PREFACE: WELCOME!
Hello and welcome
First of all, I wanted to say thanks for
putting your trust in me.
My name is Greg Kononenko and I live in
Sydney, Australia with my family who I
love very much – my wife and our little
daughter.
I know from my personal experience
that in the "Make Money Online" niche it
is hard to come by material that is truly
useful.
That's why I am really excited to be sharing my information with you, because
I am convinced that you will find the course useful, concise, and easy to follow.
Who am I and what have I done online?
I have been online for quite some time, since 2006, so that’s about 100 years
in Internet Marketing terms
I have done quite a few things, but kept going up and down like a yo-yo until I
found list building.
I built my first affiliate site (in 2006) promoting dog training products, and
was driving traffic using Google AdWords. I made one sale with a $26
commission after spending about $150 on traffic.
I then bought a course called “Niche Marketing On Crack” (great product for
its time by the way) by a fellow Aussie – Andrew Hansen. The strategy worked
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko

really well, and I made some really good money by building an army of tiny
blogs…
It was great, I went to well over $100 per day – until I lost it all. One by one,
they were getting killed off by Google who thought they were too “thin” in
terms of content and didn’t provide any value. So Google kept deindexing
them.
I then got into eBay. That was around 2009 I think.
I bought an awesome plug-in called “phpBay” and started churning out dozens
of eBay sites – primarily in the Golf niche, but also in sewing machines,
glassware, you name it.
I have built probably close to 100 of those things.
Again – the same thing, as soon as my business started going really well and I
was starting to think of quitting work, Google demolished my whole business.
I knew something had to change…
That’s when I found list building
I had a year and a bit off Internet Marketing, bought a franchise and lost a lot
of money on it (which is a completely different story) and then in 2013, I
started to seriously consider doing IM again, but something different this time.
That’s when I turned my attention to List Building.
It just made sense. I didn’t want to be at the mercy of Google any more.
I wanted to be able to promote directly to my customers – and when you have
a list that’s exactly what you can do. You send an email, and your target
audience will get it. Nothing can take your list away from you.
Slowly, I started buying various products on the Warrior Forum, and testing a
few different approaches.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko

It was working pretty well… I started building lists in Weight Loss and
Bodybuilding niches, and that’s how my current business started. I slowly
progressed, grew my knowledge, and in August 2014 I decided to start
building a different type of email list – a BUYERS email list.
I kept hearing about it, that the buyers lists are much more profitable, and
decided to go for it.
I released my own product, based on the knowledge of list building that I had,
and launched my WSO on the Warrior Forum at the end of September 2014.
My product was called “Autopilot Commission Blueprint”, and some of you
reading this may have purchased it.
The launch went extremely well for my first attempt, I ended up with a buyers
list of just over 200 subscribers, and I can tell you – THIS STUFF WORKS!
Buyers email lists are much more responsive, and much more profitable.
That’s how the idea of this WSO
started brewing in my head…
List Building, in my eyes, is just so much more powerful and reliable than
Search Engine Optimization, because you are in control.
And there is a LOT of money to be made with List Building.
However, there is even MORE money to be made with building a Buyers list.
And that’s exactly what we are going to talk about in this report.
This report will probably challenge
your belief in yourself...
As you read this report, if you have never created your own product before,
you may come across sections where you might think that it’s just too hard
and you can’t do it.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko

I want to let you know that this is exactly how I felt only 3 short months
ago.
In July 2014, I never ever, ever, ever thought that by October 2014 I would
have released 2 successful WSO’s.
However, all it took for me to change my point of view is to JUST DO IT.
I didn’t think I could release a WSO, I didn’t know what to write about, and I
didn’t think that people would want to buy my stuff.
But I said “screw it, I’m just gonna do it”. And I did it – and that’s exactly how it
will happen for you too.
Plus don’t forget - we have an awesome Facebook support group, where all of
the customers who have purchased this product will hang out and help each
other.
I will also be there to support and give answers to any questions you have.
Plus… we will have a few big-name marketers in that group as well, who will
be able to provide their expertise to you. I won’t spoil the fun and tell you who
exactly right now – you’ll have to join to find out
So, without any further delay, make sure you do this RIGHT NOW:
Join the “Black Belt List Building Secrets” Facebook Group!
I truly believe that for many of you, this group will be the most valuable thing
you participate in this whole year.
Here is my vision for the group:
Your fellow marketers, myself, and a few unannounced big-name guests
will answer the questions you have
You can partner up and build life-long connections with fellow like-
minded internet marketing warriors, so that you can help each other
implement the techniques I talk about in this guide
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko

Space to vent and bounce things off other people – IM is a lonely
business sometimes, and it’s good to just be able to talk to some people
You will gain a lot of knowledge FOR FREE because you will be sharing
your products with your fellow marketers, and you all will learn
something new from each person
Lastly...
These are the foundations of what can be a life-changing opportunity for you.
I want you to take this opportunity with both hands, and go for it.
If you get stuck – ask away in the Facebook group.
If you JUST DO IT, there is no way you can fail.
The only sure-fire way to FAIL is to take no action
Without any further delay, let's get into the details!
To your success,
Greg Kononenko

