			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever wondered how Internet marketing experts send out a single email and make enough money to buy a car?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a little silly when you think about it. Sounds too good to be true. For most people, it is too good to be true. But not when you have the &#8220;secret weapon&#8221; those experts don&#8217;t tell you about. If you had it, you can reproduce their results without breaking a sweat.</p>
<p><span id="more-144"></span></p>
<p>That secret weapon is a buyer list.</p>
<p>Most people think that a big mailing list is the secret to wealth. It really isn&#8217;t. What really counts is the <strong>quality of the people on your list</strong>, and by that I mean, do they buy when you send out an email?</p>
<p>If they don&#8217;t, they&#8217;re just sitting there. It wouldn&#8217;t matter if you had a million people on your list. No buyers means no business.</p>
<p>So if you want to know the &#8220;secret&#8221; to making money online, it&#8217;s having a list of people who willingly hand over money when you invite them to. It&#8217;s never been more complex than that.</p>
<p>What stands in the way of most people reaching that goal is not knowing <strong>how to build a list of buyers</strong>. You can cram a list full of subscribers, but then all you have is a big list. Will they buy? Probably not, and most marketers know that they get only about 1-2% response when they send out an email.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s not bad if your list is huge, but what if you could send an email to a list of 2,500 people and get 10% of them to buy? That&#8217;s 250 sales for you!</p>
<p>Now, which do you think is easier&#8230;getting 25,000 people on your list and hoping that one-percent buy so you can get your 250 sales, or getting 2,500 buyers on your list who buy like crazy whenever you email?</p>
<p>Surprisingly, getting those 2,500 buyers is actually easier. And to tell the truth, most people with massive lists don&#8217;t even get 1-2% response when they email. It&#8217;s more like 0.05%. That means you&#8217;d have to kill yourself to build a list of 500,000 people to get those 250 sales. No, thanks.</p>
<p>Remember, quality counts more than quantity for most things, certainly for mailing lists. If you&#8217;ll focus your efforts on getting buyers to join your list, you&#8217;ll be far better off. Pretty soon, you&#8217;ll have your own six-figure stories to tell.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Squeeze pages, also referred to as lead generator pages or <a href="http://FirstOptinPage.com" target="_blank">optin pages</a>, are a very useful tool for any internet marketer.</p>
<p>Squeeze pages are very single minded pages. Their sole aim is to prize an email address from a visitor. Once they&#8217;ve signed up, you have their permission to email them again. But you need them to sign up to your list first!</p>
<p><span id="more-58"></span></p>
<p>First up, choose a template for your squeeze page. You can find landing page templates for free or for a small charge. Or you can have one designed specially for you. The free option is OK if your market isn&#8217;t saturated. Don&#8217;t use them for more competitive markets such as dieting, day trading, internet marketing and even dog training. Otherwise your potential customer will likely have seen something very similar to your squeeze page tens or even hundreds of times before. Which means they&#8217;ll be more likely to click away.</p>
<p>Next, change your template. At the very least, you&#8217;ll want to put in your own headline and bullet points. You may also want to <a title="Split test software" href="http://links.replymagic.com/split-testing/index.php" target="_blank">split test your headlines</a> to make sure that you&#8217;re getting the maximum number of sign-ups. Some people report results in the order of 70% and more sign-ups from their squeeze pages.</p>
<p>You can also test other elements on your lead generation page. Most of the time, people report that they get better results when they <a title="Audio message software" href="http://links.replymagic.com/sonicmemo/index.php" target="_blank">add audio messages</a> to their squeeze pages. Test this as well as whether the message plays automatically when a visitor reaches your squeeze page.</p>
<p>Nowadays, you will find <a href="http://OnlineVideoBasics.com" target="_blank">video </a>appearing more frequently on squeeze pages. Many marketers have found that using a &#8220;part one&#8221; video on their squeeze page with &#8220;part two&#8221; only available after sign-up is a very effective technique. If you want to take this path, make sure you leave your readers with a &#8220;cliff hanger&#8221; at the end of part one. Just like the ones they used to have om Saturday mornings at the movies. If you don&#8217;t rememer these, think of the ending of an episode of the television show &#8220;24&#8243;. Leave your viewer desperate for more. Which you&#8217;ll let them have &#8211; once they&#8217;ve confirmed their email address.</p>
