Your Attitude Is Everything When Building An Opt In Email List

By: Dennis Stokes.

If you want to have a successful Internet business or any business, their are lots of tasks and responsibilities that need to be done to achieve your goals. Of all the things you do... what do you think would be your most important task? Well... in my opinion that would be building an opt in email list. There's is nothing more important to ensure long-term success and really have the ability to maximize your earning potential while at the same time reducing the amount of work time. Ask anybody that is doing this successfully and I'm sure they will readily agree.

So now you're all pumped up and ready to conquer the world with your new found knowledge. You start to apply all the techniques to build that powerful list but... after all the time you've put in to make it work... it doesn't. You've built it up, but it still doesn't make you any money like everybody says it should.

Frustrated, you might even be losing money because of the expenses to build the list, maintain it and any other cost associated with building an opt in email list.

You think over and over... 'they say the money is in the list', but it might only be for the chosen few who are building an opt in email list. They must knows something you don't because of your total failure to even profit from your list. So you just say forget it and go on to the next big thing that's supposed to be making people a bundle of cash on the Internet

Please.....don't give up on it cause there's hope. It might seem to you like an impossibility, but having and building a targeted email list is a crucial part of your business success. Just roll up your sleeves and really learn how to do it and do it right. If you're persistent, you will be able to do it and you'll be really glad you did.

So what's the barrier that keeps you from building an opt in email list that's holding you back to success? Well, there are many factors involved that need to be implemented to successfully building an opt in email list. I only have room in this article to discuss one ingredient to the recipe, but this is a main ingredient that if you don't have and add to the mixture you will be pulling your hair out forever. And for some of us like me, without a lot of hair, it's not something I can afford to do (haha).

Before even starting a list, like building a house, a solid foundation must be laid for the whole structure to stand for years to come. The foundation of building an opt in email list has 3 mindsets. If you apply these in your list building from the get go, you will greatly improve you chances of building an opt in email list the profitable way.

1-Think quality not quantity

It might take more effort and thought to methodically attract and add quality subscribers to your list, but it is worth every ounce of sweat to building an opt in email list that's responsive. Have the mindset of only attracting quality. You may have a smaller list, but even a small highly responsive list will outperform a much larger low quality list any day of the week.

But of course building quality requires more effort and expertise than just building an opt in email list with anyone on that list. I'm not going to go into detail of the how's of building as much as sticking with the foundation or mindset for having a targeted email list.

2-There is only one person on your list. Many list builders make the error of communicating to all on their list like they were in front of them speaking at a convention. DON'T DO THIS. So what do I mean?

Communicate like you are talking to each person on your list individually. You must connect with your subscriber and make them feel like you are just talking to them when you send out emails to your list. Let's face it; they really don't want to be on anyone's list just to be on a list. They've joined your list because they feel you can help them out. They need you to help solve their challenges. Building an opt in email list means giving everyone on your list the feeling you are there just for them like you are right there talking to them.

If you really do this, you will create a win-win situation for everyone.

3-Learn to build for that one perfect prospect and use that system over and over. What I mean by this is to build the squeeze pages, landing pages, marketing and advertising to attract the most targeted prospect. When you have perfected this process, keep doing it over and over.

Take a page from the life of Ray Crock, the founder of McDonalds. You've heard of them haven't you :-). This is a prime example of a man that built a great fast food restaurant. He developed it so he had the optimal experience for customers, hence optimal profits. And only then when he really had it rolling did he franchise it with a system that could be reproduced with the same results over and over.

So don't just have the mindset of just attracting any one on your list. Create a system to really attract quality prospects and then you'll have something you can do over an over to really build a great profitable list.

In summary, Building an opt in email list is done one subscriber at a time. Be that ideal communicator for that one person and be that for everyone on your list. Don't act like a big shot because you'll lose prospects. Always be personable and approachable.
