Why Build a List?
Unlike grocery lists or spare parts lists, in the
marketing sense of the term, a 'list' refers to a
list of customers. More specifically, in regards to
internet marketing, it refers to a list of emails
through which potential customers can be contacted.
If you've ever faced a situation where you needed to
enter your details (especially your email) before you
download something, then chances are that you are, or
have been, part of a someone else's list.
Even large companies that are already very established
use email lists of their own to keep track of their
customers, and alert them to new developments, offers,
and so forth. Of course, this ties in to yet another
question at hand...
Why Build and Use a List?
Commonly, not having a list is said to be 'leaving
money on the table', and that much is certainly true.
Take the example of a conventional clothes store.
Customers come, browse around, maybe buy something,
and then leave. Once they've left, the store has no
way of getting in touch with them, and maybe
convincing them to come back again.
On the other hand, if the store had their contact
details, they could notify them when they have a new
stock of clothes on the rack, or special discounts,
and so on. By doing so, the customer would then feel
compelled to perhaps come back, or at very least would
consider doing so.
Similarly, in whatever niche that you're into, if you
had a list of previous customers then whenever you
have a new product, or some other offer, you'd just
be able to shoot out emails and see if anyone is
interested. Simple as it sounds, this is amazingly
effective.
Think about it in terms of figures, if that helps.
Let's say you have an 8,000 strong list, and you
send out an email regarding your latest product that
costs $20. Even if only 10% of your list buys your
product, that is 800 instant customers and you would
have made $16,000.
To sum it up, the reason to build and use a list is to
establish a firm base of regular customers to which
you can market your products and offers too with great
ease.

List Building - What's the Most Important Line?
For effective list building, it is vitally important to understand the most powerful line in your email.
You're probably thinking that the P.S. is the most important line in your email. Or maybe you think it's the subject line, after all isn't that what your subscriber sees first?
Well those are not bad guesses, after all a good subject line can increase your open rate and generate more sales, but it's not that. If you were thinking along the lines of the P.S. or post script, that's probably the most read line in your email, but that's not it either. Are your ready for the answer?
It's actually the one line that determines whether you even read the subject line and subsequently open the email at all. It's the FROM line.
Let's face it, if that email is not from someone you want to hear from, you ain't going to open it, regardless of what the subject line says. True?
When you consider the amount of email that individuals receive today on a daily basis, it's very easy to get lost in the shuffle or ignored completely.
By putting your name in the 'From' line you are branding yourself and this is also part of the relationship building process with your subscribers. As you continue to provide useful and relevant content on a consistent basis, your messages are more likely to be read because once they see your name in the 'From' line, they will immediately associate your name with value.
