As list-building is so vital for all of us, I’ve decided to focus this week’s newsletter on it by giving you some additional methods and training to those I teach in my new course, Lucrative Lists.

First up, we’re going to look at ways to build your lists through Facebook and I especially like this step by step breakdown by Kristina Allen of how she built a great list very fast using a Facebook contest she set up.

This is a strategy almost anyone can use, whether you are promoting digital or physical products or services or consulting for a client who does. Check it out here:

Her story and several other great examples are featured in this excellent post from Social Media Examiner which provides other ways to build lists via Facebook, always relying on that crucial factor: hitting those emotional buttons:
