I think we are talking about the same thing. Adding value is providing free stuff. Every non-offer email is free stuff.

It depends what you are giving for free. A mini-course, for example, is a great way to introduce basic paid for tools like Clickfunnals, autoresponders, etc with your affiliate link, etc.

If you are buying solo ads you probably are already giving something (e.g. report, video, mini-course, e-book, free membership, etc) away to get people to opt-in (i.e. a lead magnet). However what people tend to forget is to keep doing this once the person is on there list!

If you want high open rates, click through rates and sales from your list you need to give, give, give.

Keep sending your list free things which are not designed to sell whether that be reports, videos, e-books or giveaways.

Your list should be excited to get an email from you! If you can give more than you ask from your list, your list will be gold dust to you!

Absolutely! Building a relationship with your opt-ins with a follow up sequence which provides real value to them is where the money is made.

Very true. The other alternative is to use Done For You Programs that allow you to plug in your own autoresponder.

Getresponse is quite good when starting out. It is cheap for a small list and quite easy to use.

Which ever service you use make sure to add your autoresponders spf record to your domain in your hosting account. This will improve deliverability. I have found many people forget to do this.

Check your autoresponders and hosting help sections if you need info on doing this.

What you need is:

- A landing or squeeze page offering something for free (ebook/membership site/video series etc) this is called a lead magnet

- Then once someone signs up they should be directed to your offer.

- They should then get an email about your offer via your autoresponder immediately and also the link to the lead magnet.

- The next follow up emails should not be sales emails but rather provide value ie. useful information and content for your subscribers.

- Only after sending value emails should you send your offer again.

- Continue this way with mostly value emails mixed with a few sales emails.

Good luck in your journey!
