| Get your website to make money while you sleep
Make it worth their while to sign up If you just set up 2 simple boxes like this on your website, then not a lot will happen...
Nearly every website is asking your visitors to sign up to their database. So people tend to ignore it. So you need to do something a bit different. You need to give them a compelling, can't-stop-myself-from-signing-up reason to join your database. And it needs to be something that doesn't cost you any money.
What to offer to encourage people to sign up Traditionally, the answer is to give them a document by email that gives them the information they crave, or information they would be really interested in. You could also give them things like...
Real-world example of how to offer your free gift For example, if you are a reiki healer, you could write a guide to The 10 Quickest, Easiest and most Powerful ways to Increase your Reiki Power. Save it as a pdf file.
You tell people they will get that guide when they join your database, as a thankyou gift. Your new updated signup form might now look something like this:
Then you send your pdf file along with a thankyou and welcome message to new customers when they sign up to join your database. Or you have your software send it straight to the new customer if you have that set up to make everything hands-free for years to come. That new person has now entered your email marketing system, and will receive your promotional messages, along with any insights, wisdom, tips and advice you offer to your readers, whenever you email your database.
If you do it right, you will get people signing up at a rate of about 5 out of every 100 visitors. And if you've got a fair amount of traffic, it won't be long before your email database has grown into the hundreds... ...then the thousands... ...and even more!
But wait ! How are you going to handle thousands of emails ? Particularly if you are then going to email each of them at least 7 times?
Let's check out a solution...
