List Building - It's All About You Not Your Product! Find Out Why!

90% of people fail in this Indsutry, I will tell you why this is and how you can be part of the 10% that succeed by building a list that you can sell to.

The main reason so many people fail is because the pursue people like crazy. They are new to the Internet Marketing Industry and are desperate to make their first sale they put off people form buying their product with their in your face sell tactics that come across as spamming!

By only going on about your product and how good it is you will come across as a desperate salesman. This makes you look unprofessional and it will put people off from wanting to hear any more from you. You build a list by giving people a reason to hear more from yourself; this is not done by shouting about how good your product is.

So you're probably thinking to yourself now how do you go from broke and desperate to someone that has prospects calling them up, making the list building process a piece of pie...well here you go:

First of all forget the idea of chasing people or targeting people because you need their money; even if you are broke do not let it show!

This is done by branding yourself as a leader within your market by giving valuable information relating to your market, this comes in the form of articles, blog posts, videos etc. You do not have to of been involved with your market for years to have valuable knowledge that can help somebody who has no experience.

Therefore you can gain status and become a leader by teaching people about your market. Think about it, if a guy has done a video about a niche in internet marketing what would you think of that person? You will look up to him because he's done a video on internet marketing so he must be a pro, you will want to hear more from this guy as he know his stuff and can help you out.

By branding yourself rather than your product people will want to hear more from you and will be willing to provide you their details (email address etc) in order to find out more about yourself. This is exactly how list building works. It might seem easy as pie and it is, however so many Internet Marketers do not do this, instead they use sell,sell,sell tactics that do not attract anyone!

People will want to hear more from you because it's human nature for everyone who isn't a leader (prospects) to want to join someone who is (you) as you can provide them with help, support and advice that they need. The reason I have such knowledge in Internet Marketing is because my mentor was a successful Internet Marketer that shared his knowledge with me.

Give valuable information, deliver it with confidence, give yourself value and people will look up to you. They will become part of your list and this is how it's done! This is what so many supposed mentors never teach, now you know it go out and become a leader!