MODULE 1: WHAT IS ALL THIS
ABOUT?
In a nutshell, here is what we are going to talk about in this course:
It's about an opportunity to build a HUGE asset, which can provide you with a
very comfortable income.
So let's begin...
What the heck is a buyers list, Greg?
I'm glad you asked!
It's basically an email list, which is made up of buyers.
They are people who have purchased something in your niche. Maybe it was
your own product. Or an affiliate offer that you promoted. It doesn't matter.
What matters is that we know that they have SPENT MONEY and we know
which product they have spent money on.
Now...
What is the difference between a
buyers list and a normal list?
Just in case you have not heard of this before - the difference is
MASSIVE. Yep, I had to increase the font size to show just huge it is ;)
If you have a list of 1,000 people who downloaded a free report that you have
offered them to opt-in to your list, they are basically freebie-seekers until
proven otherwise.
Freebie lists are generally full of people who may never spend money. And
they don't necessarily trust you. They don't really know you.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
13
With the buyers list though, these people clearly have spent money on a
product. And all research, including my own experience so far, clearly proves
that they will spend again for sure.
Additionally, if the buyers have bought YOUR product, it means they trusted
you enough to buy it. Therefore they will trust you again - unless you end up
breaking that trust somehow.
So it is important that you maintain that trust. If you keep sending 2
promotions per day to your buyers, and promote low-quality products, they
will stop trusting you very quickly and will unsubscribe.
So what EXACTLY can a buyers list do?
If you send an email to a freebie list, with an affiliate promotion, you can
expect that something like 2-10% of those people will open your email, maybe
2-3% will click on a link in that email.
And chances are you may not make a single sale...
With the buyers list, it's a whole different ball game.
Let me start by showing you something... Here are two emails that I have sent
to two of my lists. One to a freebie list and the other one to a buyers list:
Freebie list example 1
Ok guys so here you can see that I got what is considered to be pretty good
results (for me anyway and for many others) on a typical broadcast to a list of
freebie-seekers.
I got a 7.49% open rate and 2.09% click rate. No, I didn't make any sales.
So let's now look into what happens when I send emails to the buyers list.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
14
Buyers list example 1
This was a promotion email I sent on the 3rd of October.
32.5% open rate and 19.8% click rate.
Big difference, isn't it? And yes, I made sales...
Buyers list example 2
This was sent on the 1st of October, and then resent to those who didn't open
the first email.
36.9% open rate and 20.2% click rate
And again, yes, I made sales.
In fact, here is a screenshot I took about 2 hours after I sent the first email:
It was a Warrior Forum WSO (Warrior Special Offer) report product I
promoted.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
15
Can you believe it? 16 clicks, 15 sales, 91% conversion AND $80.27 in
commissions. It then went on to make a couple more sales.
Admittedly, this is the best conversion result I have had so far, but I think you
are starting to sense that
Having a buyers list is very very lucrative
If you manage to build a great relationship with them, where you provide real
value to your subscribers, and manage to turn them into your lifetime
subscribers, you have just found a source of income for life.
Mind you - my buyers list at the moment is not very big.
You can see in the example above - I sent an email to 84 subscribers. And I
made a total of $90 or so from that one email.
Imagine if you have a list of 1,000 responsive buyers. Or 10,000…
Do you see just how insanely powerful this is???
They will buy again and again and again - as long as they trust you and like
you.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko

