How to Build Your Client List?
Did you know that those who have a successful online business have their own client lists? When it comes to making money, the most valuable of all kinds of capital is the connections which you make with customers.
So how can you create a relationship with your clients and what is the secret of having a way to contact them and make offers? If you would like to create your client list then here are some tips for you to consider.
First, you will want to have a squeeze page where you collect customer information in exchange for something valuable. This valuable thing could be an e-book or free information or an access to some service you provide only to members. It doesn’t really matter what it is, what you need to do is sell it as if it is free. After all, free is not truly free if you are asking people for their information.
Second, create a short message for the end of your email signaturewhich will invite people to go click it just like your message does.
Third, you can create articles and post them online with a small resource box to invite people to your opt in page. Be sure that the article tells them just enough to get them to want to hear more, but not so much to where they think they are done seeking information.
Fourth, contact people who have lists of their own and make an offer they can’t resist, like 50% of the profit you make by marketing your products to their clients. When you will be generating sales, be sure to collect customers contact info, in this way you will easily build your own client list.
Fifth, you can offer affiliates a small amount of compensation for each opt in. Just be careful and send an email to the new members asking them to confirm their subscription. If you do so, you will be able to track if you should pay an affiliate for it or not. Here is an example of an example of Affiliate SEO Program for you.
Sixth, ask people who you know to be a part of your list. Once you have this done, you can set up a ‘tell a friend’ script in your emails to your list and let people spread the word.
Seventh, there are lists available for sale and for rent, you can take advantage of them as well. Again, you have to be giving them something in return for their contact information and making sure that they are agreeing to it. This will ensure that you have quality opt ins. If you are interested in other targeted traffic generation methods, you might consider setting up a Pay Per Click campaign, which is a great Search Engine Marketing tool.
Eighth, when you will have your list you can do ad trades where you allow someone to place an ad in your ezine in exchange for you placing one in theirs. This will give you a win win solution for building your list with the help of others.
Ninth, post a link to your opt in page on your social networking profiles and in forums. Don’t forget to be offering something valuable in return for the contact info from your clients.
Finally, keep in touch with your customers and send them updates and weekly newsletters. This will ensure that the list members which you have will remain loyal to you.
