I'm sure you want to have a business that lasts for the long haul. There's a lot involved in running a business, but you want to run it to make money day in and day out maximizing your profits while minimizing your work load. One way you can to this for the success of your business is by building an opt in email list. You can talk to just about anyone who is doing well online and they will tell you that building an opt in email list and monetizing it effectively often becomes their bread and butter.

So you've decided that's what you are going to do to, so you do your home work and learn every technique about building an opt in email list that you can think of doing. After all the effort, you still find yourself scratching your head, because maybe you built a list, but you're not making any money from that list.

Frustrated, you might even be losing money because of the expenses to build the list, maintain it and any other cost associated with building an opt in email list.

You think over and over... 'they say the money is in the list', but it might only be for the chosen few who are building an opt in email list. They must knows something you don't because of your total failure to even profit from your list. So you just say forget it and go on to the next big thing that's supposed to be making people a bundle of cash on the Internet

Please.....don't give up on it cause there's hope. It might seem to you like an impossibility, but having and building a targeted email list is a crucial part of your business success. Just roll up your sleeves and really learn how to do it and do it right. If you're persistent, you will be able to do it and you'll be really glad you did.

So what are the challenges holding you back from building an opt in email list? I'm sure you're already aware that there are many factors that are involved in successfully building an opt in email list and then monetizing it correctly. Other's have written whole courses and books on the details of this subject, but for the purposes of this article, I'm going to explain how you should be thinking even before you use any list building techniques. If you don't have these certain approaches, when building an opt in email list, all the techniques in the world won't help you.

What I'm starting to talk about is really the foundation for building an opt in email list. We can call it a mindset or the attitude you have when actively building and monetizing your list. There are 3 foundational mindsets that you need to have to really make a go at building targeted email list.

1-It really quality-not quantity.

It might take more effort and thought to methodically attract and add quality subscribers to your list, but it is worth every ounce of sweat to building an opt in email list that's responsive. Have the mindset of only attracting quality. You may have a smaller list, but even a small highly responsive list will outperform a much larger low quality list any day of the week.

But of course building quality requires more effort and expertise than just building an opt in email list with anyone on that list. I'm not going to go into detail of the how's of building as much as sticking with the foundation or mindset for having a targeted email list.

2-Another mindset is having the approach that you have only ONE person on your list. When building an opt in email list many marketers talk to their list broadcasting to them like a news anchor giving the evening news on TV. Please....Don't do it!

Communicate like you are talking to each person on your list individually. You must connect with your subscriber and make them feel like you are just talking to them when you send out emails to your list. Let's face it; they really don't want to be on anyone's list just to be on a list. They've joined your list because they feel you can help them out. They need you to help solve their challenges. Building an opt in email list means giving everyone on your list the feeling you are there just for them like you are right there talking to them.

If you do this when building an opt in email list, you'll be will light years ahead of most businesses.

3-Develop the perfect system to attract the most targeted prospect and then use that system a million times over. Build your squeeze pages, landing pages, marketing and advertising around this thought to build the optimal list.

I'm sure you know McDonalds. Who hasn't... I've probably eaten there 100's of times in my lifetime. Well Ray Crock the founder of McDonalds developed a restaurant that was efficient, great quality and a real money maker. He kept tweaking it and developed a system that anyone could reproduce, if they followed his plan. He franchised it and now you have McDonalds all over the world having the same great success, because the system was a winner before rolling it out on a mass scale.

So just putting together an opt in form and some crappy report to pull prospects from anywhere you can get them, might not be the best idea for the long run. Take the time to learn, create and implement a system that attracts hight quality prospects. Then when building an opt in email list you can do it over and over producing a quality list.

Some final words to wrap thing up. Building an opt in email list is done one person at a time. Don't try to talk to everyone, but focus on being personable and talking to one person at a time. Actually imagine they are sitting right next to you and you are talking to them. That's the feel they should have when you are communicating with them. Don't try to fake it. Be yourself and don't try to act like you're a big company. Even if you are a big company, don't act like it. You will have more response when you are personable and treat your subscriber or customer like you care.
