Build Your Business with an Opt-In email List

I went from stalking the mall for prospects to creating over 14,386 names on my list using the Internet. Download Ty Tribble's MLM Web Secrets. It's my free gift to you for visiting.

One of the best ways I have found to build a Network Marketing business is through the use of an opt in email list. Strangers are way more likely to give you an email address than a phone number.

Here are the basics:

1. Collect email addresses by networking and interacting with people. This can be done in person, over the phone, or on line.

2. Send out a weekly email to your list. Include valued information such as a link to an article that you found interesting along with product promotions and a conference call schedule. Don't just "pimp your deal", make sure there is real value in your email.

3. Keep sending the weekly email until the person either becomes a customer, becomes a business partner, or opts out of your email.

The important thing is not to give up. I have had people become customers after 4 months of emails (that's 18 emails!) because we ran a promotion that really interested them. Be sure to include at least 2 ways for the person to opt out of your list and have fun.
