Todd Perry, I agree with you if a person is new or hasn't built a responsive list. I have a 160k+ subscribers on my list and 4k members to one of my groups that pay me and my partners for info so I don't have to spend money but I do spend a lot of money and it pays off!
How I built my list was by personally talking to each and everyone of the people on my list. Each one of them has bought something from me in the past at one point or another but this happened over many, many years. Now I can a
There are many ways to market. However targeted marketing is by far the best. If anyone thinks they can make money online without spending something the best thing for them is to get offline and get a JOB.
To make money online you MUST spend something, rather it is time, effort, and yes money. Most programs say they are free, However if you want to really make money with them you must spend money to make more money.
Neil, why not? Aren't they the ones who need it most? This isn't to be down on you but I have the same thoughts many times so....I'm thinking out loud.
Terry, I agree with you but to tell the truth as you say that I don't really market to anyone now a days...I just talk about things and people have to ask me about it sometimes several times before I actually get around to telling them about it. I always have a list of people daily who wants to join or buy something from me.
This isn't about me but it is something to think about how others maybe pushing too hard if they aren't successful in what they are doing. I say just through info out and
ivan, in order to market to active people you have to put their interest first. No one cares about what you or I want they need their needs met first.
I use to be a slim ball about 6 years ago or so which I made a lot of money back then doing it. Then I got slimmed balled and my reputation hit the gutters...it's something you never really get back. Now I have found everyone just about that I have offended and made amends but now I'm a different person and it's hard for me to forgive myself.
Mike, it sounds like a practical application of the principle
"Be nice to people on your way up because you'll meet them on your way down." (Jimmy Durante)

ARE YOU TELLING PEOPLE TO SPEND MONEY?! You are right but things that work not many people here seem to like to hear it so it makes it hard to tell the newbies how it really is...great share thanks!
Well thats not always true. If you know your market well enough you can know exactly where to buy ads from. Highly active and targeted forums are always a good place to get high quality targeting. But no matter which way you work things, it takes work :)
Bruce, a targeted group would mean people would have to research and that means working a bit....WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU? Everything is suppose to be easy peasy. Thanks.