MODULE 2: HOW TO BUILD YOUR
BUYERS LIST
Welcome to the next module!
Now we're going to learn how to actually build this super-list of buyers.
I will talk you through the options, and then we'll jump into the detail of how
to implement each one.
Essentially, it comes down to 3 options:
Option 1: create your own product
This is by far the best way, even though it's a bit more complex. When
someone buys and pays, they'll get automatically captured to your buyers list.
Massive pay-off for a significant effort.
Warning: DO NOT discount this option right away. I know what you're
thinking. Too difficult, I'll never be able to do it.
That's exactly how I felt, and I was very wrong. 3 months ago, I could not even
imagine I could make my own product. And now... you are reading this report,
right?
I will show you how you can do this, simply.
Option 2: promote someone else's offer as affiliate
With this option, you can offer a bonus to your customers if they purchase
through your link.
To claim the bonus, the customers will have to enter their email, and this way
they'll go on your buyers list.
More in that in one of the upcoming sections.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
17
Option 3: offer a bonus to someone else's product
This one is a little bit "out of the box" thinking and I really like this idea.
Basically what you do it create a valuable digital asset of some sort and give it
to a product creator, who then places it on the download link.
That way you get the buyer opt-ins.
For example, it can be your report, which you are giving away for free in this
particular instance as a bonus exclusive to this buyer.
Or it can be a squeeze page template. Or a list of sites that have guest blogging
feature. That sort of thing. Anything really - but it needs to be valuable to your
target market.
Then you approach someone who release products and offer them to include
your item as the bonus to be included on the download page.
So whenever someone buys the main product, they will also download your
product from the download page.
Your link will take them to a squeeze page where they'll leave their email
address in exchange for your bonus.
You both win, because now the seller has an extra incentive to offer his
buyers, as his package has now become more valuable.
And you win because you will gain buyers without doing much work.
I will talk through the details of how this might work in a later module.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
18
MODULE 3: HOW TO WRITE YOUR
OWN PRODUCT FROM SCRATCH
DO NOT BE AFRAID - you can create your own product.
You absolutely can.
If someone told me 3 months ago that I would have 2 successful products
launched in 3 months’ time, I would think that they were crazy.
But... I met the right people, who explained to me essentially the same stuff I'm
explaining to you here, and this knowledge really changed my perspective on
the internet business.
I got the confidence to put out my own product. Yes it was hard work, but now
it is paying off big time.
And you can do the same!
You can absolutely create your own product to sell.
It can be a software product, such as a Wordpress plugin.
It can be a collection of squeeze page templates.
It can be a report, similar to the one you are reading right now.
For the purposes of example in this guide, I will focus on the hardest and
probably the most common option, and then will touch on the simpler
examples.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
19
How to create your own report
Firstly, I want to explain why you want to create your own products. There
are massive benefits to doing so, and here is exactly why:
You are creating an asset, which you can leverage forever and ever.
Some examples of how you can leverage it:
o Sell and make a profit right away, and build your buyers list
o Get affiliates to sell your product for commission. They'll make
money, you'll get buyers on your list without doing any work
o You can offer your product as a bonus to someone else's product
on their download page, and you will get buyer opt-ins without
doing any work
o You can offer your own product as an upsell to another product
that you release in the future
o You can offer your product as a $1 upsell to a free report to build a
buyers list (soooo many people will easily spend $1 - and more on
that technique later in the report)
... and this is just the beginning - there are many more reasons why you really
need to create your own products – but we will focus on the ones above in this
report.
Most people are experts in something. And if you are not yet an expert, you
can easily become an expert by researching something or buying products
about it.
And if you don't want to become an expert, then you can use PLR - more on
that in next chapter.
So by now, if I've done my job, you should have run out of excuses ;) Just
remember - YOU CAN DO IT!
To give you an example, I wrote my first report called "Autopilot Commission
Blueprint" in September 2014.
I have been building lists online for several years, and they were all just
generic lists. I never separated them into buyers or freebie seekers.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
20
I used quite simple techniques.
So when it came time for me to write my own product, I just wrote about that.
I wrote everything that I knew, packaged it into a PDF and started selling it on
the Warrior Forum.
It went live on the 24th of September. Today, as I'm writing this, it's the 12th
of October, so it has been a little less than 3 weeks since the launch.
And here are my stats: 137 sales, and I get a few more sales coming in every
day.
Now I'm not showing this to brag... Besides there's not a whole lot there to
brag about :)
The reason I'm showing this is to tell you that it's possible, even if you think
it's not. So how can you create your report?
Step 1 - choose a niche in demand
First you need to decide on the topic.
You need to make sure that it's something that is in demand.
A great way to come up with a good topic is to browse the section of the
Warrior Forum that you're interested in.
For example, Email Marketing. Or Affiliate Marketing.
Have a look at what people are asking questions about.
In addition, head over to www.warriorplus.com and look at the hottest-selling
offers. You can do that by going into the "affiliates" section and then looking at
the WSO's that have sold 100 or more copies.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
21
The topics that are always in demand and sell well are:
YouTube
Traffic generation
Affiliate marketing
List building
Kindle
Step 2 - create a product outline
Now you have a basic idea about what you will write your report on.
Your goal is to write something that is 30-40 pages. You don't want anything
longer, because your buyers won't want anything longer. It has to be
something that a person can read in 1 hour or so.
For example, with this report, I am trying very hard to keep it under 40 pages,
and will update this section once I’m finished.
EDIT 19th October 2014 – despite my best efforts, this has gone over 56
pages
If you don't have enough information on the topic just yet, then either google
more information, or buy a couple of good products on this topic.
Of course, you cannot copy word for word what's in those products. But you
can definitely borrow ideas, combine ideas from different sources with your
own, and then rewrite them in your own words.
So your goal in this step is to create a plan for your product with bullet points.
To give you an example, here is the outline that I prepared when I was writing
this report:
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
22
As you can see, nothing ground-breaking. Took me about 20 minutes to create.
Easy.
Step 3 - get writing!
Now that you've got your plan, just sit and write.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
23
Don't worry about formatting or spelling or getting it perfect. Just write as
quickly as you can. You've got the outline in front of you, so just put the
content out there as quickly as you can in your own words.
It should not take you more than 4-5 hours to write the whole thing. So you
can easily do it in one day.
Once you've written the first draft, take a break and come back and edit it.
This is the time when you can pretty it up.
Step 4 - the upsell (optional)
This step is optional, but highly recommended.
An upsell (also called OTO - one time offer) is a good thing. It can put more
money into your pocket.
At the same time, our goal here is to build a buyers list. So you don't HAVE to
create an upsell.
However, if you can think of an upsell and you believe you'd like to do it, then I
highly recommend you go for it.
The upsell has to be something that perfectly complements the main report
and does at least one of these three things:
Solves a problem that the main product creates
Helps achieve faster or greater results
Takes away work and saves time
For example, in my product "Autopilot Commission Blueprint" I describe how
to build your list building system.
I talk about finding a profitable product, creating a squeeze page, a thank you
page, writing a free report, creating email series.
Then my upsell proposition is: how about I do most of this upfront work for
you? And I provided 2 fully researched niches (weight loss and bodybuilding),
including which products to promote.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
24
I also included the thank you pages, squeeze pages, email content etc.
See how the upsell solves the problem that the main product creates?
And so far here are my stats: 52% of people who buy the main course buy the
upsell.
Step 5 - create a sales page
Do not be alarmed! It's not that hard
What you need to do is read 4-5 pages of products that have sold 100 or more
copies on the WarriorPlus.com website.
When you search the products like I showed you before, you will be able to
see the conversion % of each product.
So focus on those that convert at 10% or better and have sold over 100 copies.
It means the sales copy is good enough.
Next, rewrite the sales copy of one of them - of course you are not allowed to
copy. But you can borrow the format, just rewrite in your own words.
If you are stuck, then here is a simple formula you can follow:
Headline
o Write it so that it says what you are selling:
o For example: Discover the secret to making monster commissions
and sky-high conversions through building a super-profitable list
of buyers
Then ask a couple of pain questions, like:
o Are you frustrated with x, y, z?
o Are you struggling with a, b, c?
o Does it irritate you if you can’t do e, f, g?
Then transition:
o Tell them you know how they feel, because you used to struggle
with that (I usually teach on things I had to learn, so they seem to
be things I’ve personally struggled with)
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
25
o I tell them my struggle
o Then I tell them what I have discovered, created, etc.
Then bullets:
o They are the points that you've created writing the outline
o Just try to convert them into benefits, so instead of saying "how to
build an email list", which is a feature, you would want to say
"how to command high conversions and reliable commissions by
building a super-powerful buyers list"
Then tell them they should buy it before the price goes up.
Then the payment button.
That’s about it.
You've now got your report, as well as your sales page.
If you have decided to create an upsell, then you'll need a sales page for it
as well.
The upsell page needs to be a little different and it should get straight to
the point: thanks for purchasing, you will get the download link in your
email, in the meantime here is an opportunity to achieve faster results.
And then you give the rest of the spill.
We will talk about launching it in a moment.... But for now let's talk about
the other option of getting your product - which is PLR.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
26
MODULE 4: HOW TO SELL PLR
PLR stands for Private Label Rights. If you're not familiar with what it is,
basically when you buy a product with PLR rights, you can do whatever you
want with it. You get full rights to change it, modify the content, and put your
name on it and sell as your own.
PLR is a great way to get started. It often has a bit of a bad stigma with it,
because people immediately think it's really bad quality.
And often, unfortunately, it is the case. So you need to be vigilant and do some
research before you buy something.
IMPORTANT: you MUST repackage all PLR products. What I mean is that you
need to create a new cover, and give it a new name. This is to ensure that your
product actually looks different to what it looked like when someone else sold
it.
You can get a new ebook cover made for $5 on Fiverr – just look for a gig
searching for keywords “ebook cover”.
Example of finding a PLR product
I will give an example of using PLR in the Internet Marketing niche. You can
then easily translate that into something else if you would like to choose a
different niche
So let me show you something. Here is an example that will spin you out a bit...
Check out this PLR offer from the Warrior Forum, dated 17 May 2014:
http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-special-offers/939289-grab-50-
new-mobile-optimized-squeeze-pages-double-your-opt-rates-instantly-
plr.html
These are 50 mobile-friendly squeeze pages with PLR rights. Looks nice, right?
I would buy this. In fact, I've already bought them :)

