When I noticed an automatically generated note from one of my
email list hosting accounts at ProfitAutomation warning me that
the account was approaching the 200,000 subscriber limit, and
that I needed to increase its size, I realized that I finally
had all of the subscribers that I really "needed." That
account is one of five that I have with ProfitAutomation,
and I also have one with Aweber.

So, while I still have a goal of building my database to over
1 million subscribers before the end of 2008, subconsciously I
have to admit... that's somewhat for "bragging rights."

As I studied list building over the years, I eventually realized
that a more important question than how to grow your list is
"How do you keep loyal subscribers."

Growing a large list is fairly simple... depending upon your
definition of large.

It's as simple as:

- Having a subscribe box on every page of your website

- Having a subscribe box somewhere in the backend of each
sales processes

- Giving people a very specific reason for subscribing (telling
them what benefit they'll gain from being on your list)

- Using testimonials from happy subscribers to prove that
other already enjoy your ezine

- Focusing your ezine on a tightly niched topic that your
audience has a real interest in

There are other things that you can do such as joint ventures,
and finding ways to get in front of other publishers'
audiences, but it all centers around answering the question of
"What's in it for me?" that all of your potential subscribers
have.

Once you get subscribers though, how do you keep them?

My friend Paul Myers, in his ebook, "The Amazing List Machine"
taught me that you simply deliver to your subscribers what you
promised them when they first joined your list.

If your ezine is on affiliate marketing, then your content
teaches them affiliate marketing.

If your ezine is on website traffic generation then your
content teaches them about website traffic generation.

If your ezine is on cooking (as one of mine is) then you teach
them to cook.

Sounds fairly simple doesn't it?

If you give your subscribers what you promised them when you
enticed them to join your list, they should stay on your list,
and read your newsletters, provided their needs don't change.

For many ezine publishers, the tougher question becomes "How do
I monetize my list without driving off subscribers." After all,
isn't that why most of us started a newsletter?

Yes, it's fun writing something that people enjoy reading. It's
nice getting emails telling you how long they've been a
subscriber, and how much of a difference your lessons have made
in their lives.

However, that won't put food on your table. So, how do you
monetize your list?

The answer is that you offer them goods and services directly
related to the topic of your list. If your list is on cooking,
then you offer them cookbooks, and cooking gadgets, and perhaps
cooking videos... or live workshops.

If you ezine is about list-building then you offer them
supplemental courses on list-building. You offer them software
that automates the process more. You offer them case-studies
that show how others are building large, responsive lists.

The whole process is fairly simple when you step back and look
at it. You entice subscribers to join your list by promising
them exactly what they want (that you can deliver). You keep
them by delivering what you promised. Finally, you monetize your
list by selling them things that make it easier for them to get
what they were looking for when they first joined your list.

Take a few minutes now and examine your process. Honestly look
for weak points in your system... and then fix them. Then you
too will one day realize the you no longer need to focus on
growing your list. Then the challenge becomes deepening the
relationship that you have with list members, although you should
have been focused on that all along too :-)

The products are outside the Internet marketing

On a small test mailing that I did, the page converted at
11.5%... but I'm sure that's not typical.

If your customers are looking for something outside
the IM niche, or something other than all of the
big ticket product offers that they are being bombarded
with, this should convert very well for you.

His websites have been ranked by Alexa as some of the highest
traffic websites in the world.

Lets just say he knows how to get MASSIVE AMOUNTS of traffic.

And he does it with out Google, SEO, or any search engines.

You always knew there was more to traffic than just SEO or Adwords.

Last year, he accepted 30 students who each paid $25,000 to learn
how he does it.

Right now his top student is making over 2.2 million a month!

And now, for the first time ever, his traffic tactics are
exposed in this video.

By the way...

One word of caution... business people who have applied his
techniques have reported extreme flooding of sales and many have
had their merchant accounts blow up! So make sure you follow
his advice about stocking your inventory and warning your merchant
accounts BEFORE you apply this stuff.

It was a great ebook written by inner circle member Rob
Richards. What was really eye-opening about it though
was how he actually repurposed some of MY material in
putting his package together.

Absolutely ingenious, and value-packed.

