Automation technologies represent a fundamental aspect of any modern industry. The major types of industrial automation solutions, such as DCS, PLC, SCADA, and MES, are used on a large-scale in process and discrete industries.DCS technologie Awhile ago, I got an email from one of the "gurus" I follow and it shocked me. The gist of it was this person wanted to trade services for a household item.To say it floored me would be an understatement.What was worse was a few days later t
That's a very bold title, and even more impressive because I DOget all of the subscribers I want on a continuous basis. Howcan this be true and how do I do it?First of all, I do have limits on the number of subscribers thatI want. How many subscribers I desire on a list depends upon thepurpose of that list. I hope that you build your lists the sameway. Many online entrepreneurs just build lists as large aspossible without any real concern for how qualified the listmembers are. They reason that if they get enough email addressesand names someone will eventually buy SOMETHING. What you shouldreally be shooting for is lists of pre-qualified members... thosereally interested in the purpose of your list.If you build pre-qualified lists you don't need lists as largebecause the lists will be so responsive. It won't seem like yourmailings are "shots in the dark." You won't have the problemsthat plagues so many lists such as:- People signing up with throw-away email address which they soonabandon. People will want to make sure they don't miss an issuebecause they are genuinely interested in your list topic.- People who sign up for ten times as many ezines as they canpossibly read. These subscribers don't know what they are lookingfor and therefore aren't your ideal subscribers. You want toattract mostly subscribers who know and want exactly what youhave to offer.But how do I get all of these highly targeted subscribers? Itis through a number of throughly tested systems which I put inplace and let them take on a life of their own. I'll share afew with you.The first system that I put in place is that I have a subscribebox on virtually every page of my websites. However, I don't want just anybody subscribing. Therefore, the teaser near my subscribe boxes tells what type of subscriber I am looking for. Far too many people have subscriber forms that just say "join our list." To further ensure that my subscribers know EXACTLY what they are signing up for, I have sample copies of my ezinesposted on my sites for them to preview. Also, as soon as theysignup, the welcome message has the latest issue included. This reassures the subscriber of exactly what he will be getting and shows him what to anticipate with each weekly issue. If the ezine isn't what the subscriber expected, he only needs to clickon the unsubscribe link to remove himself.Many people have a signup box on their site, but not many makesure they are getting targeted subscribers. This just leads to a lot of bounced emails and angry people who forget that they subscribed. Highly targeted subscribers grow your list fasterbecause they stay longer. A more responsive list doesn't need to be as large to provide you with all of the business you can manage!A second system I have implemented on my site is a customizedlist building tutorial. Site visitors take a survey and are provided with a tutorial based upon their answers to a few questions. The page featuring the survey also tells them that they will be added to my subscriber list where they will get more priceless information. This works like magic. I just need a few links on strategic pages pointing to the survey and I geta steady trickle of new subscribers automatically. If I were not getting enough subscribers through this system, I wouldprobably add a popunder box pointing to them survey.A third system that I use to get new, highly targeted traffic isthat I actually BUY them for some purposes. For example, I havea course I offer from my site. I get new subscribers through aservice called Lead Factory. Lead Factory sends me newsubscribers through popup boxes on high traffic sites. The subscribers are highly targeted because my invitation to get the coures is very specific. They know exactly what they are getting and so I get the exact subscribers I want. The beauty of this system is that I can control exactly how many people are taking the course at any one time. Why would I want to limit the number of subscribers? Because many of the subscribers email me with questions and feedback as they take the course. If I had too many subscribers to the course it would become impossible to keep up with the email. I want to keep up with the email because by communicating with my course subscribers I turn many of them into loyal customers.The subscribers to the course are also invited to become ezinesubscribers and over 90% of those completing the course dosubscribe. So this system continuously feeds highly targeted and loyal subscribers to my ezine.A fourth system that I use is that I write ezine articleregularly which I submit to ezines, article directories and article lists. All of these articles have resource boxes which bring the reader into my site on the exact landing page I desire. Which page they are brought into the site on depends upon the article's topic. This is key to getting that highly targeted traffic. My articles are published on many other websites, so each article becomes a mini-system which continues to bring innew site visitors and subscribers for YEARS. The same is true ofmy article and interviews published in ebooks.These are just a few of the many systems that I have in placewhich bring me thousands of new contacts regularly. Each systemis implemented in such a way that once put in place I need takeno further action. Many of these systems were conceived afterI read Paul Myers' incredible book, The Amazing List Machine.Using techniques from this book and those I brainstormed afterreading this book several times, I honestly have all of thesubscribers I want. If I increase the subscribers, contacts,and leads much more I would be forced to hired additionalemployees. That wouldn't be such a bad thing except that atsome point I would exceed the span-of-control that I feelcomfortable with. It would force my business to turn intothe type of enterprise I don't want since I built an onlinebusiness to afford me more leisure time :-)If you have not already read Paul's book, I consider it essentialreading.

I most recently added just over11,000 new subscribers using this service. They were highlytargeted subscribers and I know I will recover 30 times myexpense. It is very important that you know the lifetimevalue of your list members before you use a service like thisthough. A simple way to approximate this is to divide how muchmoney you think you earned through your list over say 2 yearsby the number of list members you have. This approximates howmuch each member is "worth." This is very simplistic but givesyou an idea of the most you should be willing to spend to attractnew list members.Check out the highly recommended Lead Factory at:http://williecrawford.com/cgi-bin k.cgi?leadfactoryIf you struggle to get new subscribers, I have just shown youhow to get all of the new subscribers you can use. The keyis that they need to be highly targeted. Set up a number ofsystems similar to mine and you will find that your listbuilding challenges are solved!If you'd like to see my survey system in action, go to:http://williecrawford.com/build-list.html Article Tags: Highly Targeted, Targeted Subscribers, Lead Factory