Now check this out:
http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-special-offers/964406-get-full-plr-
mobile-money-high-converting-squeeze-page-all-done-newbie.html
This post is dated 9th of July.
Can you see anything suspicious going on?
THEY ARE THE SAME PRODUCT!
And both of them have made sales.
The guy that posted in July just took the other offer, repackaged it, created a
new sales page, and is reselling it.
And guess what?
There are lots of others doing the same! They buy PLR and resell it.
Can you see yourself doing it too? I'm pretty sure you are getting excited now.
Here is how to find high quality PLR.
PLR Source 1: Warrior Forum
Go to Warrior Forum. If you are not registered, register.
Then go into "search" and "advanced search".
Then in the keywords section, type in "plr" and under the option "Search in
Forum(s)" choose the "Warrior Special Offers" forum.
Then just go through the search results until you find something that you
think you can resell.
I have just done this, and found two AWESOME products to sell in under 3
minutes. Here are the links:

awesome-new-custom-plr-software-step-up-streamline.html
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko

This is a great software which would be in demand by a lot of people.
http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-special-offers/949169-new-plr-
massive-audio-course-how-make-up-150-000-per-year-online-taught-
me.html
I haven't bought it, so don't know about the quality, but judging from the
reviews the quality is pretty good.
And there are literally hundreds of options out there.
PLR Source 2: Google research and other sites
You can always google for "[your niche] PLR" and see what comes up.
Or you can buy from sites like these:
http://master-resale-rights.com/
http://www.tradebit.com/
Just beware of quality - you may need to buy a few different items before you
find something of decent quality.
What to do with PLR
Even if you find something of decent quality, you should change as much
content inside of it as you can - to make your product unique.
Next - follow the steps in the previous chapter to:
Create the outline of what you product can do
Edit your PLR if necessary
Do not forget to repackage the PLR product and create a new cover for
it using a gig on Fiverr
Create the sales page

MODULE 5: HOW TO SELL
SOFTWARE
I have to be upfront with you - this is not something I have personally tried.
However, I believe there is great potential with PLR software. I just have not
had a chance to do this yet, because I've been busy writing PDF's
Here is an example of what you can sell, I just typed in "wordpress PLR
plugin" into Google, and the first result I saw was this:
http://sellplrplugins.com/effortless-landing-pages/
Looks like an awesome, very functional plugin. And it comes with PLR rights.
I'm sure many people would buy it - wouldn't you pay $7 for something like
this?
Just like with the other PLR products, DO NOT forget to change the name,
logo and order a new image package (software box or similar) for your
product using a Fiverr gig
Ok - this was a very brief chapter, I just wanted to show you what's possible.
Let's move on to how you can sell your stuff.

MODULE 6: SELLING YOUR
PRODUCT
In this example, we are working with Warrior Forum, because this is what has
worked for me.
I will explain to you a basic set up. There are huge variations of this, but this is
a very solid set up for someone who is just starting out.
How to put together your offer
Here is what you will need:
A domain
Hosting
Autoresponder
Your product (report or software)
WarriorPlus.com will be the platform which you will use to sell.
They take care of most things, like collecting payments, and delivering the
product to the buyer.
What you need to do
Website / Product:
You will need to upload your product, in a ZIP file, to your server
If you decided to include an upsell, then upload it to your server as well
Autoresponder:
Create a list, name it whatever you like. This will be your buyers list
Once you've created the list, you will be able to integrate it on Warrior
Plus so that all of your buyers are immediately added to the email list
WarriorPlus set up:
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
31
Warrior Plus is going to take care of everything - from hosting your
offer, to processing payments, to making sure that the buyers are added
to your mailing list
The process is very well covered by the WarriorPlus.com support
knowledge base. The link is below
https://www.warriorplus.com/support/knowledgebase.php?category=11
Process overview is here:
NOTE: First offer that you submit on WarriorPlus will need to be manually
approved. Your second and subsequent offers on Warrior Plus will be
approved instantly, so the process becomes much easier.
WarriorPlus :
o Create a “product” for your main product
o Create a “product” for the upsell
o Set the prices for both
o Create your “offer” (which is your funnel, combination of main
product and the upsell)
o Set up the sales funnel (detailed instructions at the link above)
o For the sales page URL’s, do the following:
Your “main” product sales page will be the Warrior Forum
thread, so type in a note “New Warrior Forum Thread To Be
Created” for now
You Upsell (OTO) sales pages – put the sales page on your
own website and put the link to the sales page into the
relevant product
o Don’t worry about the button codes just yet, submit it as is – it
should get approved
o Submit your “offer” for approval (you only have to do this with the
first offer)
Warrior Forum:
o AFTER your WarriorPlus offer is approved, do the following
o Create your Warrior Forum Sales Thread in the WSO section
following their instructions
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
32
o Retype your sales page into the thread
o In the places where your sales button should go, put in the button
code you got at Warrior Plus into the sales thread
o Submit it for approval
o Don’t pay for it until you want the offer to go live
Once both are approved:
o Insert the OTO button codes into the OTO sales pages hosted
externally
o Hit the “launch” button in WarriorPlus
o Quickly go over to Warrior Forum, and pay for the thread (you
will get a PM from the admin with instructions)
o As soon as you pay, the WSO thread will go live
o Grab the URL of your WSO thread, and the head back over to
WarriorPlus into your offer, and enter your WSO URL as the sales
page URL as shown below:
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
33
Now you are good to go!
Don’t forget – all of this is covered here:
https://www.warriorplus.com/support/knowledgebase.php?category=11
Of course Google is also your best friend.
But if you do get stuck in any of the steps, just ask a question in the Facebook
Group!