I found something that IS working for me, and shared
it in an email to my ezine earlier today... without
mentioning that this is what I'm actually doing.

Anyway, since filters may have blocked a few emails,
I wanted to post that note here too:

Here is is:

Git Off The Couch

I'm going to warn you right now, the topic of this e-mail is a
bit outside of the ones you usually get from me...

And it's a bit long-winded too, but that should just tell you
how important I consider the subject...

See, here at Limitless Marketing we usually discuss products and
services that will help you grow your businesses, and generate
killer revenues and profits too.

Well, this new service from my friend Glenn Grundberg and his
partner Joshua Morris is really NO different.

Here's what I mean. As marketers, we sometimes get caught up in
the daily whirlwind of marketing and forget one simple truth:

It doesn't matter HOW much you make if you're not able to enjoy
it!

That's why I felt it was so important to get this e-mail to you.

Glenn and Josh have developed a powerful and exciting new plan-
called Personal Distance Training (PDT)- to Rapidly strip off
weight (or put it on, if that's what you need!), and get you
fitter and healthier...looking and feeling better...with more
energy and stamina than you've felt in years...

And do it painlessly, in just minutes a day- and from the
comfort of your own home or office!
http://TheRealSecrets.com/IronStrongFitness/

At Iron Strong Fitness, they have leveraged their insider
knowledge and experience as top-rated, certified and licensed
Personal Fitness Trainers...

Into an incredible online platform and fitness membership of a
scope and quality usually reserved only for celebrities or the
very wealthy.

Here's how it works:

When you join the Iron Strong PDT program, you will be given a
powerful set of fitness and weight loss tools, including:

* An Exhaustive Fitness Library chock-full of vital health,
diet, and workout articles including my favorite, the "15 minute
Fat Blaster" ;-)...

* Full access to an incredible Video Library of over 100 workout
routines and exercises that will show you proper form and safe
techniques to explode your results...

* Member's ONLY forums keyed to your training level where you
will personally interact with not only Iron Strong's Top
Trainers, but also Glenn, Josh and Brittany- the guys who TRAIN
the trainers...

* And much, much more...

But the REAL power of this sensational program is this:

When you become an Iron Strong Client, you will be assigned to a
Real, Live Human. Your Very Own Personal Trainer! Think of what
your pals are going to say when you drop THAT one on them at the
next gathering ;-)

Yup- unlike other online "fitness mills", Iron Strong Fitness
Hand-Crafts EVERY client's exercise prescriptions, diet
prescriptions and exercise regimens individually-meticulously
basing them on each individual client's personal body type,
goals, and health history, among other critical factors.

Then, once you have your prescriptions and regimens, it doesn't
stop there- these guys refuse to just dump you in your living
room or on a gym floor somewhere with your prescription
print-out clutched in your hot little hand...

Oh no- in fact it's just the beginning.

You will have a connection to your Trainer via a Secure and
Private Messaging System, where you can contact them any time
you like- to get answers to your questions, share your concerns,
and celebrate your Triumphs!

And here's the kicker- while you can contact them any time you
like: via PM, on the forums, or even by toll free call if you
are in the US or Canada, or Skype if you're not...

You may not have to...They are gonna call YOU.

That's correct- once you're on the program, you are FAR from
forgotten- in fact they claim they are not going to LET you
fail. And they back that up with their Iron Strong Guarantee,
too.

Look- fitness doesn't just happen to you. High energy, the
feeling of power, and the satisfaction of looking great doesn't
just come over you like magic. There is a bit of effort
required.

But if you make that effort, the benefits to your health and
strength will spill over into Every Area Of Your Life...

Even your marketing!

So Git Off The Couch, and I'll see you inside :-)

Oh, I almost forgot: As a special favor to me, Glenn (who
happens to be a TIMIC member :) has agreed to offer you, my
valued subscribers, an *exclusive rate* on this phenomenal new
membership. You won't find this ANYWHERE else but Right Here,
Right Now. Just use coupon code WillieC (case sensitive) at
checkout for a nice discount ;-)

This link will be good for three days ONLY, until 11:59:59 PM on
5/4/08 so don't delay: save over 30% off the normal rate before
Glenn puts the price back to normal and launches this incredible
service to the public.

