Have you ever pondered how you might make the members on your email list more responsive? Here's what I mean... I'm sure you've done this before, you send your subscribers one email after another full of useful content, then you make a recommendation to a product and almost no one orders through your link. Sound familiar?

It took me many years of trial and error to create this list of 5 tips to help you increase your member profits.

Pay close attention to what I'm about to reveal because it can and will quickly increase your listbuilding income.

Tip 1: Use double optin subscriptions

Getting people to confirm their subscription ensures you have people on

your list who definitely wish to hear more from you. This is one of the

most important steps to take because it helps you to build a quality email list. Remember listbuilding is about quality not quantity.

Tip 2: Use personalization

It's been proven time and time again that personalization significantly increases the effectiveness of your communication with your subscribers. By including your subscribers name in the emails you send them, you give the message a sense of its being sent just for their eyes and no-one else.

Tip 3: Train your subscribers

For every two emails you send out that are content oriented, send out one email that's an honest recommendation of yours for a product you believe will help them. Train your list to expect to get offers from you that will be of use to them.

Tip 4: Regularly query your members

Find out what your list wants, then provide it to them. Simple. You might ask them questions like what's their worst problem in their business or ask other demographic style questions. This helps you to build a profile of your members and gives you solid understanding of how you could assist them better and what offers they're more likely to snap up to.

Tip 5: Give your subscribers special deals

It doesn't matter if you own your own product or are an affiliate, make your

list an offer only they'll be getting. It could be for the next two days only you're offering a 20% discount on your product. Or you offer an added bonus but only after they order something through your affiliate link.

Tip 5.5: Keep in consistent contact with your subscribers

It's when you contact your list 2 times a month that they start to forget who you are. Stay in regular touch and people will begin to remember, trust and like you.

Above all don't forget this one golden rule of listbuilding... the money is in your connection with your list not its size.
