Targeted Audience

When you build a list you are attracting people who have a specific interest to sign up on your opt-in page to receive further information relative to this interest. Once they have signed up they are agreeing for you to make contact by email with them. You now have a list of email addresses of people who have a particular interest that you can send promotional messages.

As long as your messages remain relevant to the list subscribers' interest the messages will be appreciated and more effective. Most importantly this will make your sales conversion rates much higher when you do promote anything.

Time Efficiencies

Write your email send it and go tend to other areas of your business. Time and effort is not spent on generating or attracting new traffic but instead is focused on increasing your marketing effectiveness with your list. It is therefore time well spent and a more efficient use of your marketing efforts. Once again due to the fact that you know what is of interest to list members it makes it much easier to promote to them and this will increase your sales conversion rate.

Cost Efficient

Besides the minimal cost of an auto-responder service (you do have one, right?) there is no cost involved. Your only investment is the effort and time you may invest into putting together the messages you send out.

An email based marketing campaign is one of the most efficient and effective ways to rapidly grow an online business. Having the ability to make direct contact by email with a list that will accept your promotional messages can save you time and money while also increasing your profits. Although it does takes some effort to build a list the advantages you can gain as we discussed here today definitely make your efforts more than worth it. In time you will come to realize that this list of email addresses you have collected is the biggest business asset you have!
