Building a profitable opt-in list don't just happen overnight. There are many preparations and effort to do. One of this is Opt-in email marketing, also known as permission marketing.

Opt-in marketing requires the permission of a willing customer to subscribe to your marketing materials, materials that take form in newsletters, catalogs and promotional mailings via e-mail. The more opt-in marketing mail is sent, the more chances there is to bag sales and more sales. To do this, you must build a list of all those who wants to subscribe to your opt-in marketing list.

To build a good opt-in list you need people to trust you, for a faster and quicker build up, you need to get your opt-in subscribers to trust you quickly. The faster you build your opt-in list the faster word about your site and company gets to be spread. It is essential that you present your promotional items in a manner that will catch the interest and the eye of your subscribers to keep them wanting for more. The best way to do this is to provide fun, entertaining and informational articles.

The more subscribers you have, the more money you can get. Here are 15 ways to make money using nothing more than your list.

1. Get your customers to trust you and your products first. Just launching your opt-in list would not make you an expert and a believable seller. Make your site useful and very easy to use.

2. Invest in having good programming in your site, make your graphics beautiful but don't over do it.

3. Provide good service and products. A return customer is more likely to bring in more business. Even then and now, a satisfied customer will recommend a business always. Word of mouth and recommendations alone can rake in more business than an expensive ad.

8. Make deals with other companies by asking for a small percentage of sales done through your list.

9. You may also get products from other sites on a consignment basis and sell them to your list via your newsletter. There will be those who will buy from you and when that happens, you can order the product from the other site and sell it to your buyer.

10. Your promotional materials should be clear. Don't leave people guessing. You should lead them to you and not vice versa. Explain to them what they need to do in a manner that won't be confusing. Try to anticipate also what your target client needs. Sell e-books or a compilation of your articles on your list. Manuals and how-to articles are in great demand.

11. Create a network out of your list. Get people to invite more people to view your site and subscribe to your list. The larger your list is, the more people will be able to click on your links and affiliate links as well as make your advertisement rates higher.

12. Make friends with other opt-in list users. This is basically beneficial especially if it is someone who has already launched a successful opt-in list. Experienced opt-in list users will be able to tell you what to do and what not to do because they have gone through it. There are many things to avoid and these people will be able to tell you which ones.

13. Subscribers are willing to pay for information if they know that it can be trusted and relied upon. Use your list to get more and more people to subscribe to you as well as browse your site.
