    Ok marketing friends...I need some knowledge (lol)!

    I write articles about the power of print advertising and other articles such as helpful "How Tos" about print advertising.

    My question is this: How do I use these articles do generate an email list and leads? Any and all ideas will be welcomed, especially if you may be able to use the articles yourself.


    thanks all!

    Simple. Write up a squeeze page offering access to your articles after trading you their email for your list. You can do this with a free auto responder or if you have a cpanel with fantastico you can use phplist.

    Also Submit one or two of them to article enzine submission sites, with links in the signature to your squeeze page.

    sounds great and all but how do you block content from someone until AFTER they have signed your form?

    Send them a link to the article in the first email that you put in your
    autoresponder.
