to start getting good results. Most list builders overlook these key components, and that’s why most list builders can hardly cover their autoresponder fees (much less make a comfortable living online).

But let’s be honest here…

One blog post isn’t going to turn you into a super marketer whose mailing list gushes money like a firehose. One post isn’t going to have you creating the biggest list in your niche. And yeah, one post isn’t going to change your life.

It’s not meant to do any of those things because we don’t have the space to deliver the full strategy to you. Instead, this post is intended to open your eyes to the possibilities, and to give you a solid foundation for building that big list.

You can take what you’ve learned so far and run with it. You’ve learned enough to set yourself apart in your niche and attract high-quality subscribers who’ll eventually go on to become profitable customers.

But you’re not going to settle for a few subscribers a little pocket change, right? You want the full strategy so that you can finally build that big, responsive list that you’ve been dreaming about.

And that’s where our new course comes in. It’s called One to Ten, and it’s all about how to start from zero, get your first 1000 subscribers, and then 10x your results to create a huge, responsive and very profitable list.

Every marketer in any niche has followed the principles outlined in this course, whether they could name those principles or not. A lot of these marketers wasted a whole lot of time and money figuring it out by trial error. Other marketers never figured it out, and they had to return to their day jobs and cubicles and retail cash registers.

The good news for you is that you can take a shortcut and learn these essential strategies TODAY. Don’t waste time chasing ideas that don’t work or trying to figure it all out yourself. Instead, build your list by doing exactly what the top list-builders do.

BLOG 2: Why 90% of List Builders Aren’t Making Any Money (Pssst, Are You Making These Mistakes Too?)

Most list builders take the same basic steps of setting up a lead page, dangling an attractive lead magnet, and setting up an autoresponder sequence. Then they sit back and wait for the big bucks to roll in.

And they wait and they wait and they wait.

Because you know what? Doing the bare minimum isn’t going to produce extraordinary results. And doing the same thing as everyone else – even if they’re succeeding – is going to end up making you feel like a hamster running on a wheel. You’re going to expend a whole lot of effort, but you’re not going anywhere fast.

The good news is that most list builders are making the same set of mistakes that’s harming their bottom line. If you’re already working on growing a list, then you might be making these mistakes too. And if you’re still in the planning stages, then you’ll definitely want to check out this guide so you can save yourself time and money by learning how to recognize and avoid these costly mistakes.

Take a look…

Believing Your Audience Thinks Like You

A lot of marketers believe their prospects are just like them. This is often the case because the list builder is a part of the target market, so they assume they’re part of the same exact segment as their audience. This ends up being a costly mistake.

For example, some people just hate video, while others absolutely love it and prefer it above all other formats. Now suppose you have an audience that loves video, which means you should be posting videos on your platforms to generate traffic, putting videos on your lead page to convert traffic, and selling video products to create some revenue.

But what if you personally don’t like videos, so you don’t do any of that?

Yep, you guessed it: you’re going to leave a ton of money on the table.

Now that’s just an example, but there is a nearly infinite number of ways you can shoot yourself in the foot simply by believing you are your audience, and that they think like you, like the same things as you, dislike the same things as you and so on.

Let me give you a couple more examples:

• You don’t create or promote high-ticket products in your niche because you personally would never buy anything over $X.
• You don’t send an email more than once per week because you personally don’t like receiving more than one email per week.

Get the point?

What you need to do is research your audience and survey them to find out what they like, what they think, and how they feel about various things related to your newsletter, your business, your products and your niche. Then set aside your own feelings about these items, and deliver what your audience wants (not what you personally want).

Here’s the next mistake…

Playing the Copycat Game

Part of delivering what your audience wants means you need to figure out what they’re already buying and consuming, and then serve them up more of the same.

But heads up…

This doesn’t mean you should be a copycat. This isn’t about cloning popular lead magnets or paid products. Not only is that illegal, but it’s not going to get you the results you desire.

