You've probably heard this phrase a number of times and then got on with whatever you were doing before in your internet business. But it's time to listen up again because the money really is in the list.
All successful internet marketers have one thing in common and those who are try to make money online for ages with no success frequently don't bother with one. A list is the most crucial part of your kit for your online success and here's why.
With a list you have control over the traffic that you want to drive to your offer and traffic is the life blood of any internet business. When you have a list you can drive traffic at will to any sales page and you will have a readymade audience for whatever product you would like to create yourself.
A list is also the strongest asset that you can build online. After all, that website that you have been beavering away on may get a Google slap or disappear from the rankings but if you own your own list you can keep it to yourself or sell it, or grow it using ad swaps.
You also need to remember that this list of subscribers is a lot easier to sell to than any traffic that you will be pulling in from paid ads or free traffic sources. These are the warm leads on your list that you have been busy building trust with and they are far more likely to buy from you.
There is one key element though that you will need to take on board if you really want your list to bear the fruits of your hard labor. You will need to stay in contact with them and build a relationship with them.
That's right, this is a relationship like any other and you will need to work on it and keep in contact with your list if you really want them to buy from you. Just like you would keep in contact with your boyfriend and girlfriend on a regular basis and would suffer the consequences if you didn't it's the same with your list.
That's because having a list is not enough but rather having a loyal trusting list is worth its weight in gold. There have been examples online of guys with less than 1000 people on their list outselling others with thousands of people of theirs. And the difference here is trust and relationship building.
When you have the trust levels and relationship built up by staying in touch with them you can maximize the potential of this list of buyers.
I've got a question for you…
Would you consider opening up an office and conducting some kind of offline business without a telephone?
I'm guessing the answer is no here. 
Well if you are starting out in your online business with no auto responder you are almost doing the same thing. The auto responder is simply the number one tool that you must have in this business and here's why!
It does all the hard work for you once you have loaded it up with some quality messages that will be building trust and a quality relationship with your customers while you get on with doing something that you really like, like spending time with friends or thinking up new ways to grow your business online.
It is the ultimate relationship building tool and we all know by now what relationships equal in this business… more money in your pocket!
Now let’s switch gears here a bit and talk about the need for a sign page (squeeze page) and how crucial this is going to be in your business.
If you are currently sending people directly to the affiliate page you are committing one of the online cardinal sins i.e. you are not collecting the leads so you can sell to them again further down the road and you are not building your greatest asset online – YOUR list!
We know by now that traffic is the life blood of this business so why let it bleed away when you can be cashing in on it, and why give it all to the product owner when you can be taking advantage of it yourself.
In reality the person who you send to an affiliate page is more likely to buy from that page later on rather than now so what you will need to do is capture their details on the way to that page and send them to it again later on. If at that stage they don't buy, you still have a great opportunity here to build a relationship with them and market similar products to them later on.
If you don't capture the leads though you are going to lose out because that person is gone forever.
I hope your starting to see how important a capture page is going to be to your online business.
Note:Here are some great examples of capture pages… LizTomey.com, ReadyToGoSystems.com, MyNewbieCoach.com
Okay, so we’ve established that you must be building a list and keeping in touch with them using auto responders if you are to be a serious player in this internet marketing game, and that you should only be driving traffic to capture pages.
Whew… That’s a lot to take in, eh?
But there is yet another piece in the puzzle that you must consider if you are trying to become a success in internet marketing today.
When people come to your sign up page you must be capitalizing on the opportunity provided and making sure that you get their details. In order to do this you are going to have to have something to give them in return for their email address, and the best thing to give them to make sure that they enter their details on your capture page is a free gift.
It's hard for us to resist something that is free and so long as you're capture page is set up correctly you are well on your way to start capturing those leads and making this business work for you long term.

Now let’s talk about one of the most crucial areas that you will need to pay attention to if you want to make it online – choosing the right product!
Without choosing the right product you are going to find it very difficult to make any good money online. The reason for this is simple, some products sell and other products don't and there are literally reams of books out there that teach you about how to find these profitable niches and products in the market.
If you get the product choice wrong in your marketing campaign you are in big trouble and will pay dearly for your mistake as all your efforts can go to waste later on.
The best thing to do with product selection is not to try to reinvent the wheel but to go with proven formulae and go with products that are proven to convert and get you the results that you need.
Check out Mega Money Emails at www.MyReadyMadeEmails.com to start promoting products that will convert for you today!
And changing gears again… J
Let’s talk about the importance of words when you are communicating with your customers.
Even if you are using video today, which is catching on more and more, you are still using words and the types of words that you convey in your messages to your subscribers will have a HUGE bearing on how well they respond to you and will have a big influence on whether they take action or not.
The importance of using the right emails that are timed in the right way to build a relationship with your customer before closing the sale for you is a key element to internet marketing and there is a science to it.
What I just said right there is VERY important…
You can of course go out there on your own and do some trial and error with the whole thing but as I said before why reinvent the wheel when you have a perfectly good one in front of you.
