Hi Jack,

Re. building your mailing list, I can share a method with you though it's quite basic (because if I write it all here, it may as well be a book!)

Looks like you have an eBook ready and another one in the making, so you'll want to prioritize your Internet Business Model this way:

1. Make your Index page a Landing Page to collect leads. Tip: You say you have another book in the making, right? Why not use it as a special report to offer to your visitors for free in exchange for subscribing to your list? It'll give them a further incentive.

2. When they subscribe, they'll go to your Thank You page to download the report. Cash makers are here now: you pre-sell your main book in the Thank You page. Secondly, you have links mostly pointing back to the sales letter of that book. Thirdly, you may want to gently remind your subscribers about it via follow up emails. :P

I've done quite well focusing on these 3 gentle reminders that I was able to sell a $97.00 Resell Rights products up until now since the day I started online. 8)

Of course, the success factors include:
- how well your sales letter is written
- how well your special report and main ebook is linked and related together


With the system taken care of, your main methods of building your list (effectively) include:
- joining Give Aways (better if you're in the Internet Marketing circle)
- PPC (I personally dont do this, but have had friends do well with this)
- eZine advertising (I do this one, but repeat advertising and compelling ads count)
- ad swaps (my favorite!)

This is just a general outline but I hope this helps.
