================== ARTICLE START ==================
Donna held her breath. She slammed on the brakes, but her car
did not stop! The unfortunate deer just stood there frozen. It
did not move out of harm's way. The windshield shattered to a
thousand pieces. Not a chance the poor deer would survive the
impact of an incoming massive vehicle at 60 miles per hour!
Donna had been driving her car with a faulty braking system!
During this life and death nick of time moment, her braking
system did not respond in time to avoid a deadly head on
collision.
Fortunately Donna was okay. Her safety air bag saved her from a
certain bodily injury.
What does this action sequence of events have anything to do
with our subject? Nothing! However, there is just one thing we
need to extract out of the context of this incident-a faulty
breaking system-a faulty system-a system.
The word system is defined as an organization of functionally
units interacting together to achieve a common goal. A braking
system is organized with functional units that interact
together to help a moving vehicle to slow down and finally
stop.
If a unit in a system is missing, or is malfunctioning, it may
not help achieve toward its common goal. In the case of Donna's
car braking system there was a malfunctioning unit that
prevented the car from slowing down fast enough to avoid
colliding with a scared frozen animal on the road. Or to give
the deer enough time to react and move out of the way.
We live in a world of systems. We live in the solar system that
is part of a galaxy system. We live in a world of government
systems, law systems, school systems, business systems, and the
list goes on and on. Ultimately, we live and die by our beliefs
systems.
Some systems are discovered, some are obsolete, some are
modified, and others are created. Organized businesses rely on
many systems to be profitable. They rely on a structure system,
accounting, and a marketing system just to mention a few. Each
system may have several layers of subsystems to operate
properly.
The word system is also described as a way of proceeding. As a
method or a set of procedures for achieving something. The
literal meaning of the word system means to "cause to stand."
Therefore, if any organized business has a tested and proven
system, a proven way to do things, a set of proper procedures,
then this business will be "caused to stand" in a profitable
way.
To build your online business you must have a client base or
customer/prospect list. Building your online business is like
building a house. You do not build a house without first laying
the foundation. Before you can lay the foundation, you have to
take certain steps. You have to plan your budget, choose a lot,
hire a team of design and construction experts, choose a plan to
decide what size and style you want your house to be, and
negotiate a contract.
These are just a few of the most important steps needed before
you can even pour the foundation to build your house!
Therefore, to build your business, first you need to build a
foundation for your business, which is called the client base,
or customer/prospect list. Without it your business will not
stand strong and profitable. That is why you need to work on
laying your foundation for your business first, and a list
building system will build and cause your business to stand
profitable.
To be successful online, you have got to have a system in
place-a system to develop, and grow a massive and highly
responsive customer/prospect list for your business. To develop
this kind of list, you must have a system with a plan of action.
You need certain components, apply certain strategies, and
execute them in combination to create a synergistic outcome.
The Importance of building your own opt-in list.
Whether you are an affiliate, network marketer, or have some
type of online business, first, you must realize the importance
of building your own list. Just as a foundation is extremely
important to build a house, a client base or customer/prospect
list is extremely important to an online business. An online
marketer may promote an offer through his/her website, a
business opportunity, a service, or a product. He/she can spend
thousands of dollars in advertising, buying leads, and other
types of business promotions, and after all of that, he/she may
end up with only a few sales, and/or a few sign ups.
Many of them may say they are making money because they're
making some sales and getting some sign-ups, but they surely
will not say how much they are spending in advertising. Or how
deep a hole they are digging themselves into with credit card
debts. They will not say that in order to get a few sign ups or
a few sales they had to spend $1,200! This has happened to many
of today's top Internet marketers and they will tell you how
much money they have wasted when they were rookies, and some of
them look at it as a learning experience. But you've got to have
a massive list of responsive subscribers to make it BIG on the
Internet!
Imagine for a moment having a list of 100,000 subscribers. That
is a large number. Imagine sending out a special offer for a
valuable product to a list of that size. A product that will
earn you a $5 commission per sale, and the response rate of
your list is 3%. You can easily make $15,000 in one single
mailing! This is not a rental email list that you would pay to
send your ad. I am talking about having a list of your own, a
list you have built for your online business only. That's an
average response rate of a good list, but a highly responsive
list will yield a much higher percentage!
Now imagine having an opt-in list of 100,000 subscribers with a
response rate of 40% to 60%�The profit results would be massive!
This is exactly the sort of thing that top online marketers do.
This is what allows them to earn a six and seven figure income
with out sweating it. You have probably received emails from
top affiliate marketers announcing: "find out how I earned
$30,000 or $100,000 over the weekend." It's that possible?
Sure it is! Then they go on to tell you what they did, and so
forth. But, what they don't tell you is that they already have
an astronomical prospect list!
Top Internet marketers know how extremely important a list is
to their online business so they take care of their list. Aside
from literally spending fortunes in advertising on the Internet,
having a massive opt-in list of highly responsive subscribers is
practically the only way to be successful in the online business
world.
