Having your own quality e-mail list is very important to being a success with Internet Marketing.
But how important is size when it comes to building your list? Some marketers have lists of tens of thousands of people and others have lists maybe several hundred strong.
Which one has the advantage? Having a huge list is great for a persons ego but it does not always translate into big money.
The key to a profitable list is it's responsiveness, and a small e-mail list many times can be more responsive than a large e-mail list.
Case in point one internet marketer has a list of well over 50,000 subscribers but he does not cultivate this list on a regular basis but another marketer has a list of a little over 6,000 people.
In one campaign that they competed together the marketer with the smaller list won by 30% in profit.
On a regular basis the person with the smaller list outperformed the person with the larger list in conversion and sales every month.
So as you can see size of ones list really doesn't matter at all what is important is the Responsiveness of that list, that is the key to any profitable list building campaign.
So how do you build a responsive list? By cultivating a relationship with your subscribers.
Let them get to know that you want more for them then just to sell them something.
As an internet marketer I belong to a lot of individuals marketing lists and it gets kind of old, every time I see some of their names in my email box I know they want to sell me something.
No Hello, here is a tip for you or thank you for all your support.
But on the other hand the few in my opinion that do it right cultivate their list, they don't always sell but give you free information of value and tips as well.
Those who cultivate their list in a way that leaves their subscribers thinking that, this marketer really cares about my success and is very helpful will always out perform those that are only about the money.
If this is the pattern you set for yourself you will find that your subscribers will soon get tired of your constant sales and asking for money that they will soon unsubscribe from your list.
We all know the type.
The person that every time we see them they ask for money.
What do you normally do with them? You avoid them.
And that is the same with marketers that always sell, sell, sell.
You will eventually start to avoid them by not reading their mail.
So when it comes to the size of an e-mail list, you will find that it doesn't matter if you have a list of 500 subscribers or 50,000 subscribers, your money will be made in proportion to how your list is cultivated and the relationship you build with your subscribers.
If you give your subscribers value they will keep coming back for more.
