This is really a great place to meet new friends and network!
I might be able to help you, try visiting this page when you get a chance.
It will definitely help you in building a good and quality list.

YLVA, ( i left your link out)

This is not the place for spamming. You have a great site, and I did not opt-in. I normally wouldnt click on spam in a post, but I saw GPT and I subscribe to that model. Fortunately, spamming and leaving nothing in your post but your pitch is not allowed on this forum. Unfortunately, too many people do this, and it ruins the experience for those of us who follow the rules, not to mention, this type of blatant self promotion weakens the appeal of your business model.

I see that you are new here, so you get your 3 strikes. You already used 2 on this page. Please read the rules.
Let your signature line take care of your pitch.
-Sean

Here's my 2 cents...

1. You NEED your own website... I suggest Wordpress because its easy and you can get ALL THE PLUG-INS You need for free that will help you rank and kill the Search Engines.

2. You need a "Bribe"... You need to come up with a Free Report, Audio or Video. If you are new then you can go to an Article Directory and find the "Top Rated & Viewed" Articles for your topic...

Find 5 Great Articles and contact the owners to make sure its ok you give them away AND LET THEM KNOW YOU WILL KEEP THE "BIO" THE HAVE IN THE ARTICLE PRESENT. Combine 5 Articles and give it away as a Free Report!

3. You need a Landing/Squeeze Page. You can get a "Plug-In" for Wordpress that will Pop Up when you want it to (when they land on your site OR when they try to leave)

As for the "Squeeze Page"... KEEP IT SIMPLE! All you need is...

* A picture (related to your topic NOT OF YOU)
* 4-7 Bullets of the techniques, secrets or tips they will pick up.
* Opt in box


4. Now you need CONTENT! This is even easier. Go get a plugin called "WP O Matic" for Wordpress. Then all you have to do is find RSS Feeds from your market. Plug them (RSS Feeds) into to WP O MATIC and it will pull posts from these feeds and post to your blog!

AUTO PILOT CONTENT!

5. Now you need TRAFFIC!

a. Write Articles about your topic and submit to the Top Article Directories!
b. Make Videos using a Free Tool called JING (http://www.jing.com) AND then you submit them to as many video sites as you can (http://www.SocialMarker.com is a Free Video Submission Tool)
c. Submit Your RSS Feed to RSS Search Engines like Technorati.com, Google Blog Search, Feedage, etc
d. Write a Press Release (2-3 paragraphs about your new site) and submit to all the Free PR Sites (PRWEB.com is 1 of the best)

OK this should be enough to get you started. If you want to get REALLY ADVANCED you can do these additional steps for complete AUTO-PILOT...

When you setup your "Auto-Pilot" blog using WP O MATIC you can then do this...

1. Open a Twitter Account with a user name related to your niche.

2. Go to "www.WeFollow.com" and find the Top Dawgs in your market. And FOLLOW all the people that are FOLLOWING THEM.

3. Go to "www.TwitterFeed.com" and SYNC your blog with your Twitter Account.

Now every time WP O MATIC posts to your blog (from other peoples feeds) EVERY POST WILL GET POSTED ON YOUR TWITTER ACCOUNT... With a link to your site.

People that are following you will follow the links and then you will get people exposed to your Squeeze Page.

Alright I hope this all made sense. Believe me though IT WORKS!

And best part is once you get it setup YOU CAN WALK AWAY!

If you need any help PM me and I will be more than happy to help. And no I have nothing to sell and no opportunity to recruit you to. All I do is give away Free Videos and help people get started.

Kindest Regards,
Kevin DaSilva

I agree with Kevin here - you need a website or some sort of central hub - you then need some sort of leverage or bribing power. You essentially need a funnel and a paddle to push prospects along their way in the funnel. And that's all there is to it - there is no magic bullet, all in one solution, secret turn key ultimate 24/7 automatic formula.

Great post. Thanks for the info.

[Mike Cliffe-Jones Contribution Level: 1]

I'm not sure I believe there is a quick way to build a quality list. The best way is through a blog where you give people great information for free. it's not quick, but you will build a well qualified list that will convert very well.

[Dan Johnson Company: MyLeadSystemPRO Contribution Level: 2]

Thanks everyone for the information, Kevin what a great idea of having other blogs feeding into your blog. I set up a blog, but seems to be a full time job comming up with ideas on what to blog about. I'm going to set up the WPO Matic and see how that works for me.

thanks again

Just want to say "You Welcome" to Dan, Casey and any others who appreciated the my replies.

And I am sorry but I would have to COMPLETELY DISAGREE with some... I say...

1. Don't Buy Lists... MAKE LISTS!
2. List CAN & SHOULD BE BUILT FAST... AS FAST AND AS BIG AS POSSIBLE!

Here's what I mean...

Of course only some will be interested in your Opportunity/Product which is why I always mention, add Revenue Streams by adding MULTIPLE streams of income to your site (again which is why having "your own SELF HOSTED" webiste on your domain is ESSENTIAL).

Now what you do is build that list by "Targeting A Market/Niche" NOT just "Opp Seekers".

Then what I would do is BUILD THAT LIST AS FAST AND BIG AS POSSIBLE.

Finally, you will want to create "sub-lists". Send a few email offering some type of video, audio, free report or whatever having to do with your "opp"... But ASK THEM TO OPT-IN "AGAIN".

This will put them on a "sub-list" so now you have you "Big List that has some who don't care about your opp"... However, you can create lists with the rest on things you know they like... They are all interested in something... YOUR JOB IS TO KNOW YOUR PROSPECT AND KNOW WHAT THEY WANT!

Then you find some "Affiliate Programs" for that Market and you send them emails w/ Affiliate Links... SIMPLE!

NOT making money or ignoring the 99% of the people that will say NO to your opp, even though you worked really hard, not to mention the time & effort it takes to get their attention... to me is nuts.

There is many way to making money so don't be close-minded. Build a NICHE DRIVEN online business. And let MLM be 1 "Revenue Avenue" of many.

The beautiful thing is the other "Revenue Streams" can be run on Auto-Pilot (this would take to long to explain I am creating some Video & Reports).

But I am talking about getting "Paid Per Click, Paid Per Lead,etc...

Obviously, this is what works for me and what I believe in... To each his/her own and I am sure there are many in here who could give you great examples of the opposite model.

But I like to help others see that, especially when getting started, there are many ways to earn revenue so there is no need to struggle until you build out a downline... And you can do it WITHOUT having to take time away for your MLM EFFORTS.

Hope this helps guys/gals...

Kindest Regards,
Kevin DaSilva

P.S. Hey DAN don't forget to use the resources available to you for free such as Digg, Forums (threads w/ most views), Competitors (join their list), Google Adwords (Ads always show up in position #1-3 for your keywords ARE GETTING THE JOB DONE) and I could go on forever... Basically, Find out what has already been PROVEN WINNERS and use those...

I call this "Competition Ammunition" (get the ammo from your competition to go to war and CRUSH them)... lol

SERIOUSLY Though THIS WORKS! And it makes being the "new guy/gal" to the market AN ADVANTAGE because you get to "swipe" from the ones who took years, millions of dollars and a lot of stress to figure out the objections, fears, frustrations, dreams and aspirations that resonate with your market!

So don't drive yourself nuts trying to "reinvent the wheel"... you know what I mean?