MODULE 7: HOW TO BUILD YOUR
BUYERS LIST USING OTHER
PEOPLE'S PRODUCTS
Ok so in this module we will be covering ways to build your buyers list even if
you don't want to create your own product (even though you should )
If you already have a list of people who have not yet bought anything from
you, then you can apply this method.
Also, if you don't yet have a list, but would like to start building a list using a
free offer of some sort, then you can also use this technique.
Ok, let's get the buyer subs going!..
If you don't sell own products to your list, then you probably send them
affiliate offers, right?
Normally, you send an email with affiliate offers... And then you get email
notifications saying you've made a sale, like these:
But, there is no way for you to know who of your subscribers has made a
sale... Therefore you cannot separate them out from your main list and move
them to the special "buyers list" which you can treat very differently.
So, one technique that works quite well is to...
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
35
Lure them in with bonuses!
What you can do is make it very clear in your email, that if they make a
purchase through your link, then you will give them an extra-special bonus.
And when they try to get the bonus, there are special techniques to remove
them from the freebie list into the buyers list, which I'll cover in a moment...
To give you an example of a bonus offer, if they buy this list building product
using your link, you will give them a complete 30-day pre-written email
campaign.
Or if they buy this Facebook traffic video course through your link, you will
give them a 15-minute video of you setting up the Facebook traffic machine
using this product.
You get the drift - something that is very valuable and complements the offer
you are promoting.
So in the body of the email you can write something like this:
"I have come up with a really cool special offer, for my
subscribers only:
If you decide to purchase [Facebook traffic video course]
through my link, I have thrown in a bonus which I hope
you'll love.
The bonus is a video of me using the techniques in this
report to set up the Facebook traffic machine in 15
minutes, which resulting in driving 75 visitors from
Facebook to my opt-in page.
To access the bonus, [instructions]"
Makes sense, right?
Who wouldn't want this video of you getting these kind of results? They will
probably want it more than the main product itself
How to add them to the buyers list - the easy way
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
36
Here are a couple of ways to do this.
For Internet Marketing and Software products, for this method I strongly
recommend you stick to promoting products on WarriorPlus.com and
JVZoo.com.
The reason for that is that they have conveniently made a "bonus" feature
available for affiliates promoting other people's products.
So let's go through a WarriorPlus.com example. Let's say you wanted to
promote my first WSO "Autopilot Commission Blueprint" to your freebie list.
So you'd go and find my offer in the Affiliates->Offers menu:
Searching by vendors name:
And here it is:
Click on it, and then go to "Link Details" option:
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
37
Who would have thought, here is the "Buyers Bonus URL" option we need!
What you need to do is place your buyers list opt-in page link into that box.
When someone makes a purchase using your affiliate link, they will be sent an
email by WarriorPlus with the receipt and the instructions on how to access
their purchase.
If you enter something into that Buyers Bonus URL, when your customer goes
in to WarriorPlus to access their purchase, they will have an extra box on their
access page saying "Access Your Bonus".
When they click that link, it will then take them to the URL you have specified,
at which point they will arrive to your Buyers Bonus Optin page.
Once they type in their email address, they will be added to your
autoresponder Buyers email list. And you can also set up an automation rule
to simultaneously remove them from the freebie list.
JOB DONE - buyer moved to your buyers list, even without your own product.
In order to make this work, you have to make it very clear in your email
exactly how they should access their bonus.
So using our email example above, I would add a paragraph saying:
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
38
"To access the bonus, here is what you need to do:
1. Purchase the product using the links in this email
2. Find the email from WarriorPlus with the [RECEIPT] in
the subject line, and click the link that states
"ACCESS YOUR PURCHASE HERE"
3. When taken inside the Downloads area, click the "Access
Affiliate Bonus" URL, confirm your email and you will
be presented with the [your bonus offer]
4. If you are having any troubles accessing the bonus,
then reply to this email with your WarriorPlus
transaction ID and I will rush it to you personally"
Note on JVZoo: they have exact same feature, it's in the Affiliate menu section,
under Affiliate Bonuses:
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
39
How to add them to the buyers list - the HARD way
If you have decided to use this method outside the IM niche, or in the IM niche
but not on WarriorPlus or JVZoo, you can still do it, but in a more manual
fashion.
Method 1 (if you are a suspicious type of person):
In the promo email, tell your subscriber to email you their purchase receipt,
which you will then verify and make sure they really purchased. In response,
manually email them the link to the buyers optin page.
The good thing about this method is that you are certain you've got a buyer
onto your list. The negative is that they may not have in fact made the
purchase.
Method 2 (if you love automation):
Create the buyer optin squeeze page that has the following fields:
Name
Email address
Transaction ID / Receipt ID
Put some instructions at the top on what they need to do and where they have
to find the transaction ID.
In your email, you can put the instructions to say that if they want to claim
their bonus, they need to make the purchase, then click the link you have
provided, and enter their details, including transaction ID. Then tell them once
the purchase details have been verified, they will receive an email with the
bonus.
In your autoresponder, you can then create a new list, and make the first
message in it sound like the purchase has just been verified, and here is their
bonus.
As you can probably see, there is some potential for "bonus fraud" here,
however in all honesty if someone has gone into that much trouble to get your
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
40
bonus, they probably are as good as a normal buyer and deserve to be on your
special buyers list :)
Method 3 (if you are suspicious AND use Wordpress and Clickbank):
There is a Wordpress plugin that can actually validate the purchase your
customer has made, it will check with Clickbank via integration and will only
deliver the bonus if the customer has really made the purchase.
It also integrates with Aweber, GetResponse and other autoresponders to then
deliver the bonus.
I have not personally used this plugin, but it has pretty good reviews, and you
are welcome to check it out if it sounds like something you're interested in.

