3 Free Super Powerful Techniques For Building Your Own Opt-in List
by Gary Baker

For those of you who have been with this newsletter for any length of time have learned that the number one way to earn any kind of income on the 'Net is to start, run and maintain your own opt-in list.

No matter what type of product or service you might be offering, you will never harness the true money making potential of email marketing without your own highly targeted opt-in list.

So with this article you will discover 3 ways to build your list and not spend one penny out of your pocket, which is always a nice thing :-)

So lets get right to it...

#1 - Write an "endorsement" article.

Yes, you have all heard about the list building power of writing and submitting articles, but lets take it one step further.

Get together with 3 or 4 other ezine publishers.

To find potential publishing partners you can simply use the Free ezine search engine over at...

http://www.ezinelocator.com

Compile a list of publishers who have ezines that are compatible with your subject matter.

Try and target ezines who have the same number of subscribers as you.

If you are just starting out, then contact publishers who have at least 500 subscribers.

Then you send them out a short email that outlines why you are contacting them and how this "endorsement" will benefit them.

Have the publishers send you 4-6 line description of their ezines.

Once you have found 3 or 4 publishers who are willing to work with you, write up a really good article on your particular subject.

Fill it full of good content. Toward the end of the article let your readers know they can find even more "insider" information by subscribing to the other publishers list.

You "endorse" the other ezines by saying something like: "These are the best of the best" in their field and you should get to know them.

List the publishers at the end of the article.

Once the article is finished, each of the participating publishers run the article to their list and BAM new, fresh subscribers.

#2 - Run a Joint Venture "endorsement" Solo Ad.

With this awesome technique, you again get with 3 or 4 publishers by using the same techniques as described above.

Have each publisher send you a 5-8 line description of their ezines.

Instead of running an article, you build a simple one page mini-site that explains all the cool "insider" benefits that all 3 or 4 of you are going to offer for Free.

You then place each of the descriptions into your mini site.

Write up a strong Solo Ad and have each one of the participating publishers run it to their list.

Again...BAM more fresh and Free subscribers.

Here is a copy of a Solo Ad that is currently being used to pull in hundreds of Free subscribers.

End Of Endorsement Solo Ad
============================

#3 - Run a "Free Ad Contest".

This is a fun a quick way to build your list. As above you get 3 or 4 publishers together and each donate a very nice prime Solo Ad Spot.

You then write up a short letter that describes the contest and how each potential person has a chance to win Solo Ads worth the total of all 3 or 4 ads.

You have each of the publishers give you a 4-6 line description of their ezines and add them to your letter.

Simply have each of the publishers run the letter to their ezine list.

The letter leads them to the subscribe pages for each of your publishers.

Once a month, you have a "drawing" where 1 lucky sub will win a Solo Ad for each newsletter.

This technique works like clockwork so use it sparingly.

Well there you have it.

No fluff and bull ways to build a opt-in list and do it for Free.

So get working on these powerful techniques and watch your opt-in list explode.

Until next time...

Instant eBiz Letters

Here's an interesting story (about answering email):

Just a few days ago, a relatively unknown man named William sent me an email about his new software saving me lots of time by helping me answer emails lightning quick. Quite frankly, I was in disbelief. I get hundreds of emails and I'd do just about *anything* to help me out.

(Hey, I'd rather add some more content to ProBizTips than answer the same old questions over and over again.)

Basically, what his software does is provide 91 email templates of emails sent in online business such as customer service, joint venture, and affiliate support email. I was astonished! The software was excellent and has saved me many hours answering emails. When I heard the price that he was selling the software at, I was dumbfounded by his generosity in his price! He said $97.50.

I almost forgot, just in case in the 91 email templates provided doesn't fit your situation, you can create your own e-mail template and have it *automatically saved when you exit the program*.

Unfortunately, William has a tight budget and hasn't been able to sell any copies of the Instant Ebiz Letters. So he offered *only to my ProBizTips subscribers* a 23% discount, which is $22.50 off, and a certificate to all future updates for free.

(You only have to pay $75.00 for the software)

However, there's a little catch. I know, no one likes catches, but this one is pretty reasonable IMHO.

He said he wanted everybody who took advantage of the offer to give him honest feedback and a testimonial if they liked it. There's another thing about him too; he's kind of impatient. William wanted me to end the offer after 72 hours I sent this email so he can get some money quickly to expand Instant E-biz Letters.

Instant E-biz Letters is *way* better than any other solution like hiring tech support, writing your own email templates, and etc for 2 reasons...

I won't list them here because it would take up too much space. Just go to the following link and find out for yourself:

http://www.instantebizletters.com/PBT/

Note: William was dead serious when hesaid he'd remove the offer after 72 hours.
I urge you to look at the website today.This is really an offer you can't afford to miss.

3 Customer Retention Secrets!
by Larry Dotson

1) Give Unexpected Gifts

Give your customers more than they expect. Send thank you gifts to lifetime customers. E-mail them online greeting cards on holidays or birthdays. You could always send a back-end product offer with any contact you make. Award bonuses or points to your customers who make big purchases.

2) Communicate Regularly

Stay in contact with customers on a regular basis. Offer them a free e-zine subscription. Ask customers if they want to be updated by e-mail when you make changes to your web site. After every sale, follow up with the customer to see if they are satisfied with their purchase or have any questions.

3) Resolve Problems Quickly

Resolve your customer's complaints quickly and successfully. Answer all e-mails and phone calls within an hour. If possible, you as the owner of the business, should personally take care of the problem. This will show your customers you really care about them and want their business in the future.

A middle-aged woman had a heart attack and was taken to the hospital. While on the operating table she had a near-death experience. Seeing God, she asked if this was it. God said, "No, you have another 43 years, 2 months, and 8 days to live."

Upon recovery, the woman decided to stay in the hospital and have a facelift, liposuction, breast augmentation, tummy tuck, etc. She even had someone come in and change her hair color. Since she had so much more time to live, she figured she might as well make the most of it.

She got out of the hospital after the last operation, and while crossing the street was killed by an ambulance speeding to the hospital. Arriving in front of God, she demanded, "I thought you said I had another 40 years?"

God replied, "I didn't recognize you."
