Email marketing is still one of the best ways there is to brand yourself, build trust, drive traffic to your website and make sales.
Many people resist the idea of building a mailing list because it requires work. In addition to the work, you must usually have your own domain and web host.
The mailing list you build is a business asset.
You can have other business assets like your website and products you sell but these assets do NOT have the potential to create new or repeat business like a customer list and a prospect list.
There are many ways to build a prospect list and some of these are:
- Participate in JV events where you give away a free report, limited membership, etc. in exchange for a name and email address.
- A video that teases while informing the prospect about the value of your offering before offering a free sample.
- A classified advertisement that offers free information.
- A newsletter that contains tips, informative articles and freebies or discounts.
This should be a list that you are constantly and consistently working to build because this group is the pool of potential buyers you have permission to mail to.

A Message a Desire and Social Media |

This article isn’t political in nature. I’m using current events to show you how you can overcome obstacles you face if you have the desire to deliver a message.
If you have been following the news this past week, you saw or heard about ordinary people in Iran that had a burning desire to deliver a message and Social Media was the venue used.
Social media such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube may or may not have been their outlets if they’d had multiple choices but the choices available to them were limited.
Even with the obstacles the citizens faced, some were able to use video phones to capture images and videos of what was happening and send these to YouTube, Twitpic or Facebook.
