How I got 4000 Email Subscribers In 24 hours
When I started out as an Email Marketer many years ago, I needed subscribers so I devised a cunning plan that worked flawlessly.
This is what I did.
Step One — Reach Out
I reached out to every email marketer I knew and I asked if I could give them a free report that I wrote that they could give to their audience.
To sweeten the deal I told them that I would include all their affiliate links in the report.
I also told them I would only have this available to two people.
The first two who replied were the ones I allowed to distribute the report.
Here is what I would Do if I were Starting Over
Step Two — The Set up.
I created a free report and a unique landing page for each of the marketers. It said something along the lines of:
“Special For Subscribers Of <Name>”
In the report, I referenced the value I got from the marketer and also inserted their affiliate links for three products.
The marketers involved needed to have as little work to do as possible. I even offered to write them an email if they wanted.
Step Three — The Results
After 24 hours, I had a list of over 4000 news subscribers that I could give value to BEFORE trying to sell to them.
It was then just a case of nurturing those subscribers and showing them I gave good advice and could be trusted.
Why This Worked
This worked because I made a simple offer that didn’t require the marketers to do any work; it was just all upside for them.
They made money from the affiliate links and I built a list.
The lessons to take away from this are:
• Think outside the box
• Take action, you never know what will work
• People are fundamentally lazy , give them a good offer that requires them to do very little, and you have a good chance to succeed.
