I build blogs.

I send scheduled updates to my list members which help them with problems they need solved in their lives.

Included in the updates are UPSELLS to digital products or AFFILIATE PROGRAMS. I even make money from people buying SOLO ADS to be sent to my list (I don't try to take too many of these orders though-don't want to wear out my list with too many ads). I mostly use upsell ads instead of running solo ads. Upsell ads = part of your list content.

I use social media to promote my blogs as well as pushing my list members to get their friends and family members to join the list.


Sorry, I can't be more specific and can't spell out my NICHES since I need more competition as much as I need a bullet through my brain... But I've given you enough details above for you to understand hour mainstream OPTIN list building and marketing works.

The money is in the list. Serious talk.
