List Building
“The Money is in the List”
All major online marketing gurus are in agreement on this point: The single most important part to succeeding with your online marketing business is to have, maintain and grow your personal contact list with e-mail addresses and names.
The value attached to your list is by common agreement is 1 US$ per contact per month! That is how much money can be generated from a well maintained list: US$ 5000 for a list of 5000 members per month! You see why we consider the list building one of the – if not the – most important activity you will ever be concerned with as an online marketer. Of course, these numbers are not guaranteed by us… and it should also be quite clear that in order to make money with your list, you will need to do it the right way.
Since you will hopefully be dealing with a lot of sign-ups and a lot of mailing addresses, you will need a system that allows you to:
- collect list information automatically
- store such information reliably
- let you administrate that data comfortably
- let you create auto responders (mails that get sent out when something predefined like receiving an order happens)
- let you create an entire series of follow up mails, that will get sent out again on autopilot followin up on your offer and repeating and expanding your message. Remember, for most sales it is necessary that a prospect be reminded of the subject between 5 and 10 times before she decides to purchase.
- create effectiv and pleasing mailing campaigns which can be adjusted and customized freely.
- Get the highest possible delivery rate. Tests have shown that many autoresponder software tools and online services only deliver up to 40%. Imagine not delivering to 60% of all people that are interested in your products?
- monitor your campaigns, track every metric you need to optimize. Check opens, clicks, sales, etc. also from your iPhone.
- give you detailled stats which will allow you to finetune your mailing campaigns.
We have written reviews on the two most popular auto responder mailing systems which have both been awarded the Cash-In.US Worth It! quality label.

I notice how you are identifying everything on your page with your domain. People don’t realize how powerful these techniques really are. Without traffic, you can’t build a list and without SEO, you can’t get traffic. Kind of a catch22 that way.
