Newsletter Tips - Now You're Building a List, What Do You Send to Subscribers?

Now you've made the decision to start building an email list - but the question is, what do you send to subscribers? One problem that most new marketers face is what to send to their list. Those first few emails are pretty easy to write, thanking those who signed up for becoming a subscriber, giving your subscribers a little "glimpse" into what you do, etc. After those first two or three messages, it can be tough. What to send? If you're planning on sending out a weekly or monthly newsletter, we'll talk about a few ideas in this article.

First of all, put the intimidation behind you. Don't be afraid to mail your list; after all, they signed up so they could hear more from you! What you don't want to do is promote an affiliate product (or your own product, for that matter) in every message. In general, most marketers promote in about every 2nd or 3rd mailing. Promoting in every mail you send out will lead to a great number of people on your list unsubscribing, which you definitely want to avoid!

Now, here are a few newsletter ideas to get your creative juices flowing.

First of all, a newsletter does not have to be formatted like a newspaper, and you don't have to have everything just "so-so." Your subscribers didn't sign up with you to see how proficient you are at formatting - they want something of value. Share a relevant news story, video or even a coupon code.

Many marketers are afraid to send their subscribers to any site but their own, but you really should share good information with your visitors - they'll come to trust you even more. If you've read a great blog post on a blog in your niche, share it! Send a link to a forum discussion that you found really awesome. There are many things you can share in your emails, without having to fill your message with content. Short and sweet is good.

Here are a few email newsletter ideas to think about:

Link to a news story that relevant to your niche, and share your thoughts about the story with your list. Send your subscribers a quick tip or how-to that most will find helpful People love to save! Send your list news about a coupon code, special offer or sale that you ran across. Send a link to your latest blog post, or inform your list of a limited time offer on an affiliate product you are promoting. This brings up another point - it's essential that you keep up to date with the products you are promoting, and any "deals" that you need to inform your list about! YouTube videos - niche specific Q & A - Ask your readers questions about what their goals are, their specific problems, what they want to achieve - any questions relevant to your niche. When they answer, make a list of common questions and your answers, and mail it to your entire list.

Now, BEFORE you write an email, take time to consider what your want your email to accomplish. What do you feel that your readers expect from you? It's often helpful to go back and review what your "free" giveaway was that enticed your reader to sign up. Chances are, anything related to your giveaway will be useful, since that is what your reader signed up for!

How often should you email your list? This is hard to pinpoint, and depends upon your niche. Many marketers mail every day, some once each week, some every two weeks, others once a month. Once you determine how often you want to mail your list (or what would be most effective), stick to a schedule. It's very important that your subscribers know when to look forward to more from you!

Most important of all, keep all of the information you send to your list relevant to the reason they subscribed, and to your niche.

How to Build a Buyer's List of 1000+ Subscribers in 24 Hours

If you too want to build a massive email subscriber list of at least 1000 people in 24 hours, you'll want to create an optin page on your website, promote it using social media, and make it easy for others to recommend it. What's great about building your own subscriber list is that you now have traffic on demand. If you've ever wanted to get more people to see your blog post, buy your product, or join your membership site or webinar, you'll want to build a huge subscriber list just like this one.

First, get an email autoresponder system such as Aweber or iContact so that you can collect email addresses and have them in a double opt-in database that you can contact whenever you want. It's easy to signup for these services, and most charge less than 20 dollars per month. Login, create a new "subscriber list" and then generate a "web optin form." Take that form and place it on a simple webpage with nothing but a headline, three bullet points, and your optin box. Give away some quick freebie such as a short 5 page report or 5 minute video. For example, if you wanted to build a list of people interested in carpet cleaning, offer a free report giving them 5 quick tips on how to clean carpets better.

Next, take advantage of sites that already have massive traffic. Think about it, sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter will allow you to link back to your site for free. These sites organize people based on their interests, they have groups and viral components to get your message out there. Join these sites, network, build a following, and most a link back to this page.

Finally, once you've begun selling a product on the internet, you'll want to create an "affiliate program" by signing up for a service such as Clickbank. With this affiliate program, others can recommend you to THEIR subscribers, social media followers, and so on. Just send that traffic to your optin page, and then to your sales letter where you sell a product.

There's no time to wait. Get your system and funnel setup today by creating a simple optin page to collect leads. Then use social media to send those first few leads to your website, and finally create an affiliate program to reward others for sending you traffic over time.
