Doing business the traditional way or online would not be complete without clients or customers. Whether you抮e selling a product or service, you will always have to attract people to what you抮e offering and encourage them to take action. Generating more clients is a priority for any business and should be done consistently.

There are easy ways you can build your list of regular customers or opt-in list online. You can start with one and then as you get positive feedback, you can try the other methods.

1. Offer a free newsletter. This newsletter method is very effective in building your list especially if it contains valuable information that people can use in their daily lives as well as engaging graphics and images. Sharing tips and strategies as well as interesting topics will make your newsletter attractive to people.

This is one great bonus you can give to your loyal subscribers and a good way to attract more subscribers. You can also offer this as a giveaway for any special event of your friends who have their own websites.

6. Launch an event. If you have the resources, you can organize even just a small event to gather like-minded people. As you promote this event on your site and other websites, you are sure to spark the curiosity of other people and get them to register.

7. Join forums. By taking part in discussion boards or forums, you can establish relationships with other members and eventually build your list.

8. Offer useful products. Make sure that what you offer to people is something useful in their lives. People nowadays want to get their money抯 worth.

9. Join social media sites. Create an account in Facebook, Twitter and YouTube and follow people to build your list.

10. Establish friendship with subscribers. If you make friends with your own list, you can get them to spread the word with their own list.
