7 Steps To Build And Grow a Targeted Mailing List.

1- Viable blog:

Internet marketing is my topic. Probably you have brilliant ideas to write creative content. You first. Start building a station which is your blog to attract visitors and then guest post to double your traffic.

When I started Blogging, I wanted to pick affiliate marketing niche because it’s always a hot topic, you can go to jvzoo, clickbank or commission junction, get a high converting product and start promoting it to earn a commission. How about selling more than a product. You earn passive income. I liked this niche because there are:

• New products in the marketplace.
• People have money to spend.
• People buy digital products.

2- i can’t write a book:

If you can’t read, you can’t write.

Well. A lead magnet is something we write to build a response email list quickly. That means we are giving away something for free to attract, grow and convert. How about writing a book? Do you think you need to write 30 000 words or a novel?

Definitely No.

You can use a blog post that is already written in your blog and edit it by writing more creative content. This is a simple process I learned from a smart blogger who writes better content using his old blog posts.

My first book was actually different. I wrote a piece of amazing content. It was around 4000 words. I thought it was a short book. But people really care about the value not the length of the book.

3- Get new subscribers:

Amazon doesn’t give you the email addresses of its customers. You can add a link of a lead magnet on the back end of the EBook to capture leads. Remember you want to convert those readers to subscribers. Your book content is so important to make readers feel something about you before they give you their personal information.

Capturing new leads to your kindle eBook is a lot like gaining new readers to your blog posts. It’s all about writing content that is optimized for conversion. Content that provides tons of value. If you find a way to serve readers with better bonus, People will stop for a few seconds and say “wow. This person has something great to say”. So they sign up to receive your free guide.

The lead magnet can be a free downloadable eBook or free report. People won’t give you their personal information unless there is a reason for them. That’s the ultimate answer. Just make sure your first book is related to the exact same topic to build a responsive email list. If your first Book is about fitness, your free bonus has to be in fitness niche too

4- Promotion Methods:

Diversify your message. Nowadays we have social media platforms such facebook, twitter, instagram, LinkedIn and pinterest. In a few days you can build a huge following using free marketing strategies. Facebook groups are gold mine sources of traffic too.

According to Amazon. The platform offers you 5 free days to promote your book to build customer reviews and boost ranking. Email list is the biggest asset. If you email them your kindle eBook and ask for review. Many will do a favor for you.

Another effective way to drive people to your book is to pay some money on bigger companies like bookbub. They have huge number of subscribers in romance, non- fiction, business and several categories.

I prefer facebook because I have developed a strong relationship with fans and followers. If I contact them and ask for a review, they download my EBook and review it.

5- Drive awarness:

If you are not publishing more Books, if you are not diversifying, you will not build a healthy business online.

We really don’t know which books generate more traffic and which books rank super fast on Amazon. But when we publish more and serve more. When we write better content than others. We grow more and build our presence online

6- The world’s fastest Growing store:

If you want to get traffic, you have to pick a stable platform and use an aggressive marketing strategy to reach influencers. Viable idea around a topic is not enough. But it does when you do better than others.

Amazon has over 20 million of active customers who enter a keyword on its search engine to buy books. Amazon is a search engine where Customers enter a keyword to purchase something.

While Google is a search engine where users enter a keyword to read blog posts. I prefer Amazon: if iam going to write an article on my blog, why not produce over 7000 words in an EBook and sell it on the platform. I generate sales and new leads and build a viable business.

What about publishing more EBooks?

7- Where to find new readers:

Perma-Free:

Nothing compared with the power of giving free stuff. Free is the most powerful word in your business to gain and retain leads. Writers, entrepreneurs and bloggers do place a free eBook on their blogs to attract, grow and convert visitors to subscribers and clients.

I myself do this strategy because we want readers not 1, not 2, not 3 we want thousands of new subscribers. At this point we focus on driving tons and tons of value to build our tribe.  

Amazon allows you to give your ebook permanently free once your ebook is free on other retailers, kobo, nook, smashwords does this instead. i have done this, congratulations to me now its your turn. you will get more downloads because Amazon has its audience.

Your book will rank well with your keyword. more downloads means more readers and new leads. forget about selling your book and focus on building an audience. free is the most powerful marketing strategy i have ever seen on the internet.

If you are not Getting more traffic, if you are not generating hundreds even thousands of leads, its because you are not giving more value.

Step1:  Write a good book

Step 2:  write a lead magnet

Step3:  publish your book on smashwords

Step4:  publish your book on Amazon

Step5:  Make it Perm-free

Hundreds of strategies, ways and methods out there. You can write a book in a topic you are passionate about. And think about giving it away for free. Your book will rank super fast and beats all other books on that category,

 you will get hot leads over and over. Many people don’t know how to do it. Authors don’t deserve to get paid for their work unless they distribute their best work and serve more readers for free.

Amazon is a gold mine traffic source. People don’t understand, it takes a bit of time to see results. When you do the work and follow the rules you get what you want.

Kindle publishing is very effective for generating new leads. You are between two choices, you publish your book for free to get more leads or price it 0, 99 or 2, 99 to get leads and sales. I prefer both ways because if you diversify you build a healthy business online. list building
