Having built several lists over the last year in different

niche markets - all highly responsive, some in the high

tens of thousands, its time to focus in on 3 of the most

productive list building techniques.

writing compelling articles consistently. Send them out to

if not 1000's of signups. Long term joint ventures can also be

repeated for months and months. Think in terms of joint mailings,

interviews, viral ebooks, articles, special reports, etc... to use as

tools to make joint ventures successful.
