The chances are good that there are tradeshows related to your niche in your area. If you go to these you can find people who would be interested in joining your list. People are more likely to trust a face-to-face interaction than an online one. These contacts can turn into lifetime customers for you.
In fact, this tip works well whether you have physical products or you focus your energies strictly online.
PRO TIP: Rather than visit tradeshows, why not put one on? Or at the very least be a featured speaker or facilitator.
Great tip! I’m always looking for opportunities to present. A tradeshow would be a good place to do it.
Great tip for list building. Many times we do not think beyond what we are used to and what we know.
That’s a great tip for anyone who lives in or near an area where there are lots of people. It’s a bit of a challenge for me to find others in my niche (writing), but it’s so nice when I do meet someone! For now I’m grateful for the internet.
