List Building Soap Box
Before we jump up on the soap box, are you receiving Soaring4Traffic email? This blog post is being sent from Aweber, maybe you will receive this and realize you haven’t. Since we are on a new server, new IP address, some members email providers are bouncing our emails.
Believe it or not, some are important. For instance, commissions received, downline notifications, special bonus days, and last but not least replies to your support questions.
We have taken every step possible with the major email providers to authenticate our server IP for better email delivery, however some of the less known are still in the blocking mode. So if you are not receiving emails from our server, please white list our domain. If you are still not receiving, would suggest changing to a Gmail account. 
Ok back to the soap box again talking about list building to increase your online results. Believe me, I wasn’t always this passionate about list building. At first didn’t understand the power nor was I very good at it. At some point not even sure when or what triggered it, became determined to learn.
Guess mainly hanging out with other TE owners and members through forums, conferences who were in fact getting good results from advertising in traffic exchanges above the norm, just wanted to see what and how they were making it work for them. If you’ve followed my emails or previous blog posts, we continually stress the need to “Brand” yourself and “build your list” using traffic exchanges. Much of this falls on deaf ears as it did me for a long time.
First there was the fear of writing an email series that would have any real value. Setting up an autoresponder was really the easy part, writing was the real issue. Then I realized that all you need to do is be yourself, write about whatever subject is your main focus. Since becoming a traffic exchange owner, this is my focus.
Focused on growing the exchange, but more importantly focused on members getting better results when using them to advertise. My gain is simple, if your results increase, you will be more active, plus hopefully tell others of your results and therefore recommend my traffic exchanges as a place to advertise. No hidden agenda here.
Hence the reason for my latest email series written for those that want to start building a list, simplified step by step with all the necessary tools, ideas, suggested email series you can copy right to your autoresponder. Also includes suggested programs, affiliate products to promote in building your business.
All are free programs, but keep in mind each will present you with an offer for more benefits. No need to be offended by these offers, its totally your choice to make. If you don’t see an advantage for you, then by all means pass them up. That simple. They are included as part of the training series so you see how and why things are done to increase one’s income.
Now here’s where you get the link to the email series called List Building Simplified. Totally free, no obligation, unsubscribe anytime. Not all of the emails are personally written by me, copied with permission, but personalized, which again is part of the training to show that you don’t have to know how to write an email series. Many affiliate programs have pre-written series provided for you.
By the way, no big secrets revealed in this series, just ideas, free programs to use, and lessons learned from those who I’ve learned from.
Don’t misunderstand, traffic exchanges are not the only place to build your list but for sure one of the best uses of your advertising credits.
Writing articles, safelists, and viral list builders come to mind as other means to increase your list building. Just as in learning how to best use traffic exchanges, each method has its own learning curve to be truly effective. In fact before you start using safe lists, save yourself lots of time and wasted effort. Get Soren Jordansen’s Ultimate Safelist Survival Guide, will be the best $10 you ever spend.
Speaking of viral list builders, one I’ve seen advertised all over the net lately and just recently realized it was created by a couple of fellow traffic exchange owners. So for the ever increasing desire to improve my list building and promote Soaring4Traffic, I signed up after chatting with one of the owners. These things do work, some of the top online marketers use them daily.
You’ve probably seen the advertisements also, its called Downline Builder Direct. Free program, yes, but again has advantages for upgrading which you will see when joining.
All right then, off the soap box for now. Hopefully, through some of these posts and emails you will begin to not only get ideas but start acting upon them to assist with your online endeavors.
That’s all for now, thanks for reading, thanks for being a member of Soaring4Traffic. Look forward to your comments.
