Take a guess…
What’s the #1 question people have about building an email list?
Answer = How long does it take?
How long does it take to build a list?
How long does it take to make a product?
How long does it take to make MONEY?
..
Solid question.
Most people look at building a list as a looooong-term play. Something that takes years to cobble together and even more time to make money from.
That’s silly.
I was on live chat the other day with someone looking at buying my new course, Get 10,000 Subscribers. And we were having this exact convo.
I told them…
There is NO reason you can’t start a list today and have 100 subscribers in a week.
Guess what he said?
“Prove it.”
Sooo…..
I’m putting my money where my mouth is.
Over the next 48 hours I am going to start an email list from scratch and launch a product to that list.
Am I nervous? Yep!
But if my course is good at all, it should work. I should be able to get 100 email subscribers, come up with a product and get someone on that list to buy it.
And if I can, you can too.
So, here is the deal.
Tuesday I asked for ideas on what topic I should pick.
I threw out a few suggestions:
The winner (by a slim margin) was #1, Hammocking in Nashville.
This should be interesting.
=)
Only Rule is I can’t use my existing list or traffic to help it along (has to be completely from scratch).
If you want to follow along I’ll be posting updates on Twitter throughout the day.
Also, in the Get 10,000 Subscribers Facebook Community, I’m sharing tons of details on this experiment. And even getting feedback and suggestions from the students.
What do you think?
Think I’ll be able to do it?
I’ll be back Friday night to post the results.
