How to create a list with LinkedIn




The number of professionals using LinkedIn is growing by the minute. This portal is ideal for any business owner who wants to establish new relationships, promote their business and, most importantly, meet new contacts. It is definitely a great addition to the marketing strategies you are currently using as it has over 25 million users worldwide.

Like other social media portals and sites, joining LinkedIn is relatively easy, but for it to work in your favor, you need to spend enough time, try harder, and apply strategies that are being used by successful people.

In this article, I want to help you use this portal to build and improve your email marketing list. This is what to do:

1. The first step is to create an attention-grabbing profile. Before you even think about connecting with other people, focus on creating an engaging profile first that helps you attract the right audience. Although you can copy and paste your old resume, I would recommend that you take the time and get creative for amazing results. It is important that your profile page reflects your ambitions, passions, and career interests. It should include information that your potential customers can relate to. Start by introducing yourself. On LinkedIn, you will be prompted for a short title under your name. This is something that should help you tell people who you really are. It’s only 4-5 words so get creative. If you are considered an authority on Internet marketing, for example, a simple “Internet Marketing Expert” would do it.

The next step is to point out the great things you have done. If you were able to help hundreds and thousands of people make money online, for example, be sure to mention that. Mention all the things that your prospects would find interesting and help you convince them to sign up for your email marketing list.

2. The next step is to connect with your potential customers. Immediately after creating your profile, you can go ahead and search for those people who might be interested in the products and services you sell. These are the ones you want to target to make sure your list is of high quality. Remember, every time you connect with one person, you will be able to access that person’s network and have the opportunity to invite more people. This can definitely help you grow your list in no time.

3. Be active. Once you are logged in, you will be given access to open questions asked by people in your extended network. Take the time to provide the correct answers. Your goal here is to make sure people pay attention and establish your expertise in your niche. If you can convince them that you are an authority in your field, they will most likely sign up for your list in no time, especially if you promise that by doing so, you will send them free newsletters every week.
