The “FREE CD Reveals The 7 Killer Web Traffic Secrets” Blog

Many online marketers, especially those starting out, tend to build a list for the sole reason of selling to it. While this is understandable, it is not necessarily the right approach. Let me explain why. The real reason you should be building a list is to build a relationship with your site’s visitors.

When it comes to selling online there are many marketers out there
who are selling their product or service hard and cold. This can be effective in some cases but it is never as effective as when you build a relationship with your visitors. People like to buy form people they know and like.

So the first point I would like to emphasize when building a list is that you should use this process to develop a relationship with your visitors. You can do this by providing them with valuable information that will better help them in their endeavor.

Once they see that you have their interests in mind and not just yours then you will have far more success. Basically, just put yourself in their shoes

The key to building a relationship is to understand what their needs are and then help them to connect the dots. For example, your visitor comes to you looking for a way to develop a keyword list that will prove to be more effective when it comes to converting traffic to sales.

Your goal then is to show them how in a simple way that they can follow. You can provide them with information that is helpful but not necessarily complete. In other words, you could show them how you go about doing keyword research and then show them proof of how you get your results.

All this builds credibility and then once they can benefit from the information you have provided, they will feel confident in obtaining their goal. This then builds value in what you may recommend later.

Once you have done this you can then recommend or sell something to them that will help make their life easier when implementing this process and since you have built credibility it is inevitable that they will want to do business with you.

These days, with the advent of video, this process is very easy to implement. You can provide online tutorials and show them how it works as if they were looking over your shoulder. This can be very helpful and it makes them feel like they are getting one on one time with you.

To conclude, always be adding value and repeating the benefits. Understand their needs and communicate at their level with a genuine concern that you really want to help them achieve their goals. If you engage this process correctly, you will set yourself apart from all the other marketers who are just out for themselves and as a consequence, your business will thrive.

Most of us are aware that companies offer free gifts as incentives as a means of list building. We also know that businesses within the technology industry and large organizations, for example, Oracle or Intel generate leads by giving away specialized reports. However, I want to show you an excellent strategy which will generate leads not just to attract people who are interested in what you have on offer, but also to those who will remain loyal to you for a long time to come.  This goes by the name of BOOK STRATEGY.

One of the first things I noticed when I launched my initial membership site was how much people are interested in content. Whilst networking, workshops, seminars, E-books, CDs and DVDs proved to be fascinating to all, there was one other aspect which created a fantastic relationship between me and my subscribers.  It was a very straightforward gesture but also extremely worthwhile, when I gave them books for free in the last quarter of the year.

When compared to CDs, DVDs, Teleseminars and e-books, a book is felt to carry the most value by far.  With a high shelf value, a book is, on many occasions, considered to be a bigger and better information resource than the Internet.

How do you go About Putting into Practice a Book Give Away Service in Your Business?

Selecting a good book to give someone is easy if you read a lot of books yourself. Find a subject which compliments your line of business and is also likely to be of assistance to your customers, and then simply give them a free copy.  Help is always at hand by having a look at Amazon.com if you are not a regular reader or cannot think of a particular book to present your customers with. When you find something which appears to be interesting, read it yourself and if you feel that your customers will glean something from it, order a few copies and send them out.

There are several sites on the internet where you can buy books in bulk.  There is no requirement for the book to be in the best seller charts, just make sure that the content of the book is relevant to your audience.

Shipping costs are very reasonable.  Using USPS and sending them as media mail costs no more than $3 per book, coast to coast within the United States and Officemax supply covers for less than a dollar making the whole thing an inexpensive idea.

There is definitely something about books which is unfathomable as they connect people at a very special level.  But don’t just take my word for it!  Send your customers books and just watch what happens.  You will be everyone’s favorite with this generous action.

Often referred to as the blogosphere, this community of writers works together to promote the content and information posted in various blogs. There are a number of ways other bloggers can help your business grow:
