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.
So first of all let’s start with why so many people fail…well it’s because they pursue people like crazy! They are new to the internet marketing industry and are so desperate to make their first sale they put people off from joining their business or buying their product with their over enthusiasm and non stop selling tactics!
If all you do is go on about how good your product is without giving any valuable knowledge about your niche you will come over as desperate. You will look unprofessional and if your product/home business was that good then surely it would sell itself. This will not result in list building.
So about now you’re probably wandering how do you do from a desperate broke person to a person that attracts leads and has people calling you up without having to chase anybody….well here you go:
Firstly ditch the idea of chasing people because you need their money, even if you do need money because you’re broke do not let it show!
This brings me to my second point; come across as a leader in your market! You do this by giving valuable information about your market through articles, blogs, videos etc. Even if you have been in your business for a week you will still know a lot more that a prospect who knows nothing but the opportunity your home business can provide. It is branding yourself!
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!
Why? Well it’s human nature for everybody who isn’t a leader to want to follow one to gain status and for support. Because I joined my mentor’s team I became associated with him and learned more and grew in the industry. I have now become a leader in internet marketing and have a vast amount of knowledge in the subject, without a mentor it would have taken a LOT longer to accomplish this.
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!
