The SECRET GOLD MINE Hidden In FFA Link Submissions!

Some people just do not get it.
They go to all the trouble of submitting their links to a FREE For All (FFA) Link site, be it an individual web site or more than likely, a member of a huge network of 1000's of FFA Link sites.
But then they miss it completely by avoiding the massive amounts of email the result from such submissions.
Some people enter in false email addresses that clog up everyone's email including the ISP's that have to send out those, "User Unknown" messages.
Worse still, even if by accident, or if on purpose, they enter in an email address that turns out to belong to someone else.
Doing this does bring you the limited benefit of having other web sites link to your web site but you would miss out completely by NOT getting visitors.
And if you do it on purpose, there are now legal ramifications for entering in false info that then causes someone else damage due to the misuse of resources.
The absolutely outrageous truth about FFA Link submissions is that there is a "SECRET GOLD MINE Hidden In FFA Link Submissions!".
The SECRET?
It is the email responses!
Many people consider those confirmation emails as junk email and or spam. But that is totally WRONG!
Why?
Because those emails come from people that PAID for the privilege to send you those confirmation emails, Spam-Free.
That means that every single email confirmation that you receive comes from a QUALIFIED BUYER, someone that has already proven their worth because they SPENT hard earned MONEY to buy a business service online.
That QUALIFIED BUYER is a PREMIUM FFA member.
And, NO, it is NOT enough to send an auto-response message to those confirmation emails.
But that is a great first step.
You make your FFA Link submission. The PREMIUM FFA Member sends you one confirmation email.
You are now legally entitled to respond - ONCE, with your own Auto-Responder message.
Make the SUBJECT - TITLE a good one because most people ONLY scan the headlines and delete what is of no interest.
You can use any of several good Auto-Responder services that are available for FREE online.
We offer a List of FREE Auto-Responder Services:
via Auto-Responder at: mailto:freeautoresp@emailexchange.org
But what about all of those confirmation emails?
Some of the Auto-Responder services forward all your responses to you for review of any that might have special questions, requests, etc.
That still leaves you with the problem of having to go through all of that email via your main email address.
Solution?
A FREE Email Provider that ALSO has a FREE Auto-Responder!
That way all responses go to your extra e-mailbox and your message AUTOMATICALLY gets sent to everyone responding to your FFA link submission.
For a List of FREE Email Providers via Auto-Responder:
mailto:free_email@emailexchange.org
Don't forget to access that FREE Email account and manage your email otherwise your incoming messages will bounce because of a "Full Mailbox".
In order to really TAP INTO THIS SECRET GOLD MINE, you must take a minute or two and actually reply to those email messages or visit the web site they feature.
By doing so, you open a legal, Spam-Free dialogue with QUALIFIED ONLINE BUYERS of INTERNET BUSINESS SERVICES.
Once you open a line of communication with these PREMIUM FFA members, then you can legally email them from time to time about something you are featuring.
Using this technique, I have amassed a list of over 700 PREMIUM, QUALIFIED BUYERS.
And, we receive a steady flow of visitors to our web site and new subscribers to our newsletter.
It has more than paid for itself generating new streams of cash flow and new customers for our services with the only investment necessary on our part being the time and effort to compile the list.
Keep the lines of communication open with this small, select group of people and you will always have ready access to one of the best LISTS of potential BUYERS for your products or services.