MODULE 8: PROFITS MODULE
By now we have covered why having a buyers list is so profitable. We have
also talked about every possible way of building a buyers list.
In this module, I want to cover the ways you can profit from the buyers list.
The methods are different mini-strategies you can deploy in order to build
your buyers list.
Profit Method 1: Launch and Recruit Affiliates
This is the exact method I used to launch my first WSO “Autopilot Commission
Blueprint”.
Here is what you will do:
Place your product and your upsell (also called OTO – One Time Offer)
onto WarriorPlus.com using the instructions in the earlier chapter
Price it starting at $4 or $5 and make it go on a dimesale, with
increments of $0.05 or $0.10 cents to create buyer urgency
It’s a good idea to set commissions for the initial product at 100% and
the OTO commissions at 50% - that way you will attract the affiliates
As soon as you launch, you will see that affiliates are requesting to
promote your product
Reach out to each affiliate, thank them, ask them what you can do to
help them promote your product
Start networking with others in our Black Belt List Building Secrets
Facebook group to start growing these connections
The aim of this strategy is to make some sales yourself through Warrior
Forum traffic, as well as to leverage affiliates.
The WSO section of the Warrior Forum section is actually a very busy
marketplace with up to 8,000 people viewing it.
So you will get some sales just by placing your offer there.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
42
Additionally, because you are giving away 100% commissions on the
frontend, a lot of affiliates will want to promote your product to their lists too.
You may not attract huge affiliates at first, but you may attract some – and at
the beginning every sale counts.
So you are basically giving away the upfront payment in exchange for the
opportunity to get a buyer onto your list, who you can then market to again
and again.
Profit Method 2: Free WSO’s and $1 upsells
Free WSO’s are a very powerful way of driving high quality traffic.
I am writing this section on the 19th of October. Check out these screenshots.
As you can see, the right-most column has the number of views (traffic) each
of these posts on the Warrior Forum has received.
They are pretty strong numbers.
Here is another one that got posted less than 24 hours ago:
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
43
As you can see, in less than 24 hours Barb Ling's Free WSO has received 74
views. Her WSO is still in the upper part of the first page of the WSO sub-
forum. She will continue to receive views until her WSO drops off the second
page. By which time, my guess is that she will have had about 300-400 views.
It's a free offer, so chances are that about 30-50% of people who have viewed
her post will probably end up downloading it.
We can actually check this out by searching for this offer in the
WarriorPlus.com “offers” section.
Here it is:
You can see she’s getting a 38% conversion. Crazy, right?
So it means that 38% of people looking at this offer end up opting in.
That's conservatively 114 people (300 views, 38% conversion = 114).
To post a free WSO will cost you $20, meaning your cost per subscriber is only
$0.17 which is really cheap. If you are building your list through solo ads, you
are looking at $0.80-$1.00 per subscriber. Plus Warrior Forum subscribers
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
44
will be higher quality overall, as they are generally more educated in IM and
willing to spend money.
So free WSO's can give you a great source of high-quality free subscribers, and
you can then market your own or affiliate offers to them, and move those who
purchase onto your buyers list.
Here is how to profit from this method.
IMPORTANT - we are trying to create a buyers list here, so the funnel
example I've provided below talks about selling an upsell product to them.
Trust me, it doesn't have to be anything life-changing, because we are only
trying to charge $1. Just give it a go - you will be surprised at the results you
can achieve.
The quality of a buyer subscriber who has paid $1 is exactly the same as
someone who has paid $17. They are willing to spend money with you, and
that's what is important with this model.
Create a free product or report of some value, or use PLR
o Ideas to get you started:
Report on one simple problem and one simple solution
PLR squeeze pages, PLR software, PLR plugins
Check out other successful WSO's
Create a $1 upsell
o Following on from the PLR squeeze page pack example, if you use
that as your freebie, then your upsell can be a $1 pack of 14 done-
for-you emails in the same niche where your squeeze pages are
Place both products on WarriorPlus.com as discussed in the earlier
chapters, with the main difference being that you want to set your price
for the main product at $0 and the upsell at $1
Set up your autoresponder with:
o The freebie list
o The buyer list
o The freebie optin page
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
45
o Follow up series for your freebie subscribers marketing your $1
upsell to them for the next 3-5 days
o Any other follow up messages you'd like to create - perhaps
marketing your other products, or marketing some affiliate offers
with a call to action to claim the bonus (as discussed in the earlier
chapters)
o Set up the automation rule to unsubscribe the subscriber from
your freebie list when they subscribe to your buyer list
Set up your funnel in such a way that when someone opts in to your free
report, they are presented with the following page:
o Thank them and tell them that the free report is on the way
o In the meantime, here is a special $1 offer that you'd like to
present to them
o Create a sales pitch for your $1 upsell just underneath the thank
you message
Submit your Warrior Forum thread and the WarriorPlus offer as
discussed earlier in the guide
Watch the freebie and buyer subscribers roll in :)
If you get stuck with any of the technical details, Google it – there are lots and
lots of tutorials out there.
If you still need some help – jump over to the Facebook group and ask, and
someone from the group or I will help.
So just to recap – in this method we are leveraging the power of free traffic on
the Warrior Forum, and the $1 “low barrier” entry to our buyers list.
Profit Method 3: Traffic using Google Hangouts On Air
This is a very new, very cool and pretty much untapped source of traffic and
profits.
Talking specifically about how to build a buyers list using Google Hangouts on
Air, we want to record a hangout, and then drive the traffic that we are going
to get onto our sales page.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
46
Two very important things will happen when you record your Hangout:
You can automatically have it broadcasted via YouTube, giving you
traffic
Hangout videos have a Showcase App feature on them, which looks like
this:
As you know, normal YouTube videos don't have this highlighted section on
them. So the only way to drive traffic from normal YouTube videos is by
placing a link in the video description below the video, which has a very low
click-through rate.
However, with the Hangout on Air and the Showcase app, you will be able to
have the box saying "Be part of the conversation" on top of the video, which
will have very high click throughs.
Once the visitor clicks on the “Be part of the conversation” link, here is what
they will see:
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
47
They will still see the video, which they can watch. And they will also see your
offer, whatever you decide to showcase, on the right hand side, which I've
marked in the red box.
That way they can click on the link saying "more" and they'll be taken to any
destination you'd like to send them to.
Here is how to profit from it:
This method works well if you're trying to build a list with IM products,
like WSO's
Go to WarriorPlus and use the search features there to find a recent
product that fits the following criteria:
o Over 100 sales
o Over $0.50 earnings per click
o Less than 10% refund rate
Note it's best if the product is recent - that way you will have less
competition trying to rank your review
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
48
Now prepare a review of that product, and in the review make sure you
talk about the bonus you will provide if someone buys through your
link.
Your review only needs to be 2-3 minutes
Record the Hangout on Air with the Showcase app feature enabled, and
make it Public
For your titles and descriptions, include the product name and the
author name and "review"
Put your affiliate link into the section where the Hangout asks for the
URL
Share the hangout on YouTube, that way you will have a video
Share the URL of your video to your target audience:
o Into your WarriorForum signature link, make some valuable posts
and people will click your signature link
o If you have an existing email list, you can invite them to check out
your video review
You will also start getting some visitors through organic methods,
because your review will most likely rank in Google very quickly for
search phrases relating to the product you are promoting
This only takes 20-30 mins to do, so you can record many of these per
day
You can also view a free video with some good instructions here.
Profit Method 4: Build your buyers list by giving away bonuses
This is a very simple method, but don't let this fact fool you - it is EXTREMELY
profitable!
Here is how it works.
You will have your own product of some sort. Free report, maybe some PLR
product, or even something that you are currently selling for let's say $7.
You will contact someone who is selling a product that is related to yours. You
will strike up a partnership with them where they will place your product on
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
49
their download page. So on their download page, after someone pays, they'll
have the link to their product (which someone purchased), and just below that
a section to Bonuses. And your product will be one of those bonuses.
Here is an example Download page where I've used that technique for
Autopilot Commission Blueprint:
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
50
As you can see, I have struck a partnership with a couple of marketers out
there who have given me their products to put on the Download page in
exchange for something I can do for them.
I have placed their bonuses just below the actual download page.
In return, a couple of them have done the same thing for me, and here is
something to demonstrate the power of that technique:
As you can see, I received 133 opt-ins from the bonus swap. And that was the
very first one that I have done. So this is a very powerful technique.
(Don't be alarmed by the fact that it appears that they've all unsubscribed. I'm
using AW Pro Tools to automatically move my Bonus subscribers to my
"valued clients" list so I don't have to manage multiple lists – so I still have
them all).
Here is how you can strike up the partnership:
If you are both launching a product:
o You will offer to place your partner's Bonus on your download
page in exchange for them placing your Bonus on their download
page
If you are launching a product and they've got a list they can email about
your offer:
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
51
o You will offer to place your partner's Bonus on your download
page in exchange for them emailing their list to promote your
offer
Some variations of the above - maybe you want to do both
Where to find JV partners:
The best place to start would be our Black Belt List Building Secrets
Facebook Group!
I have a vision for our group to be a really powerful community of people who
are very serious about building profitable buyers lists, and are helping each
other.
Once the community grows, you will be able to find life-long business partners
with whom you can team up for things like bonus swaps, email promotion and
much much more.
Another potential place is the WarriorForum JV section:

