When you have a list in place, your prospects come to you as they've signed up to receive information about your products and services! Your clients are right there on your list - you don't have to go out and find them!
And to achieve this you need to create a List Building System, so that you can continually add people to your list, and have a ready pool of clients who want to buy your products and services.
There are many different strategies that go towards creating your successful list building system, and today I'd like to share with you three free, and often overlooked, list building strategies. And they're all really simple to implement too!
1. Leverage the power of Amazon. I bet you didn't realize you could use Amazon as a list building strategy! It's very easy to do. If you have an account there, simply click on Your Profile along the top, and update your profile. Include as much information as you can about you and your business, and include a link back to your website. Then set about:
* Writing book reviews. If you have favorite books that you've read and have found invaluable to you in your business, write a review about them. You can write the review without having purchased your book from Amazon. Simply find the listing for that book and write your review. The author will appreciate the positive comments, and your profile will be hyperlinked in the book review - giving readers the opportunity to find out more about you!
* Building a Listmania. A listmania is simply a collection of books/audio products that you have found useful and you've pulled them altogether in one place, so that anyone looking for books/products on a particular topic can view your listmania to see what you recommend. It saves them having to trawl through the website researching the information themselves!
2. Trade 'Thank You' page space. When someone signs up for your newsletter, what does your Thank You page say? I'll bet it says something like, 'Thank you for signing up to my newsletter' - not very inspiring! Instead, use this space to recommend colleague's newsletters. You could add, 'Here's a list of newsletter I find invaluable and I'd like to recommend them to you too'. And better still, ask those colleagues whose newsletter you're referring to do the same for you! This is known as co-registration (or trading 'Thank You' page space), and is a wonderful way to build your list quickly.
3. Use the power of Email Signatures. This is a very simple way to build your list. At the bottom of every email you send out make sure you include a link to your newsletter sign-up page and a snippet of what your free taste is about. The beauty of this strategy is that you never know who your email will get forwarded to, and who will read your email signature and sign up to your list.
Now that I've shared with you three simple list building strategies, pick one of them and implement it TODAY! Don't waste any more time in building your list.
Stuck are you...uhh? Then following strategies will allow you, for FREE, to successfully undertake this task. There are three essential sources that provide dissertation help for free:
1. Dissertation Advisor: ?What slow and painful death can I give to my hopeless dissertation advisor? Crucifixion is too good for this useless wretch'Is this your immediate thought that comes into your mind when your advisor doesn't reply your e-mails or doesn't get in contact with you or always rejects what you send.
For the last 5 years I've been hearing from quite a few students that dealing with the supervisor is a total nightmare. As a matter of fact my research shows that every 8 out of 10 students who have to submit their dissertations say that they are stuck because of their advisors. Although in situations your advisor may prove to be chaotic but it is not the only reason of your dissertation stoppages. Turn the cameras on yourself and ask these questions from yourself:
? Are you missing your deadlines? ? Are you calling off and postponing meetings numerous times? ? Are you insisting on quick answers when you don't provide them yourself? ? Do you always keep altering ideas, topic, or approach? ? Are you shying away from your advisor because of any of the above reasons?
If you answer is yes to any one of the above questions, then you may be a catalyst to the disorder of your relationship. Analyze what you can do to act more responsibly and consistently and more importantly to get the advisor help you.
2. A Friend Who Has Written a Dissertation Before: Another source of dissertation help can be your friend. If you know someone who has already written a dissertation, you are likely to get tremendous help from them. Your friend can not only help you with the research but can give you a guideline that you could follow to write your own dissertation. You can also get a copy of your friend's dissertation and use it as a reference.
3. Local & Online Libraries: Libraries, whether local or online, also serve as a source of dissertation help for you. You can easily find material related to the subject and theme of your dissertation. Being able to go through literally hundreds of references will help you collect relevant matter for your dissertation.
All universities preserve copies of dissertations, usually in their libraries, or in the individual department, or both. Don't forget to check the universities libraries to find a copy of your dissertation. You can also purchase it for nominal prices through university's website or through phone.
Dissertations were being done long before the internet came along. Depending too much on the internet and not enough on your own resources, like taking a walk to a local library, can actually hurt your academic paper big time. However, internet resources are now much more sophisticated and comprehensive. Here is a list of few online sources I've found useful during my dissertation writing process:
? www.scholar.google.com: Google Scholar offers a search of scholarly literature across many disciplines and sources, including theses, dissertations, books, abstracts and articles.
? www.books.google.com: Google has digitized many books from library collections, including hundreds of books related to Old English literature: editions, translations and much more. You just need to have a Gmail account to access full books.
? www.questia.com: The world's biggest online library. Although it is a paid resource but worthwhile browsing through. Also it is very cheap. A few bucks can get you a month's membership to browse through thousands of books, journals, articles, newspapers and magazines.
? www.ebscohost.com: Through this great resource you can access hundreds of libraries by sitting at your home through internet. Remote access of EBSCO's databases is only allowed to subscribing institutions for personal, non-commercial use. You should check with your institute to see if they have subscribed to this resource.
Final Thoughts: Knowing the appropriate resources available for dissertation help will most certainly allow you to stay focused. Maintaining human relationship is an art. You have to be smart as well as responsible when interacting with your advisor to get maximum help. Friends and peers are often ignored when you are trying to get your dissertation finished. Don't make the mistake of forgetting them.
When trying to get free dissertations online be careful about your topic and university guidelines. You may well download a dissertation thinking it as a great match to your topic but in reality it isn't. You can also search and buy dissertations from the university's website. Also see if there's an interlibrary loan system that could send you a copy.
