There are various ways to start building your first list of customers related specifically to one niche.
With a strong and automated list building system that converts well cold traffic as well as warm traffic from a joint venture partner or a solo ad you bought from a respected marketer. If you don’t know what a solo ad is then it’s just a paid advertisement such as a message that you send to that marketer list without paying a commission to that marketer.
It is a cool and profitable way to jump start your list building efforts but you need to monetize that traffic because you are spending money to get those subscribers. The most important thing about a list building system is the value per subscriber or how much does a subscriber cost you to get it in your system funnel.
There are various types of list building systems that you want to follow because every system is different. In this article i am not going to talk about courses about list building but i will touch on the “systems” part because it is important to have an altitude view of how the list building system work for a specific goal.
Quality Qualify LIst Building System
If you want your subscriber or tribe to be of high quality, and you are more of a person that like quality over quantity then this is for you. If you are selling a high ticket offer then this will work for you as well because you want to weed out the week and sell to people with money that consume your content and you want to do this in order to educate them of the value you bring to the table with your product and services.
The Quality Qualify LIst Building System follows the principles of consistency on the great Book Influence by Dr. Robert Cialdini.
This principle states that if you will comply to do one thing a person ask you to do then you are more likely going to accept another thing that same person asks you to do.
If you comply to take an action that a complete stranger told you to do then you are part of this consistency principle. There are a lot of great examples on Cialdini’s Influence and as a student of marketing you should get that book asap to learn more principles that will make you an influencer.
So this list building system works with the consistency principle. You create a series of cliff hanger content pages that are telling a “how to” and a story on a sequential basis.
What?
What is a cliff hanger content?
Let me explain. A cliff hanger is something used in movies and tv shows. For example the Tv Series LOST used the magic of Cliff hangers in a very good way because the people that saw that TV show was hooked and wanted to resolve the mystery of the magical island and all that dilemma.
This mystery was feed with cliff hangers and you should use them for you advantage in this list building system.
So instead of creating content in a long page outlining all the how to information of the system you cut that long page and separate it into chunks with a “Click Here to Continue” button on the bottom of each Cliff Hanger Content Page.
Like this, And this, Another one here.
The more content pages you have you will have a more quality subscriber in your list.
Because that person consumed your content and followed the consistency principle. He or she clicked the “Click Here to Continue” many times to get the the last page of content.
In the last page of content instead of putting the “Click Here to Continue” button to continue to other Cliff Hanger content you put an Optin Form that Continues the Relationship with you.
You can give your subscriber a free video or a free report with more information about the subject.
Let me tell you this works great!
I have seen optin rates with this kind of list building system as high as 80% optin rate!
It says that in the Aweber Form optin rate. If you build a list this way you will have a responsive list, expect your subscribers to open your emails and get high click through rates (CTR).
You should create a good Autoresponder sequence and build an Automatic Money Engine that provides quality content to your subscribers but also recommends products and services that you know will work for them.
Recommend products that you use and respect. A good recommendation is just that. Not an endorsement just for the money.
You should structure your Autoresponder Sequence as a Soap Opera Sequence.
Use the Quality Qualify LIst Building System to your benefit.
I have talked in this article about this specific List Building System but not in an in depth article like this and i know you will benefit if you do this right now in one of your funnel sites or like some people call them money sites.
You can use WordPress to set this very easily and cheaply.
You can use the new WordPress theme and use the one column layout in order that there are no distractions for the reader.
If you use a simple blog with too many distraction you are going to waste your effort creating this Quality Qualify LIst Building funnel.
This system proved to work with this little site that generated more than 20 million dollars with Sequential Cliff Hanger Content.
The key thing about this way of list building is that you provide value up front because you are telling a valuable story and how to information instead of just saying:
“Hey this is a CLOSED door you can’t get in. But there is great content behind this door just give me your email and i will let you in”.
There is very little barrier to entry but you the person don’t know you and you should prove yourself in the following days so that subscriber can see your real value.
With this system is the opposite thing.
You are the authority and he or she expects more great stuff from your now that you are a trusted source.
A “Friend”.
And that’s the exact same position we want to be in.
I want to invite you and teach you about List Building.
I am following the Quality Qualify LIst Building System too.
