If you don't have a list, you're not in business. Simple as that.<\/strong><\/p>\n

That's why I'm always astonished to see affiliate sites without newsletter or ezine signup forms.<\/p>\n

Like HOW do they get their visitors to REMEMBER their sites, let alone come back if they don't get their names and numbers?<\/p>\n

Think of it like this. You're single and out of the blue you meet a nice-looking, seemingly sane ‘prospect'. So, do you let them walk away and ‘hope' you'll run into each other again, or do you trade names and numbers?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, if you don't get his or her details, chances are darned good that you'll NEVER see them again.<\/p>\n

Don't let that happen to your potential customers.<\/p>\n

Sign 'em up to your list with an offer of an 7-day ecourse, special report or discount coupons.<\/p>\n

Then BUILD that relationship by staying in touch with a regular newsletter. <\/strong><\/p>\n

You're developing content for your site anyway, so either write more for your newsletter, or keep some of your private label rights<\/a> articles aside to rework for your newsletter.<\/p>\n

Let your subscribers get to know, like and trust you by regularly sending out good information on topics relevant to their interests.<\/p>\n

Build that trust and they'll feel comfortable buying from you.<\/p>\n

Make GREAT product recommendations and they'll remain your customers for a long time to come.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, marketing via email is basically the least expensive way to market your site.<\/p>\n
