The “$30k in 30 days” funnel
You might have come across it before, or you’ve forgotten about it. There’s a set of guru videos called “How To Make $30K In 30 Days” and resellers are offering it for a very, very low price like $9.95 or perhaps the more fashionable $7.
Google for “The $30K In 30 Days Marketing Mastery Blueprint”.
If you choose not to purchase, that’s fine. We want to highlight a flowchart that is a part of the sales page that promotes the videos. Study the flowchart because it’s worth it. People can create an e-book out of it to sell.
We reproduce the flowchart below.
Focus on it. Internalize it. Let it gestate in your being.
Really, this is all you need to know for building a list, direct-response selling (e-mail marketing) and earning from clicks like AdSense.
AdSense?
This has been a secret, until a couple of threads in the Warrior Forum let the cat out of the bag. Most people advocate AdSense-filled web pages. The REAL problem is when people click on ads, they effectively click away.
The TRUTH is you can still retain this traffic.
The SECRET is in squeezing the power of your autoresponder to the max.
The METHOD is in automating a series of messages for a year, or 2, even 3 and more…
As you can study from the flowchart, “e-mail follow up until they buy or die.”
Write simple e-mail messages that lead your subscribers to click to a web page with AdSense in the top fold.
That’s all there is to it. Just remember the articles must at least have some value so subscribers can stick around long enough to learn more of your subject/niche.
Rinse and repeat for more sites…
Now, if you think it is too difficult to remodel your existing AdSense sites into the opt-in type, YOU do have a very easy yet incredible solution to insert an opt-in page AND not necessarily as the index page…
Typically:
1) The squeeze page is the index page, i.e. the very first page a visitor would see.
2) Barring other forms of advertising that rely on backlinks, article pages are completely dependent on search engines for visitors, provided they are indexed.
At times you’d wish visitors who came by your index page know you have an article section somewhere inside your site so they can check out good content; at other times you wish they could immediately opt-in so you can ‘keep’ them as subscribers. But if new subscribers never know what good content you have been dishing out without word-of-mouth support, they are more likely to opt out at the very first instance when they don’t find your next mail enticing.
One solution is to tell your subscribers you have an article section and lead them there in your first auto-message, but the Easy List Builder really turns the squeeze page concept on its head.
With ELB incorporated with your classic AdSense site, what happens is visitors drop by and see your articles as usual. Then according to a number you specify in the settings, the opt-in page will appear fully after the visitor click on a number of articles in no particular order. Your visitor will be forced to opt in with your choice of free gifts. Not only that, chances are s/he is already warmed up to the value you give through your articles, so s/he’s more likely to hear from you soon.
Isn’t that powerful? You get the best of both worlds: AdSense clicks and subscribers!

Coincidentally, John Reese prophesied the next 2 major changes in IM are the “reverse squeeze” concept (which is what ELB aims to achieve) and the 2-page video sales page in his latest giveaway report “The Rebirth Of Internet Marketing“.
