How To Build An Email List As An Affiliate
By David Lake
You have probably heard "the money is in the list" at least
a thousand times. But it is true; the money is in the list.
There is no doubt about it, 99% of people making money online have
an email list. But you already knew that.
What you don't know is how they got those coveted lists of email
addresses that allow them to contact prospects over and over again.
To be very honest with you, most people who have built a big email
list have their own product. But I know getting your own successful
product is very difficult.
So I want to talk about how you can begin building your email list
as an affiliate. With no product, and no website of your own.
The first thing you need to do is understand the reason you are not
making as much money as you had hoped with affiliate programs.
Lets look at a quick real world example. I think it will help you
see what the real problem is with the way most affiliates try make
money online.
Let's say you are promoting printers for a particular merchant. And
let’s say that you referred 700 visitors, generated the merchant 100
leads and made 5 sales this month. Not a bad month.
But what if you had that list of 100 leads of people that are
interested in buying a printer? Some of those 100 leads are going to
buy a printer soon, and since your merchant has the leads, they are
likely to buy it from them.
Imagine if you had that list of prospects. You could turn some of
those 100 leads into printer sales next month, and earn yourself
some more commission.
But as it stands right now, you have no way of capturing those 100
leads yourself. You can only send people to your affiliate link, and
those visitors really do business with your merchant.
And that's exactly the problem. Every prospect you refer to any
merchant you promote for really becomes their prospect, and not
yours.
But what if there was a way to capture the contact information from
many of the people who click on your affiliate links.
Now every time you advertise and get a lead or a sale for a
merchant, you would actually be building your email list.
So you are building your email list for the future, and not just
working for pennies giving away leads to your merchants.
This is just a much better way to promote products as an affiliate.
