How To Use Ebooks And Free Reports To Build Your List
It doesn't need to be a 300 page ebook, it could be just a 10-20 page report, but the important thing is that it contains valuable content that would be of interest to the people in your particular niche.
It could even be a private label rights product that you have the rights to, as long as it's of sufficient quality.
Once you have this free content, there are a few ways you can use this freebie to build your list.
The first way is by creating an opt-in page where you give away the report for free in exchange for your visitors name and email address.
Create a strong headline and sell the benefits of your report, as if you were creating a sales page, and drive as much traffic to this page as possible to grow as big a list as you can.
As well as an opt-in page, you can also place opt-in forms within your web pages and blogs where you can offer your report for free, although you will have less space to sell the benefits if you go down this route.
The second way you can use free ebooks and reports to build your list is to use the power of viral marketing.
This works by selling the benefits of joining your list in the report itself, and then distributing it to as many places as possible.
You need to give people an incentive to spread this report around so one of the best ways to do this is to create a rebrandable report containing affiliate links to relevant products, which people can change to their own through rebranding software.
This will encourage them to distribute the report to as many people as possible because they obviously want to expose it to as many people as possible because it contains their own affiliate links.
So to conclude, if you're struggling to build your list, then you should really look into creating free ebooks as you can quickly build up a large list very quickly if you offer good quality content for nothing.
