I want
to wish you all a Blessed and Happy Easter.
Sharon
and I have a great free gift that we'd like
to give
you. It's an awesome package that includes
a PDF
Report, Audio and a squeeze and/or sales page
that
you can use to give the report and audio away -
or sell
it and keep the profit yourself.
And
yes, that's Sharon's voice on the recording
you'll
hear, which you can remove from the page
you'll
be getting if you want.
You'll
find a direct link to it on our new blog.

Yesterday
I sent out a special announcement but
know a
few of you only open the issues and no
solos
or even extra messages from me.
In case
you missed it, in summation, I made a really
stupid
( blind faith ) mistake of judgment trusting
that
someone else would use the same integrity and
honesty
that I always do and upon *selling* most of
the
shelving/counter/store supplies, made arrangements
with my
bill collectors to pay with post-dated checks
and so,
of course, the deal fell through. I am trying
everything
I can to raise $2500 by the 31st. and have
to have
at least $1500 of it by the 23rd, which gives
me now
THREE days, eek. I have had a constant struggle
since
my separation/divorce and then my adopted Dad
passing
away and even working another job and my net
biz are
not enough to get me past this hurdle. IF I
can get
things caught up by the end of this month,
by May
I will be "making it" with no real worries
or
threats. I am offering two for one price on any
ads, a
free or comparable value digital item for
each
purchased, Sharon and I will do the same with
any
janron item plus I am offering free ad space
equal
to purchase at my memory lane store.
If you
have ever wanted to buy ads, digitals or
tangibles,
please consider doing it now. Here are
the

3 Quick
And Easy Ways To Build A Profitable Opt In List
You
finally realize that you need a good opt-in list.
After
reading countless articles and the expert advice
about
creating a small fortune with opt-in lists, you
finally
decide to have one of your own. Then it happens,
you
think you know everything there is to know about
opt-in
lists and have followed the advice to the
T and
you still weren’t able to make a profit.
In fact,
you may be losing money. You may be hiring
writers
to help you out. Or getting signups from paid
list
building services. Even if you have a big list,
if only
a very small percentage actually buys from you,
you are
still losing profit. You’ll realize that after
a few
months when you see your statistics and sales
figures.
So what
could have gone wrong? Why have others succeeded
where
you have failed? The most common mistake is to dive
right
in. You chose a topic where you think could be quite
popular
and would earn you money. This is rarely the case.
Just
because you write to people from your list doesn’t
mean
they are going to buy instantly.
For
those who have started an opt-in list and have failed,
you can
rejuvenate your failed venture. For those who are
starting,
here are three quick and easy ways to build a
profitable
opt-in list.
1) Get
your customers to trust you and your products first.
Just
launching your opt-in list would not make you an
expert
and a believable seller. Put out many articles
before
you start an opt-in list. Write about the topic
you
know and have started and used for your site. Set up
a forum
or opinion poll, etc. to gain knowledge about
your
customers, about their wants and needs and target
those
wants and needs.
Join
forums from other sites as well. Provide expert
advice
and recommendations. When you feel that people
trust
you already, you will be able to start your own
opt-in
list. You can build a base as well with other
forum
users. You can ask them to join your list.
Friends
are always good customers. Put up a link to
your
site so that they may be able to see what your
business
is all about.
The
truth is, the money will only come in when the
consumers
and subscribers believe and trust in you.
They
want a product or service that could be a good
exchange
for their money. People are not going to
buy
something out of your recommendation if they
don’t
know you.
2) Find
a product or service that people want and need.
Although
it may not be your forte, if you provide a
service
and product that you have researched and
learned
about well, you can carry it on forward.
Invest
your time, effort and money that you could
sell as
well as the buyers or subscribers of your
opt-in
list can use.
While
it is true that it is best to sell something
that
you have interest in, there are not many people
who
have the same interest as you if you decide to
sell
something that is not entirely popular or
profitable.
Do your research well and you would see
the
profits come in. Also provide your subscribers
with
promotional material that they could actually
use and
spread around.
3) Make
friends with other opt-in list users. This is
basically
beneficial especially if it is someone who
has
already launched a successful opt-in list. These
are
people that have the experience in this venture
and
experience is still the best teacher. While there
are
many articles available for you in the internet
to use,
there is nothing like getting a first hand
account
from someone you trust.
Experienced
opt-in list users will be able to tell you
what to
do and what not to do because they have gone
through
it. While different situations occur for
different
people, the general concept can still be
very helpful.
There are many things to avoid and
these
people will be able to tell you which ones.
Building
a profitable opt-in list will not just happen
overnight.
There are many preparations and efforts going
into
this undertaking. Opt-in lists are built from scratch,
as your
list grows, you should also maintain the quality
of your
list. Keep it organized and manageable. Get or
hire
help if need be, just make sure that your subscribers
are
happy and satisfied and they will be willing to buy
from
you.

Hi Jan,
Just
looking at the amounts of your fuel bills makes me hurt. Ouch!
Something
to think about... Have you considered trading
your
stick built house for one on wheels? There's lot to
be said
for living in an RV and being able to follow the
sun.
Such as being closer to the beautiful granddaughter.
And,
being able to escape cold country in the winter.
Working
online as you do, you have the perfect job to
take
with you anywhere.