MODULE 9: HOW TO MAKE MONEY
FROM YOUR BUYERS LIST
This is probably the most obvious part of the whole PDF, however I believe
this is also the most important part.
The main reason for us building a buyers list is of course to make money.
And the best way to do this is to send affiliate offers to your list.
There are other, more advanced things you can do, as your buyers list grows -
for example offering group coaching and one-on-one coaching.
However, as you are first starting out, the best thing to do is to send straight
forward affiliate offers, mixed with some content emails.
What to promote
Since we are focusing on the Internet Marketing niche for this report, the best
offers to promote are:
Recent WarriorPlus WSO's (pick those that are closely matched to your
list interests, have sold 50+ copies, have a conversion rate of 8-10% or
more, refunds of 5% or less, and EPC of $0.70 or more)
Products from JVZoo which fit the above criteria
Your partner's products if you have set up any JV's
How to promote the offers
You are going to write emails from your auto responder.
If you are not yet familiar with how to write emails, then the best way to learn
is to... write more of them!
You are not going to become an expert at emails by reading books. The best
thing to do is to just do it.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
53
I remember when I first started mailing my list, I was always worried about
the following things:
What if they unsubscribe?
What if they stop opening my emails because I send too many promos?
What if my email doesn't read well?
What if?... and the list went on
Email marketing is a very broad and large topic, and you cannot master it
quickly.
The best thing to do is to just figure out what works for you.
I am no master by any means, but here is what works for me, and I have not
managed to kill my buyers list just yet:
I send out about 3-5 offers per week
I try to send 1 email per week with some valuable content, like free
traffic tutorials, or free coaching lessons
... and that's pretty much it.
How to write the emails
You will have to eventually develop your own style - your customers bought
your product because of what they saw in your product and in your
personality.
They've (maybe) read your product, and they have become used to "your
voice". So if you keep writing the emails the same way as you write your
products, you will continue to connect with your subscribers.
You can also check the emails from people who email you, and whose emails
you seem to open on a regular basis. Study what they do. What they put into
the subject lines. And how they structure their emails.
You will notice everyone does it differently... which is a good thing - because it
means there are many approaches that work.

Here are a couple of things that I personally do:
Subject Lines
Subject line is a very important part of your email. Its main job is to get the
person to open the email.
It needs to raise curiosity without giving too much away.
Compare these two subject lines:
"Make commissions with your blog by posting twice a day"
"Wait - does f_______ really matter?"
(By "f_______" I mean frequency of course...)
Which one do you feel raises more interest?
The true master of subject lines in particular and email marketing in general is
Lee Murray and in his product "Email Slick" he teaches everything he knows
about subject lines and email marketing in general.
Inside Email Slick you will also find some done-for-you email content,
including main content and subject lines which you should definitely use if
you're just starting out and don't know what to do.
If you would like to check out "Email Slick", here are your instructions:
1) At the time of writing, Lee Murray has 4 copies left at 50% off at this
link.
2) If you check out the link above, and there are no more discounted copies
left, then follow this link to go to the original offer
First Sentence
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
55
Can you see how Gmail, as well as many other email providers give you a
quick preview of the first sentence in the email?
Some people waste it by putting in something like "Monthly Newsletter
********** For Members ******* Hi Greg".
If you want to leverage the power of the first sentence, you need to grab your
readers’ attention so that the combination of the subject, plus the first
sentence really compels the person to open the email.
So continuing on with our example, let's say the subject line is
Subject: "Wait - does f_______ really matter?"
Here, your first sentence would ideally be something like this:
"When done wrong, you can ruin your business by overdoing THIS".
So that continues on with the curiosity building, and should entice the reader
to open up the email and read what it is.
Body of the email
This is where it becomes quite difficult to create rules, because so many
different things will work.
In general, your rule of thumb should be that your emails need to be a
pleasure to read (this is Lee Murray's idea, not mine, but I subscribe strongly
to it).
So make them entertaining, make them interesting, and make them valuable.
Probably one piece of advice would be not to send hard-sell emails like this:
"you HAVE to check THIS out!
Make at least $10k per month!
WOOOOWWWW!!!!
CLICK HERE"
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko

