Can I grow a mailing list for you?

A short term OPEN INVITATION.

I want to grow a mailing list for you – and you won’t spend a penny doing it and you won’t have to ever write anything if you don’t want to!

If you have an eBay account (even if you don’t use it much) and you DON’T have your “about me” page set up to capture leads then you are throwing money away. Give me five minutes and I’ll GIVE you a solution.

Literally…that’s it. Five minutes.

I know that sounds crazy, but make sure you get this…it could take you longer to read this than to set this whole thing up.

If you haven’t yet read the ALL-TIME BEST SELLING eBook about creative ways to succeed on eBay and the Internet then this message will make more sense AFTER you read the section about building a mailing list using eBay….

Get the book here if you haven’t yet:
SilentSalesMachine.com

To fully grasp how cool this giveaway is you need to understand the “money-is-in-the-list” concept. It’s true and I explain that fact frequently as do many others.

I earn five figures monthly with minutes of work because of my lists.

In fact, after people read my “Silent Sales Machine” book there is one question I’ve been getting for years that typically goes something list this:

“Jim, I loved the whole ‘money-is-in-the-list’ part of your book, but EXACTLY what can I put on my eBay ‘about me’ page to grow my own mailing list? (I’m not a programmer.) What do I send those people once they join my mailing list? (I’m not a writer.) I don’t want to manage a mailing list and write all those messages and newsletters etc.”

Problem now solved.

For everyone that graps the “Money’s in the list” concept I’m proud to introduce:

AutoPilotListBuilder.com
(Don’t buy it – I’m going to give this to you JUST FOR READING MY BLOG – but everyone else will gladly pay $97.)

Some background:

One of the most successful long term strategies of creative eBay sellers has been to gain exposure through the use of the “about me” page that is an available feature of every eBay account.

It’s the foundation of my 100,000 member mailing list!

And, despite all the recent changes at eBay the latest eBay policy remains very friendly to the use of “opt-in” boxes on the “about me” page.

The step-by-step wizard I’ve set up at autopilotlistbuilder.com does all the work and even puts YOUR AFFILIATE LINKS in each message that goes out.

How can you try it out?

    Thank you, Jim, for helping me set up my About ME page on eBay so painlessly easy. This is a major improvement over the link I had before. It looks so nice and professional.

  • http://www.WatchCountWidget.com/ Jake Bartolo

    I think this is a very creative idea, and a great solution to that nagging committment of satisfying ongoing communication to a mailing list that many of us feel potentially burdened by. If I didn't already have good stuff on my About Me pages, I'd definitely dive in to APLB.

    Oh, something which may not be obvious to everyone (I was wondering myself until I starting investigating further) – are you wondering what exactly Jim will be emailing to people you sign up to your list? The answer (from what I now understand): The same idea-packed CES newsletter that 100K+ people already receive regularly. So, you have an idea of the kind of topics (and promotions) that come across in those mailings.

    Hi Jim

    I just started my list last week and have about 500 on it now. The list was created from this years sales on ebay. I'm going to try your autopilotlist builder and see what happens.

    Thanks-bob -http://UsaVhs.com

    Well Jim you have done it again.

    Summer time has caught me sitting on my backside as far as online business goes. Since the first of the year I have worked on a couple of things that have helped nobody and made me no money from online busines. I then got busy on some home repair issues and got away from online for a break. Now you come along with this and I got a jolt of interest again and have signed up. Thanks for your help and always encouragement.

    I'm a little confused about how I get access to my list with this autopilotlistbuilder. I have filled everything out and I like my squeeze page you created for us but excuse my ignorance, I don't see how to capture my list for other things might be selling. I love the autoresponder but does this squeeze page give me access as well as you? Again, Im sorry if I sound stupid but I am trying to tie it all in together and sometimes it gets the best of me.

    [[reply from Jim]]: When you first start using auto pilot list builder you are given two options. The first option leaves full control of your list with us and you just get paid all commissions generated. This is for people that don't want to mess with maintaining or mailing a list of their own. The second option leaves full control with you and steps you through setting up an aweber.com account. You access your subscribers anytime you'd like.

    Truly I am SO very new to this! Barely started ebay and have a website that doesn't sell anything. AS YET anyway! :)

    I have A LOT to learn but following the list builder instructions were relatively easy.

    Its a start anyway! Am busy reading your SilentSalesMachine book too!

    So am ever hopeful!

    Thanks guys for putting this together for us!

    Your original SSM was what got me hooked on the idea of starting an internet business. I confess I've had problems with setting up a listbuilding AboutME page, so I can't wait to give this new software a try!

    Thank you SO much for providing this software and for the chance to obtain it free.

    I am been looking for a way build my list for a while with no suceess.

    Hi JIm,

    Great tool and already implemented. Can you add a section to the script that inserts your current auctions and maybe an "Add to Favourite Sellers" button?

  • http://eveannantiques.com Jake Howard

    Thanks Jim,

    You are making this Internet Business thing seem almost simple for this Newbie. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience through your book, newsletter, and now, this method to build a customer list. You are much appreciated.

    Hi Jim

    What a brilliant way to put your 'ME' page to work!

    Thanks!

    Hi Jim,

    Do I understand correctly that if we go with the first option where you send out ads to my list, that I don't actually know who is on my list or how many people are on it. In other words, you are building your list even bigger, while all I get are some commissions as an affiliate from your book ads. How do I build and access my list this way? I can't afford to join aweber and pay their monthly fees.

    Pat

    [[reply from Jim]]: If you elect to have us host your subscribers (option 1) then we will send them messages on your behalf and you get commissions on any items sold to them. If you want to take option 2 and post your subscriber form anywhere online you'll get access to your subscribers via your own aweber account. The trade off with using option 1 is that we retain full control of your subscribers, but we pay you for items sold to them. When we promote products that aren't ours we get zero commission because it is split between you and the owner of the product. If you are actively trying to grow your own list and send them messages the best option is #2. I hope you can afford it soon.

    Hope that helps…

    The web site I listed is strictly on Clickbank. So I can't use it but I don't get how this works when you say that people don't even need a site. Hal Wright

    PS: I signed up yesterday but realized I didn't confirm that I read and accepted the agreement at the end of the pitch. I'm going to do it again, will that be a problem?

  • Ken Mason

    Jim, this is an awesome tool. I've been a ebayer for several years and never got around to doing a thing with the "About Me" page. This tool is a great way to start building a list and it is F.REE! Thanks for all the things you do for your Silent Team Members, you're The Man!

    …we’ve decided to leave our Links Policy as it was before my May announcement. There will be no Links Policy updates at this time.

    Of all the things eBay has done this year in trying to fix their ship, I wonder why they decided to keep the biggest "hole" in the boat. Hurray!!!!

  • carol

    oops…hit wrong key…this is the second part of the email…I had my "MY PAGE" set up before EBay chaanged their policy; but did not have this tool in place to track anyone that clicked on any of the links. SO…I never captured any data. SO…frustrating!! thanks…

    Great tool! Utilising the "About Me" page on eBay is deadly important, particularly when trying to build a list.

    It was simply invaluable to me when building a list, I currently use similar tactics on my Internet Marketing Blog to keep that list growing.

    Thanks

    In your blog you mentioned not to buy the autopilot listbuilder program, if we read your blog. Does that offer still stand and if so what are the procedures for obtaining the program.