If you want to enjoy success in your niche, then you need to set yourself apart from your competitors. You need to create FRESH lead magnets that impress the heck out of your prospects.

Let’s say you’re creating a report on weight loss. There are about a bazillion weight loss reports out there, right? That’s because it’s a popular topic. But you need to find a way to set your report apart from the crowd. One way to do that is by creating and naming a diet.

For example, there are bunches of reports named something along the lines of, “How to Lose Weight” or “The Secrets of Fat Loss.” But imagined if you set yourself apart by naming a diet, such as “The [Your Last Name] Method for Fat Loss.” The unique diet would have prospects flocking to your lead page to download your report. And if your method was truly unique in some way, then you’d further set yourself apart and cement your reputation as a thought leader in your niche.

End result? Your list would grow like crazy, because everyone will want to download and try this fresh, unique dieting method.

Here’s the next mistake that will sink you…

Valuing Quantity Over Quality

Once you get into this whole list building and marketing thing, you’re going to quickly realize you need a LOT of content. You’ll use content to:

• Generate traffic (SEO, guest blogging, social media marketing, etc.).
• Attract leads (lead magnets, blog content, etc.).
• Convert traffic (lead pages, case studies, emails, and relationship-building content).
• Make money (paid infoproducts such as reports, memberships, courses, etc.).

What often happens is that a marketer starts out crafting really high-quality content, but within months the quality drops because they have so much content to create. Then suddenly they find themselves focusing on quantity rather than quality – and that’s when things begin to fall apart.

So listen carefully…

It’s better to have fewer pieces of high-quality content than it is to sacrifice quality in the name of publishing as much content as possible. Many of your prospects very first impression of you and your business are going to be formed when they run into a piece of your content online – and if that content sucks, you can bet that prospect isn’t going to be in a big hurry to join your list or seek out any more of your content. Instead, they’ll click away from your content and never return.

Point is, you need to find ways to speed up content creation without sacrificing quality. You can outsource, you can use speech-to-text technology to making writing faster, or you even start with high-quality PLR content. But just be sure that every piece you publish is high-quality and something you’re proud to attach your name to.

Next…

Doing What’s Fun Rather Than What’s Effective

Take a moment and think of all the things you need to do in the next six months in order to build a big, profitable mailing list. There should be a lot of items on that to-do list if you’re aiming for success. And truth is, not every item is something you’re going to enjoy doing.

That’s completely normal. But where a lot of marketers make a mistake is by focusing on doing what’s fun, even if those fun things aren’t entirely effective or aren’t particularly important. Every day they’re working like crazy trying doing all of these tasks. It’s fun, yes… but their business is growing at a snail’s pace, if at all.

Yes, growing your list IS fun, but that doesn’t mean every single moment of your work day is going to fill you with joy. For example, maybe you really don’t like social media that much – but if you want to grow your list, you’re going to need to do some social media marketing and engagement.

That’s just one example. The point is, you need to get the work done, even if you dread it. That doesn’t mean you need to do it yourself, though. You can outsource just about any task, and that’s a good choice when you find yourself procrastinating on certain tasks.

Trying to Figure it All Out Yourself

In just about every other part of your life, you probably save yourself time and money by following in the footsteps of experts. For example, I’m betting you didn’t learn every facet of cooking all by yourself. Maybe you learned from a parent, or from watching the Food Network on TV, or even from reading recipes. And sure, you add your own twists to recipes, but you don’t completely reinvent the wheel every time you want to make dinner, right?

Same goes for building your list. If you want to shortcut your success and get great results, then you absolutely need to follow in the footsteps of experts. And yes, you can and should add your own unique twists to the process, but you’re just wasting your time if you try to completely reinvent the wheel or learn from trial and error.

And that’s why I recommend that all list builders pick up Simon Hodgkinson’s and Jeremy Gislason’s new course, “One to Ten” which teaches you how to get your first 1000 subscribers, and then how to scale up to 10X the size of your list and profits.