Your readers will not like that at all, and after 1-2 of those, they'll unsubscribe.
However, if you send an email, with a promotion, but it's written
informatively and genuinely, your list will respond well.
After all, they are interested in learning more about different things related to
the niche.
So if you recommend a really good product to them, they will buy it, and they
will actually be happy that you've told them about it.
Can you think of an example of a really good product that you've bought
through someone's email link? Do you feel offended by the fact that you've
been "promoted to"? Most likely not, right?
So here is something you can do - try to find that email from which you made
that purchase. And then see how that email was written. And model your
future emails off that email.
My example email
To get your creative juices flowing, I'm giving you an example of one of the
emails that I've recently sent to my buyers list.
It enjoyed some very health stats, about 24% open rate and 10% click-
through rate:
Here is the actual email:
The difference between crushing it online and NOT seeing a damn cent
is simple... TRAFFIC.
If you can consistently get 100 visitors to your offer... And it
doesn't have to be a fancy offer...
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
57
These 100 visitors can very quickly turn your life around... Sit on
the beach, chill and sip Margarita's or Budweiser (I would go for Bud,
but each to their own)
Now IMAGINE what could happen if you could get 10,178 visitors to your
site in just one day?
>> Click to watch Phil get 10,178 visitors in ONE day
You might crash your server... ;)
Or you might just put out a pretty good offer in front of those 10,171
peeps. Maybe an affiliate link...
And you would collect a very pretty paycheck.
I feel like a bit of a laggard. I'm normally pretty up to speed with
technology and things and know how to work an iPhone.
But!.. I have not really leveraged Social Media in my online business
very much. Well... Not at all, to be frank.
Until the other day I picked up Phil Steptoe's Social Media Massacre.
I can tell you right now - it sort of spun me out a bit.
He actually recorded a video, where you can watch him live, and he
drives a truck-load of visitors in like half an hour of work.
That's the power of Social Media.
>> Click here and never worry about traffic again
To Your Success,

P.S. Here are some reviews from the Warrior Forum:
By nicheemp:
"Here's my review: I bought this and I don't now Phil from Adam. This
WSO is <bleeping> awesome! This is one of those rare gems. This is why
I keep buying WSOs because sometimes you hit the jackpot."
By megamind22:
"Wow, what can I say? This is really an amazing way to get traffic
fast. I bet 90% of internet marketers do not even know about this
method yet. Its crazy.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
58
Its so easy to implement and you can see traffic coming to your site
almost in minutes. I'm loving it. I can see some potentials in this if
you have a good sales funnel in place. This would work easily for
anyone who wants to build a list. Nice one.
Good Job Phil, well done."

Are you starting to see what I'm doing here?
And see how this is different from a lot of spammy-looking short emails you
may receive?
The subject of the email is "This is it... Game Over..." and draws the reader in -
they want to see why the game is over :)
In the body of the email I actually lift the curtains a little bit and tell them
about the offer.
Yes, the email is long and those emails take 20-30 minutes to craft. Sometimes
longer, up to an hour.
But it's worth it - because you are producing quality content that is a pleasure
to read, and does not sound spammy.
Feel free to model your emails off this email here. Or if you want to just copy
the whole thing, feel free to do so. It's my gift to you.
Resource:
Lee Murray has a package of 14 done-for-you emails, which he has personally
written. I have bought this pack, and I high recommend it for those who are
not yet experts in writing emails.
You can get 14 of these emails, and if you like, you can then also subscribe to
his weekly email service, which is under $5 per week at the time of writing
(but you get full week’s worth of emails that way).
So if you are looking for some material to give you inspiration, then Check

MODULE 10: WHAT TO DO IF YOU
ARE IN A NON-IM NICHE
Many people start out in a non-IM niche. I did too - for years I was playing in
the sports, health and fitness niches with reasonable success.
If this is the case - no problem! There are lots of other niches that can make
you a lot of money if you build a buyers list. Here are examples of some of
them:
Golf
Weight loss
Hair loss
Bodybuilding
Diabetes
Skin conditions
Baby problems
... many many more
Can you still make money in non-IM niches?
Oh yeah - you absolutely can!
You follow exactly same methods...
Search for forums related to your niche. Figure out what the common
problems are. Find solutions to those problems. And write a 20-40 page
report.
Then write a sales page.
Where to sell your non-IM products?
You can set up your offer on a platform similar to WarriorPlus.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
60
Clickbank or JVZoo should work quite well, as they have products from
various niches, not just IM.
The instructions for Clickbank and JVZoo are out of scope for this report, but if
you check Google, or YouTube or the help videos on JVZoo and Clickbank, you
should be able to set it all up.
Again - if you're stuck, ask in the Facebook group, and someone should be able
to help you out!
Where to promote non-IM products?
Just to be upfront with you - I have NOT created paid products in non-IM
niches.
I have built lists using free reports in weight loss and bodybuilding niches
though. So here is how I suspect you can do this, but I have not tried this
myself.
Forums should do the trick.
You can look for a forum related to your niche. Try to find an active one, with
many people posting and replying.
Then you should check their rules. You want to find one that allows you to
post links in your signature.
Here is one that I've found:
http://www.womens-health.com/boards/weight-loss/
And here are their rules:
http://www.womens-
health.com/boards/faq.php?faq=vb3_user_profile#faq_vb3_signatures_avatar
s
Good news! They allow links in signatures.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko
61
So you would start participating and trying to REALLY help people.
When you get to know them, they will start to check out the link in your
signature and some will end up buying.

3. My Click Boss
This is the tracking / click management software that I personally use every
single day. It’s more powerful that QCC (Quality Click Control), yet is 3 times
cheaper.
My Click Boss allows you to manage your solo ad tracking / conversion rates,
as well as redirect and manage your traffic based on Geo-features.
Black Belt List Building Secrets by Greg Kononenko

For example if you want to redirect all traffic from custom countries to a
different URL, My Click Boss easily lets you do that.
You can also easily track your sales page conversions, opt-in page
conversions, etc.
Lastly, it has a very advanced rotator capability that allows you to split-test
multiple versions of a page. Or to manage your Click Banking links in a very
effective way.
