What is a Squeeze Page?
Recently, James Grandstaff revealed something that I found quite interesting and frankly it fits in very well with our continued suggestions concerning list building.
If you’ve been around the IM (internet marketing) scene for awhile, you’ve most likely heard the term “squeeze page” before, right? Also commonly referred to as a “lead capture page.” At least that’s what I thought. 
Well, James surveyed approx. 500 people on his list who are interested in making money online. Many stated they were interested in affiliate marketing, product creation, MLM, etc…
One of the questions was “Do you know what a “Squeeze Page” is?”
68.05% answered yes and 31.95% answered NO.
To be honest… I was shocked that 31.95% said no, which tells me we are not doing enough in our training to educate more people of the value in first using a squeeze page, but more shocked they didn’t know what it was?
Guess more shocking especially among us traffic exchange users is that we continually stress squeeze pages/lead capture pages to build your lists as one if not the most valuable uses for your traffic exchange credits.
What about you?
In light of this shocking survey data I decided to write this post today to go over the very basics of what a squeeze page is and why you should be using them in your business (if you are not already.)
And for those of you who already use them, pay attention. You will probably learn something too. Make better use of your traffic exchange credits and get much better results from you overall advertising.
Here goes…
A squeeze page which is also known as a “lead capture page” or “name squeeze page” is a simple web page with one purpose; to get your visitor to give you their name and email address so you can follow-up with them. That’s it.
One of the best ways to get someone to opt-in to your squeeze page is by offering something of high perceived value such as a mini ecourse or a highly targeted eBook.
For example, let’s say you are promoting a multi-level marketing business opportunity. The products are great and you are a raving fan.
Most people would just start promoting the website the company supplies. I say no. This is a perfect opportunity to implement the use of a squeeze page and offer something of value first.
That way, you collect the leads, you follow-up with an introduction of yourself and begin building a long lasting business relationship.
In sales, what we are really selling is “us” first, then the product.
You always want to provide value first. Once your prospects warm up to you, then it’s time to ask the right questions to determine if your product or business opportunity can help solve their needs.
If you’d like to see a high quality, high converting squeeze page that James has put together, you can visit the link below.
It’s important to read the “thank you” page on the other side, use the ideas and see how the whole process works.

Clicking the above link, entering your info, will get you more than just the free copy of “Discover How To Get Rich In Any MLM Program.”
You will find more bonus downloads and be privy to my follow up email series which you can copy for your own use later. All of this done through James’s system, which you can easily do as well.
So, now do you know what a “squeeze page” is or did you know already? Do you also see the value of using a squeeze page? Do you fully understand how to set one up properly?
If you answered no to any of those questions, I highly suggest you check out James’s new system and training. One of the greatest things about any of James’s programs, and I still use the original, is the training video’s. They are so thorough, detailed to the point anyone can understand how to set up and use them.
In this latest program he has out done himself. Even if you don’t promote Instant MLM Squeeze Pages, the instructional videos, training, traffic resources, and other ideas are so valuable.
Personally don’t know why you wouldn’t promote it, since it offers so much you could pass on to others, but that would be your choice. This one is a complete package with so many options.
Please check this out for yourself, take James up on his special trial offer, pay attention to the entire process, watch the training videos to see what I’m trying to tell you with text only. He does a much better job with his video’s. Here’s the link: IMSP
As always, let me know what you think.

Hi Ray,
As you know, I’m working hard to start building my lists and I’m working on some simple, fast-loading splash pages for the traffic exchanges.
So, this is a topic that is high on my interest list right now.
I went to the squeeze page and signed up for your list and I look forward to reading the messages to see what is being promoted, and how, with this new system.
However, I already have a bit of a bad taste in my mouth, just from the downloaded ebook and the “thank you” page after submitting my contact info.
I don’t see any reason for James to lie and say that the $1 discount is available only from the “thank you” page, when clearly it isn’t true. The same offer is available from within the ebook.
So, if he’s lying about that, where else is the truth being stretched or broken?
Yet, I’ll strive to keep an open mind and I look forward to reading the messages I’ll receive from your list.
This is a subject I intend to master and I appreciate all your help and advice.
Obviously, I have a block somewhere, because each part seems so simple, yet I struggle to comprehend the entire marketing system. But, and this is important, I’m working on it.
Thanks for telling us about this.
Act on your dream!
