Build Your List With JV Giveaway Events

By Chris Simpson

One of the first things you always hear when starting out with Internet Marketing is that the money is in the list. It is very important that you start building up your own email contact list but just how do you start?

One great way that you can get started with building your list is to be a contributor in a JV giveaway event. In a JV giveaway event Internet Marketers are invited to submit a free gift such as an ebook, software program or access to a membership site.

You might not think that you have anything to give away as gift but check if any of the ebooks you have cluttering up your hard drive have giveaway rights. If so you could use one of those. If not then search Google for Private Label Rights products and you should soon have something that you can give away.

Once you have a product to give away you will need to set up a squeeze page to capture the names and email addresses of your visitors in exchange for your free gift. You will need to have you own web hosting account to host the squeeze page and an autoresponder to email out the link to your product once a visitor has entered their details.

Once you have your squeeze page up and running and delivering your gift you can then add your gift to a JV giveaway event. The giveaway will usually be open to the public for a limited number of days and people visiting the giveaway site can look through all of the gifts that have been contributed and download the ones that interest them. If anybody wants to download the gift that you have contributed they will be taken to your squeeze page and fill out the form which means you have just got another subscriber on your list.

One feature that many JV giveaway sites have is the opportunity to upgrade your account so that your gift is listed in a more prominent position. This is certainly worthwhile thinking about as increasing the exposure of your gift will lead to more people seeing it on the giveaway site and joining your list as a result.

JV giveaway events take place regularly so it is important that you keep looking for new events to participate in. Contributing to several different giveaways means that you are promoting your squeeze page in several different places and will definitely gain your more list subscribers.

Participating in JV giveaways are one of the easiest things you can do to build your list so why not find a giveaway event that will be starting soon and contribute a gift?
