Let's get to it. The most important thing to do is to buy a website, build a list with an opt-in page and create a product that you give away when someone subscribes. With these three things you can start straight away to build a business.
The first objective is to collect a list of potential buyers, this is known as "the List". The list is important because it is your own group of prospects that have shown an interest in what you have to offer.
This list is what you need to first capture, grow and cultivate. It seems a very simple concept but if you do this right, the list will trust you and buy from you. What do you need to do first:
1. Select a website
2. Create an opt-in page
3. Link sign up box to auto-responder
4. Create a free report or gift
5. Send out report or gift each time a prospect subscribes by entering their details onto your web-page and submitting the request.
6. Follow-up with emails, audios and offers
The website is needed so that you can host an opt-in page sometimes known as a landing page. This page gives the information which allows the prospect to decide whether he or she is going to enter their name and email address for your free offer.
The only purpose of this page is to get people to sign up, so your free offer and information must be compelling. Concentrate on getting people to subscribe, so if the content or graphics is not contributing to that goal then remove it from the page. The other thing to note is that the web-page should be stand-alone, the prospect either subscribes or they leave.
The auto-responder is a tool that automatically captures the details from the website and can then send out the free offer you have put together. You use the auto-responder by pre-loading content into it. So you will write a welcome and thank you email for each subscriber and save this into the auto-responder.
You set-up the auto-responder to send the welcome email immediately to a prospect on the receipt of a sign-up email from subscriber. This email is the first to go and typically would also have a link to the free product allowing the subscriber to download the product.
The free content is something that you can create or obtain, but it must be something of value that the prospect wants. The best format for the free content is digital, be it a report, audio or video. This allows everything to be set up for the prospective customer automatically. But the most important aspect is that you can deliver it within seconds of the sign-up without you being involved.
This is important because people want their needs to be satisfied as quickly as possible. Although, you won't think of it initially, what you have set up will be able to cope with thousands of prospects. It is also the first step in creating trust as it shows that you deliver what you have promised.
As soon as you have the first sign-up you have created a list. Once you have the start of a list the key is to keep on communicating valuable information and offers to this list. You need to be consistent in that you should send information at set periods it may be daily, weekly or even monthly. By contacting your prospects regularly and consistently you will build trust and this will help you to build sales and a valuable business.
If you follow the steps outlined above you will learn how to start your online earning journey without the fear of failure.
