Hello and welcome to another great issue of the Accelerated Niche Profits newsletter. I’m writing this issue on a train from London to Devon. I’m off with Daisy for a couple of days break. She keeps looking over my shoulder and disrupting me so I expect this issue will take slightly longer than usual.

How To Get Your First 100 Subscribers The Easy Way
When subscribers email me with their questions, the most common seems to be…
“How can I build a targeted list of subscribers EASILY?”
Everyone wants their own list of subscribers. The freedom you have is incredible. If you need some extra cash, then you simply have to send a special offer at the click of a button and then watch the sales roll in.
It’s a fantastic feeling.
Many people struggle getting going though – so I’ve written this article detailing my personal experience to help you get going FAST.
For more help with list building, including how to get going and then growing your list at a constantly accelerating rate, then take a look at my best selling report Accelerated List Building.
Reaching the dizzy heights of 10,000, 20,000, even up to 50,000 subscribers or more seems like climbing Mount Everest. But when you break it down into chunks it seems a lot more manageable.
If you can get 100 subscribers, then all you need to do is replicate that 100 times and you have 10,000 subscribers.
I’m going to give you an inside peak into one of my small niche lists to show you how I generated over 100 subscribers with a $40 investment and two hours’ worth of effort. The list is actually now way above 100 and grows by about 5 or 6 per day.
So, how did I do it?
Step #1
The set-up
If you haven’t got a squeeze page set up yet collecting subscribers, then you need to do that first. I’m sure you’ve seen squeeze pages a million times before. Pick your favourites and model your own page on that.
The squeeze page I was driving traffic to in this experiment was http://www.firmupyourabs.com/1.html
That page took all of 20 minutes to create, yet it converts at around 35%. I haven’t even done any testing on this page. I could easily bump this conversion up to 50% with a few small tweaks.
Step #2
Find a writer, get some articles
We need some articles created now. You can write them yourself, but having them written for you is a much more time efficient method and you can get decent articles for very cheap.
Go to elance.com or scriptlance.com to find your article writer.
I paid $40 to have a writer create 10 articles for me. I also wrote 3 myself, giving me a total of 13 articles to use.
Step #3
Article submission
I then went to EzineArticles.com and submitted the 13 articles. 8 of them I submitted in March, the other 5 I submitted in April. (This was purely because I got bored and distracted).
Of course in the article resource box you want to link back to your squeeze page so the reader heads to your site and hopefully subscribes – after all that is the main goal.
Step #4
The results
Now is simply time to watch as traffic steadily and consistently rolls into your site. Your number of opt-ins rises and your profits grow exponentially as more people are added to your follow up sequence.
Here’s how my numbers panned out.

In total my articles were read 2,155 times resulting in 403 clicks to my squeeze page.
Given that my squeeze page conversion was 35%, that means my $40 and two hour investment was worth 141 subscribers.
Ask any list builder what they would rather have - $40 or 141 subscribers and everyone would say the latter.
Not only that but I’m also getting organic search engine traffic due to a boost in rankings due to the backlinks created by these articles.
Many say article marketing is dead… I say it’s still very much alive and I’m living proof.

