Who doesn’t love sending a quick email and pretty much instantly start seeing payments drop into your PayPal account?
If you are not at this stage yet, believe me this isn’t a pipe dream. As long as you have started building your list of subscribers AND are sending regular emails with links to products or services you know will help people on your list, you will see that earning an online income doesn’t have to be that difficult.
You might think that once you build a big enough list, this is exactly what you are going to do…
…and if you are thinking like this, you are making a HUGE mistake.
You really do need to be sending mails to your list as soon as humanly possible.
You want to start building a relationship with your list and the best way to do this is to communicate via your emails. If you put this off, you will soon be forgotten about, drastically increasing the chances of your subscribers hitting the ‘Unsubscribe’ option when you eventually do send a mail to them.
Send mails from day one and regularly after that to educate your list to expect a mail from you on a regular basis.
Of course it is important that your mails aren’t just a bunch of spammy promotions, but instead mails that have real content; stories, tips, techniques, your experiences. You want your list to understand that you are a very real person who genuinely wants to help and not just some faceless marketer after their ‘buck’.
When it comes to composing mails to send to my list, one of the best bits of advice I ever got was stop writing to your list, and write to a mate instead.
As they say, you can’t satisfy everybody all of the time, so why even try.
In other words stop trying to second guess what will resonate with everyone on your list, and just write your mail with one person in mind (usually a good mate).
By doing this, the process of creating your mail becomes so much easier. In addition it also has a spin off benefit that by writing in this way, the ‘real you’ will come across and therefore make you much more relatable.
Try it, it works. But however you do it, make sure you are communicating with your list on an almost daily basis.
You’ll be amazed how much impact the sending of regular mails has on the income you see coming in.
