			| How to Build a Responsive List 
 Everything you read concerning Internet Marketing tells you
 that you must have a list to succeed. That's true but it
 doesn't go far enough! If no one pays any attention to what
 you have to say, your list is worthless.
 
 Here are some tips on how to get the response you want from
 your list:
 
 Give Your Subscribers Time and Reason to Trust You.
 
 Most marketers are too impatient. They think that just
 because someone has agreed to receive their ezine, emails,
 etc. they are going to run right out and buy everything
 they recommend. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
 
 It takes time to build rapport with those on your list. You
 have to let them get to know you; learn what makes you
 tick. Here are few ways you can do that:
 
 If you have an ezine or newsletter that contains nothing
 but ads, with maybe an article thrown in here and there for
 good measure, you aren't going to build anything but
 disinterest. Tell your readers about you! Let them into
 your life. Let them know what's important to you; what your
 thoughts are. Just relate to them like a real person.
 
 You have to prove to them that you aren't just focused on
 the almighty buck. You have to show them week after week
 that you want to help them succeed. Give them ideas and
 tips that will help them along the path to that success.
 
 Don't Throw Every Product That Comes Along at Them.
 
 If you want your subscribers to trust you, you have to be
 very careful what you recommend to them. Make sure it's a
 quality program or product before you endorse it. That
 means you have to have personal experience with it. How can
 you honestly recommend anything that you've never used or
 been a part of?
 
 If you're selective with your recommendations, eventually
 your list will trust what you say and at least check out
 your recommendations. If the product or service is
 something they can benefit from you'll have a new customer
 or affiliate.
 
 If you always make the best
 
 
				
 interests of your subscribers
 your first priority they will come to realize that.
 Remember, if you want a responsive list you have to provide
 solutions to their problems. The only way you will ever
 succeed is to help them succeed.
 
 Don't Bombard Them!
 
 How many ezines or lists have you subscribed to where you
 receive multiple emails everyday? How long does it take you
 to click on the "unsubscribe" link? No one wants to feel
 that s/he's being hounded.
 
 Most people understand that we all have to earn money and
 they will be receptive to the occasional extra mailing.
 However, if you abuse that understanding you'll find the
 size of your list decreasing rapidly.
 
 Sure, if there's something exciting that you feel will
 really benefit your readers, by all means let them know
 about it. But . . . we all know this doesn't happen every
 day. The more "exciting" announcements you send, the less
 your subs will respond. Finally, horror of horrors . . .
 they'll just stop paying any attention to your emails at
 all.
 
 Finally, Follow the "Golden Rule" . . .
 
 Treat your subscribers the same way you want to be treated.
 Respect their time and intelligence. Let them know you're
 there to help them and, when they ask for that help, always
 go the extra mile to provide it. The Internet may be a
 gigantic network but in many respects it's a small,
 interwoven community. If we help one another, we all
 succeed.