My Super Simple Business Model That YOU Can Copy
Over the last few years I’ve developed and refined a simple, easily replicable system for building a solid, long term, ever growing business in ALMOST any niche – and today I want to share my system with you all as my pay back to the WF.
As I always like to do, I’ll be presenting the system in a step-by-step method for you to get going with it quickly. You won’t discover any “groundbreaking” secrets, but this outline may help you organise all the knowledge you do have into one simple system.
Step #1
Market Identification
I know this sounds boring. Finding a market seems to be the first step in almost every single online business model – but it’s incredibly important. Getting this step wrong will break you before you even get going.
Fortunately, with this business model, picking a profitable niche couldn’t be any simpler. We’re not going for tiny markets – we’re going for the mass markets; things like health, making money, saving money, relationships, self improvement, home improvement, gardening etc.
By targeting these mass markets we have a never ending supply of JV partners, affiliates and more importantly… CUSTOMERS.
Step #2
Product Creation
Once you’ve chosen your main market, you need to identify a killer product to create. Remember we want to target the masses. We don’t want to create a product about “herb gardening” – the market isn’t big enough for us. Instead, go for something like “how to grow the perfect garden”. That opens up thousands more potential buyers.
Creating a product is much easier than you probably think. The product we’re creating doesn’t need to be long. 20 pages would be sufficient. The information should be quality and succinct. No fluff, no filler, just solid content.
There are a number of ways you can get a product created quickly.
- Find an expert and interview them with 10 or so questions. This can be done by email, phone, video etc. Pay them a fee or just promise them plenty of exposure. Often they’ll be happy to do it.
- Find a writer who has an in depth knowledge of your topic area and pay them to create your product. They may charge extra for their expertise – but as it’s only a short product it won’t cost an arm and a leg.
- Get down your local library, rent five or six books on your chosen topic and compile the best information from the books into your report. (No plagiarism, please!)
- Get ’24 Hour Product Creation’ from Lee McIntyre to discover how you can have your own product created in under 24 hours. Click here to get it.
Give your report a professional design and incorporate a few affiliate links in relevant places for extra profit power.
Step #3
Sales Page Creation & Pricing
This again is much more simple than everyone seems to make out. You need a salespage to sell your product. If you’ve targeted a hungry market then doing this is much easier than expected.
I have no idea how to tap into the “unconscious psychological desires” of prospects (even though I’m studying Psychology at uni) – yet I’m still able to create salespages that convert at around 10%.
The key to doing that is to find out what your prospects’ major problem is, emphasise that problem, and then present the solution (your product). Simple.
I typically price my products at around the $10 mark. It’s high enough so affiliates like it, but still converts at decent rates.
Step #4
Setting Up Your Site For Success
Like we just established, we’ll be selling our product for around $10. But before we start doing this, we need to set up our site in a way that squeezes as much profit as possible.
I use the Rapid Action Profits (RAP) script to handle all of this. The first thing we need to do is set our commission level at 100%. (Easy to do with RAP) Affiliates love this and it means the payments can go directly to their Paypal account. If you’re serious about recruiting affiliates and JV partners then this is essential.
Have buyers automatically added into your list once they purchase. If you are integrating with someone like Aweber then they will need to confirm their email address so offer them a bonus for doing so. (Easy to do with RAP)
You’ll also need to develop a money generating follow-up sequence. Load about 20 or so emails into your follow up sequence. Most of the emails should provide quality content of interest to the subscriber with a subtle pitch to relevant offers, and some should be simple solo emails with the main intention to get people to buy the product you recommend.
If you can, then set up a OTO at a slightly higher price point. $17-$27 has worked best for me. This is a good way to squeeze some extra profit instantly. Pay affiliates 50% on the OTO to attract more affiliates. Again, this is easy to do with RAP.
On your download page provide the customer with their purchase, offer some unadvertised bonuses (to kick off the reciprocity principle) and present them with a higher value product related to the product they just purchased. This can simply be an affiliate product you want to promote. Typical price points that I go for are $97-$297. These can be affiliate products that you get a commission for.
Step #5
Getting JV Partners & Affiliates
JVs and affiliates will be the lifeblood of your business. They’ll be sending pretty much all of your traffic and sales. Recruiting them is much more simple than I used to think. The keys to getting people to promote for you is:
- Have conversion data with proof and make sure the conversions are GOOD.
- Provide a typical visitor value. So if Joe Affiliate sends 100 visitors let him know he will make $100 on average, for example.
- Be personal in your approach emails.
- Provide a treasure chest of tools affiliates can use, especially solo emails.
Finding affiliates is also much easier than you think. Here’s a few ways you can find affiliates.
- Go to each of the main search engines, type in keywords and phrases related to your product. Go to the top 30-40 sites in each search engine and contact them all with your personalised JV proposal. Remember – try to find a phone number and ring them.
- Again, go to each of the main search engines and type in “your key phrase blog”. So if your product is ’20 Great First Date Ideas’, then search for “dating blog”. Try different variations too, such as “date ideas blog”, “how to pick up men/women blog” etc. Contact the blog owners and ask them to post a review of your product with their affiliate link, or to put a link or banner ad on the layout of their blog.
- Once more, go to all the major search engines and type in “your key phrase newsletter”. So, “dating newsletter”, “how to pick up women newsletter” etc. Contact the newsletter owners and ask them to include a recommendation for your product in their next email, or go all out and ask for them to give you a solo email. Remember the rule of reciprocity. Also try bestezines.com and look for newsletters in the category of your niche.
- Go to EzineArticles and the category related to your product. Look through the most recent articles in the category and follow the resource boxes in each article. Go through to the website in at least 20 different articles to find a variety of websites. Lots of these websites will be building a list or will have ad space to advertise your product. Also, go to the “Most Viewed” and “Most Published” articles and click through those author resource boxes. Contact the site owners with your JV proposal. Many of the sites won’t have much traffic, but it’s still worth contacting them.
- Go to Squidoo now and find some of the top ranked lenses in the category related to your niche. If the lens fits the topic of your product and you believe the readers of the lens may be interested in your report, then contact the lens master with a quick JV proposal. Often, I can never find contact addresses on Squidoo lenses, so I leave a comment in the guestbook saying something like. “Hi, great lens. I’ve given it 5 stars. I’m just leaving a note to let you know about a new product I’ve created that you could make money promoting on your lens. If you’re interested then head on over to my affiliate page at mysite.com/affiliates for more details and my contact email address. Thanks, James Penn”.
- Next, go to the Clickbank marketplace and browse through the products in the category related to your product. Find complimentary, but not competing, products and contact the product owners with your JV proposal. It’s much easier to get these types of JV partners to accept if you offer an ad swap. You promote their product to your list with your affiliate link and they promote your product to their list with their affiliate link.
Step #6
Diversify
Once you have one of these sites set up and running and generating consistent sales, then move onto another one. You could stay in the same market but with a different product and you can cross-sell to your existing buyers, recruit the same JV partners and use your same knowledge of the market.
Once you’ve set one of these sites up it’s very easy to do another. And once you see how easy it is to do with your first one, you’ll be eager to get going with it again.
Even better, because we’ve targeted the mass markets we have a never ending stream of buyers and affiliates.
With a little hard work, you could soon have a list of thousands of BUYERS eager to send you even more money. Those list builders amongst us know the power of having a significant list of buyers.
I hope this has helped some of you.
