If I could get a dollar for every time someone said "money is on the list" I'd already be a millionaire.
As cliché as it sounds, it's true.
Why do some of the most successful affiliate marketers recommend starting your own email list? The audience, in a word. Your list is made up of really great people who give you their email addresses in return because they believe in you. If you have something of value, you can contact these people.
Consider it this way. Assume you run a blog and promote an affiliate programme that pays you 50% of the $99 sale price as a commission. You wrote an excellent review that has been read by thousands of people. Before leaving, 40% of visitors go to a sales page. One percent of the population converts. So four sales totaled $198. awesome! Is amazing!
But what if you have a mailing list and 10% of your subscribers sign up? If the conversion rate for this campaign is only 5%, that equates to approximately 40 subscribers. Consider this: the people you sent to your sales page are no longer there, whereas the people who signed up for your list may become ardent supporters who make multiple purchases in their lifetime. This is the power of mailing lists: a few thousand (or even 100) subscribers can account for up to 80% of your revenue!
Before we get into the specifics of building an email list, we must first establish the proper mindset. Because so many people get into affiliate marketing to make a "quick buck," it has a bad reputation. When you hear the phrase "Quick Buck," you immediately think of cards or scams. It appears in emails, signup forms, blog posts, sales pages, and nearly every other page you create. So let's get this out of the way!
Alternatively, consider the most profitable or valuable service you can provide to your target market.
Email Marketing Secrets
1. Conduct horizontal keyword and suggested search searches.
We're used to doing SEO keyword research as affiliate marketers. Typically, affiliate marketers seek keywords with a high search volume and potential for ranking.
This time, however, read the keyword suggestions vertically (as shown in the image). Step 2 will provide you with some important warnings.
For example, this person told me that some of the main things people look for are examples of affiliate sites, what the average income is, what companies you can work with, what software to use, and so on.
2. Hear ’em talk at Forums/Quora/Reddit:
All of these sources, or a combination of them, are usually sufficient to get you started. Because they all interact with your target customers in real time, if you listen to them, you'll know your audience better than most of your competition.
Tip: Ask without Selling
Discussions on specific topics are encouraged. People will flock to your questions if you approach them with a service mentality rather than a sales mentality. The language they use on your signup pages, sales pages, and even emails will aid in the development of a strong connection.
Now that you've got the right idea, let's get into the specifics of making a list:

Sign up with an Auto-Responder
To collect information, you can use an autoresponder service to add a simple form or popup to your website. Lists under your control are made up of words and emails that you have collected and saved.
Create a Lead Magnet
A lead magnet is something you give prospects in exchange for their email address. Most affiliate marketers make the mistake of using outdated reports, or worse, rewritten reports that they paid to resell instead of putting in the time and effort. to sever
The higher your opt-in rate, the more relevant your lead magnet; in fact, you can test your lead magnet change on the post your visitor is currently viewing! You must actively explore what works best for you in addition to creating something of value.
Obtain the Opt-In.
Make sure you have the following options:
headline that grabs attention.
Subhead with many advantages.

A privacy statement informing people that you won't spam them or sell their information.
Over-deliver on your promise
The goal is not to collect email addresses. Instead, take advantage of this opportunity to surprise your subscribers. In addition to keeping your word, you should investigate and gradually satisfy your audience's other needs.
Write Compelling E-Mails
Don't be the one with the bad news, as Travis Sago likes to say. People already have enough stress in their lives (irony, right?), so your job as an email marketer is to build relationships, not get customers to buy. Storytelling is one way to achieve this. People love stories because they find them entertaining and we can't get enough of them. So be sure to make relevant posts from time to time. Our goal is to be what your customers look forward to in their email!
You can send great links, items you found online, deals they like, and anything your friends send you as long as they do what's best for them.
