How I Added Over 165 Subscribers in Less Than One Week
Let me reiterate every other marketer and say that having your own list of subscribers can make a huge impact on your business.
I don't need to go on and on about the benefits though, because I want to focus on how you can start building your list and gaining a large amount of subscribers in no time flat.
And... not have to pay for them! It will cost you absolutely NOTHING.
It isn't hard at all, and I will show you step-by-step how you can do it.
First of all, you must have your own product. Now don't freak out on me and say that you can't afford to create your own product and that you don't have the time.
If you have 30 minutes to spare, and quite frankly why wouldn't you have 30 minutes to spend investing on your business's future, then you can do this.
The key is getting your hands on some PLR content. PLR is simply Private Lable Rights content that you have the right to do whatever you want to it. You can get PLR articles, ebooks, software and whatever else you can think of.
A great FREE resource on PLR products is www.plrwholesaler.com
For me, I chose an ebook in the form of a Microsoft Word document. Here are the steps I took:
1. Open the document and read through the information, correcting any spelling or grammar errors. Add some legal information, a personal note from yourself and a picture, add your website address in the footer of every page.
2. Then, create an ebook out of the content. Fine-tune the details until everything looks the way you want it. Give your new ebook a title and save it as a .pdf.
3. Create a graphic for your ebook. I have Photoshop so I got my hands on some action scripts to create some really nice ebook covers, since I don't know how to do it myself ;)
4. Once the graphic is created it's time to upload the ebook and graphic to your web server. It should take no more than a minute or two depending on how big your files are.
Now it's time to promote your new ebook. I created a blog post about my new ebook, twittered it, advertised in forums and such. The crazy part is that I never asked for a single name or email address... just a direct download.
I say crazy because to some this may seem to be very crazy, but soon you'll understand why. Besides, if you create your ebook right you will have a link to your website or affiliate website.
So how did I get so many subscribers from this ebook when I never asked for any email addresses? Simple... JV Giveaways.
Adding your product to a JV Giveaway is by far the fastest way to build any list that I have seen. And... it is free!
So there you have it. It's been over a week now, and I still have names and emails being sent to me because someone has downloaded my ebook. It couldn't be any easier than that.
Here are some resources to create free ebooks:
Free PDF Printer Drivers
http://www.pdf995.com/download.html - Download the Pdf995 Printer Driver, PdfEdit995 and Signature995 files. There's instructions on the site on how to use them. The PdfEdit995 will be used to activate your links inside the PDF, since they will be non clickable at first.
https://www.pdfonline.com/convert_pdf.asp provides a .doc to .pdf converter, however your clickable links will not work unless it is the actual URL, so you won't be able to use any anchor text links.

If you don't have Photoshop there are free picture editors that will do pretty much the same thing that these scripts will do. You'll just have to do some searching to find them.