Armand and I have been friends since late 2003 when we
met at Dr. Bob Silber's seminar in the Florida Keys. He
spoke at the first seminar that I hosted, which was just
4 months after attending my very first seminar.

As you can see, I don't spend a lot of time agonizing
over a decision after making it. I attended my first
seminar, decided to host my own, emailed a few friend,
and four months later... did it.

That first seminar was a bit of a challenge, but being
a seminar host was one of those creditential that I
wanted at the time... so I quickly figured it out. I
wrote about the challenges of that first seminar in my
biography, "Git Off The Porch," which you'll find at
http://GitOffThePorch.com :-)

Back to the seminar I'm at now...

I attended primarily because I wanted to catch up with
a lot of old friends, and also iron out the details of
two projects with joint venture partners.

As I milled around in the bar/restaurant last night
the one question that I got was "what are you working
on now?" That naturally led to whoever I was talking
to sharing the details of their latest project with me.

As I reflected upon the joint ventures that I've taken
on over the past two YEARS, practically ALL of them have
been with members of The Internet Marketing Inner Circle.
I pointed this out to several people last night, and they
went over to join the site.

The Internet Marketing Inner Circle is at:
http://TIMIC.ORG

Reflecting upon how I now do joint ventures drove home
a number of important points... points that I frequently
teach, but that I also live.

1) I tend to prefer JV'ing with people that I actually
know. Since I spend HOURS some days brainstorming and
networking on the member-only focus at The Internet
Marketing Inner Circle, it's only natural that that's
where I'd find most of my JV partners.

Members of TIMIC are encouraged to use their real
names on the forum, and I teach those who will listen
that they should NOT do business with people who hide.
Would you go into an offline partnership with
someone who refused to tell you who they were? I harp
on this point, and teach what experience has taught me
works best in growing your online business on the forum.

The forum is actually where I do MOST of my online
teaching. Since it is such a caring and sharing
community, I enjoy helping fellow members out.

2) I tend to prefer promoting products for people who
reciprocate. They don't have to have a huge list, or
busy website, or be well-know... they just need to
acknowledge that I have "pet projects" too, and
approach me from that angle.

3) I like working on group projects since it's usually
easier to launch a project by leveraging the assets
of many rather than just depending upon your own
resources. In TIMIC we're actually in the process
of writing another group ebook... one that will feature
short chapters from 100 members.

Anyway, I DO highly encourage you to join TIMIC. It's
my online family... and "family takes care of each
other" :-)

I'll close by pointing out to you a free gift from
Dan Kennedy plus a chance to earn $5174 in his materials.
Dan is my favorite marketing "guru" and I own a HUGE
library of his materials. It has paid off handsomely.

blog. I take a lot of pictures at these events.

"Willie,

In my 40 some years I have had the opportunity to read many
popular "self help" books, such as Psyco-Cybernetics by Maxwell
Maltz, MD and Dan Kennedy, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
and the Richest Man in Babylon by George S. Clason. While I must
admit I gained a tremendous magnitude of knowledge from each of
these books; none of them have moved me as much as "Git Off The
Porch."

Your story of how you rose from poverty to prosperity is not
only uplifting, but also a testimonial to anyone who has an
ounce of will to succeed in this thing we call "Life." One may
not be able to help the fact that they are born into a family of
poverty. However, it is also a well known fact, as 'Git off the
Porch" so clearly emphasizes, that you don't have to stay there.
You can rise up higher if you have the willpower and desire to
do so.

Life has so many great things to offer if we are only willing to
accept “the gift."

Your dedication to your work, family and to God is something to
be commended and I offer my utmost respect. Yes, there IS a
reason that Willie Crawford is known as "The Most Honest Man In
Internet Marketing."

I especially related to your “Hit It, And Then Quit” theory.
Although it’s something I have known for many years… I certainly
needed that reminder.

Thank you for sharing your life story with me, having read it...
I feel an overwhelming sense of humbleness and know I have
emerged a better man because of it.

Congratulations on authoring such a well defined piece of work.

All the best of success!
