Internet Marketing ideas: The Money Is In The List … what list?

January 14th, 2008 · 4 Comments

An old adage among Internet marketers is “the money is in the list”.

What they mean is that the bigger your email list, the larger your income. Theoretically.

I teach differently, actually. Not to say that an email list isn’t valuable, because it is, if it’s targeted enough, and if you treat the people on the list right, and if they’re responsive …

But my teaching is about how to earn 5 Bucks a Day. Not how to earn $500 by sending out an email.

The strategy I teach, in a very quick nutshell is:

  • set a goal
  • construct a list of projects that can conceivably earn you $5 or more a day in recurring income
  • every week focus like a mad dog on doing one of those projects until complete
  • lather, rinse, repeat

Do a 5 buck a day project every week successfully and at the end of the year you’ll be making $250 a day (after taking 2 weeks off for vacation), but often you’ll find you’re making more than that because some projects work out better than expected (some worse, as well, but it averages out usually to your favor).

So do you still need to buy my book? Maybe not, if you understand and appreciate the steps above and are a self motivator and don’t need examples of 5BaD projects and don’t care about our members forum that has several thousand dollars worth of free reports and access to a great community to help you.

But back to the list aspect.

To me, the money is in the project list. When you first adapt the 5 Bucks a Day strategy, I ask you to sit down for several hours in a spot where you won’t be interrupted and brainstorm every conceivable way you can make $5 a day by working on a project for a week.

And then I ask you to add to the list every time a new idea pops into your head.

The bigger the list, the more 5-dollar bills there are in there, and your goal is to get them off the list and into your bank account.

Sure, building a large targeted email list of people that respond to your attempts to get them to buy what you’re selling is great, if you can do it, but believe me, the money is in your project list is a truly phenomenal asset.

It’s like your own personal gold mine. Need a raise? Look to your list. Work a week. Bam.

And don’t turn up your nose at $5 a day, that’s $1825 a year, after all. That’s why I’d rather earn $5 a day instead of earning $500 by sending out an email.
