The Money Is NOT in the List

I also found out the hard way that the money is not in the list. You are corect that it's the relationship with the list. Now some are good at this but most are not. I am not.

When I started out I built a list of over 25000 and I was not even making enough to pay the sutoresponder costs and getting the usual spam complaints. I just deleted the list and moved on.

Now the point I am making is you can make a good living online without a list despite what the gurus say. Work at what you are good at and if it's building a relationship with your list thats fine but don't believe all the hype.

If you read Dennis Becker's 5 Bucks A Day, he say the money is not in the list, but the project list. What he means by that is taking time to brainstorm a list of projects that can produce income.

People will buy from you when they're ready for their own reasons and not yours. If you give up the need to sell and pimp offers to them, then sales will increase without you trying.

You're correct in that you need to build a relationship with your list. Too many people these days see a list as a limitless income stream. It pays to take a step back and remember that every operson on the list is a real person with dreams and desires and then work out how you're going to serve them. Once you provide real service to them then the money will follow.
