My friends ask me, “How you can create a product or join a program and earn money overnight?” I never share this publicly but when my friends ask me, I do share with them privately. The answer is “build your own list”. Do you think all the ads you see from the website about make money overnight are just scam? I don’t think so. I mean yes, they might be scam but why not stop for a while and think what if they are real and what they do to make it become real? I’m not a negative person. What I do is I go and find out their secret. Unfortunately, they have no secret and they just tell you openly they have build a huge list and this make them success to earn money overnight.

Let’s take our Super Affilite Marketer Ewen Chia as example. Many of us have opt in to get his free gifts, free ebooks, free information and yes, we are in his list. He provides great information to us via email and one day, when he creates a brand new product and recommend to you, saying that this is going to help you in your affiliate marketing success, I let you to do the calculation how many people in his list can’t wait to take the money out from the pocket and get his product.

This is why people can make good money overnight and they simply not scam. Simple math, you have 1000 in your list, 100 buy your product at $10, you earn $1000. You don’t even need to have degree to do the simple calculation. So, the secret is List Building.

In Network Marketing, unless you still doing offline marketing, otherwise list building is just so important for your online business success. Let me share with you a third party’s experience:

My Experience With Network Marketing List Building

I’ve been in and out of network marketing for several years and have made hundreds of mistakes. One thing I’m ashamed to admit, is that I’ve spent A LOT of money buying products that I never got much use out of.

I’ve taken the opportunity to learn from my mistakes. I wanted to know what it was about those products, and the way they were advertised, that made me want to buy them (knowing why you make the purchases you make, you can better apply this in your own attraction marketing).

There was one thing I noticed in common with almost all of my purchases. The people I had purchased from, had all done a good job of getting me onto their email list (or network marketing list if your focus is mlm). They did this even before they tried to sell me anything at all.

In fact, in almost every case, I had read these people’s emails, watched their videos and come to know them through their marketing messages.

They had provided a lot of value to me and my life with their tips and training. Therefore, it was only natural for me to trust them and buy their stuff (The fact that I didn’t benefit from the products is my fault). I have come to know firsthand the power that list building can have on one’s promotional efforts.

This sharing is taken from “How Network Marketing List Building Helps Internet Attraction Marketers Build a Long Term Business”. I recommend you read his full article and you will definitely gain knowledge from the reading.

What are special reports?

Special reports are short reports that contain helpful information on a subject. The reports are anywhere from a few to 30 or so pages in length. If you have the know-how, you can write them yourself or hire a writing service to do it for you. There is very little work involved in creating them but they are versatile tools for building an online business.

One popular subject for special reports is how-tos. They direct a reader, step by step, how to do something. If you are knowledgeable with computer software and hardware, that is a perfect niche for special reports on your website. People are always having trouble figuring out their computers and you could help.

Marketing special reports

There are options for marketing your special reports. If you are trying to build a business list of customers, use these special reports as a freebie when any visitor signs up to be a part of your email mailing list. For this type of promotion, use a shorter report like a five page report on how to navigate problems with Windows Vista (if your website has a computer niche).

You can create a five-part course and use the first part as the free promotion. It is your hook. Once they sign up for the mailing list, you can grant them access to the other installments through emails that also advertise your website products. Signing up for a business newsletter subscription can also be the reason to gift a free special report.

Making money

All of your special reports don’t have to go towards list building. Besides your other products or services, you can sell special reports on your website. Many reports sell for between $5 and $20 a piece, but if you offer very valuable information, you can command a higher price. Sell single reports or create various courses to interest your customers.

People love to learn about money-making opportunities. They will pay the money for any information that is a how-to guide to making money on and offline in various ways. How have you made money? Begin there with the subject of your special reports.

As your business grows, create an affiliate program. This gives customers a way to help you make more money and also make some for them. Offer certain special reports as additional compensation for reaching a certain selling level in the affiliate program.

There are a number of ways to use special reports. As you build your library and your lists, alternate the free promotional reports and continue to sell your entire library, creating combination offers such as Buy Two, Get One Free.

While your special reports are building your contact list, they are also making you money. With such a low cost to create them, your profit margin will rise.
