How To Create A Massive Contact List Overnight!

Filed under: Great Marketing Tips — admin @ 2:10 pm

Creating an opt in list of subscribers is critical to online success. It isn’t that hard if you know a couple of these
tips but most important of all is to just to do it! The biggest reason for affiliates and others seeking web income is lack of ACTION!

OK, so you’re buring with desire to get started. Here’s what to do to start building your money-producing opt in list.

I have found that I build a list very fast with a quality report, e-course or newsletter.

So you say, “but I’m not a writer?”

You need to write what people are interested in.

Not “5 Ways To Murder Your Mother-In-Law”. OOP’s that
is not nice of me to think of that :o )

Or “How To Make Dandlelion Wine”. OK, maybe you are
interested in that…:o)

But you get the idea. Write what is a hot topic that
everyone is talking about or asking about. If it’s about
murder, go somewhere else :o )

Don’t know what they are looking for? Ask them. Ask
your friends or family what they would like to know
more about in your subject field. Or if it’s marketing
put up a survey or poll form on your website or send
emails to your contacts.

Browse hot forums and see what everyone is talking
about. The messages with the most ‘views’ or ‘posts’
are the hot topics.

a few bucks subscribe.

Here are a few report ideas:

1. Tips/Ways

This is the easiest to create as all you need are a
handful of themed tips with 3-7 sentence explanations.
Presto! You have a free report!

2. Tutorial (step by step)

This is probably the report most people want. Find a
hot topic and provide step by step tutorial on solving
a problem or do something and you will become very
popular…overnight!

3. Resources

This is the EASIEST of all free reports to write. Heck
my granddaughter, Kylie, could probably write one :o )

Might take some time doing research but it’s super
easy.

“10 Ways To Link You Website”
“8 Tools Every Webmaster Should Have In Their Toolbox”

You get the idea.

4. Interviews

This is another easy one because someone else does all the
writing for you!

Develop a list of ‘burning questions to ask the
‘expert’.

Send the expert your list with a good reason to answer
them. At least a nice bio with a link to their website
and the right to distribute the report in anyway they
want.

What is probably the most important step in creating
your free report? The HEADLINE! As with ads, unless
you capture the attention of the reader in the first
1-2 seconds you won’t have many subscribers.

Here are a few headlines:

“7 Quick Tips To Overnight Profits”

“7 Quick Tips”

“7 Quick Tips I Made $650 With”

Which one would you pick? The first? In my humble
opinion it would be the last. It has two eye catching
factors. 7 and $650. People will know its not a long
drawn-out report but 7 quickie type tips and everyone
would like to make $650 by knowing these tips.

Bottom line. Remember the old worn out by don’t every
forget the famous radio station, WIIFM or WHAT’S IN IT
FOR ME. Keep that in mind every time you write a
headline and you will see 100’s or even 1,000’s
subscribing to your free report.

Paying For Your Wedding

Filed under: Relationship Stuff — admin @ 3:59 am

Many couples are opting to pay for their weddings themselves. Some couples decide to pay for their own weddings because they have not other choice, some do so as a matter of choice. The best reason to pay for your own wedding is because you do not want to compromise on how, when and where you get married and you are ready to pay for it all on your own.

The average cost of a wedding in the U.S. is over $20,000, so financing your wedding requires a serious financial commitment. The sooner you start planning and saving for your wedding, the more time you have to come up with the necessary funds. The average time between the engagement and the wedding day is 12 to 18 months. Such time frame gives you an opportunity to plan and save for your wedding. The most important task you have is to determine the total amount you wish to spend on your wedding. Then, divide the amount by the number of months to determine how much money you need to put aside each month to meet your goal. If you estimate that your wedding will cost $25,000, and you have two years until your wedding, you need to save about $1042.00 per month. Realistically, not everyone can put aside a thousand dollars each month. If you are unable to save enough to cover all the costs, you may need to start cutting costs until you come up with a figure that you can meet. Aside from cost cutting, you can do a lot by saving one everything you do. You can save by taking your lunch instead of going out, spend less on clothes and entertainment. You could also, take on a part time job to help you with your budget. You have many options.

Opening a separate savings account for your wedding may help enforce the need to save. Even if you start with a modest amount a special wedding savings account should help you make the right spending and saving decisions.

You can find ways to save money by learning as much as you can about the products and services you need for your big day. The more educated you become about prices, the more you can bargain with vendors to make sure you get the best possible deals in town.
