The Ask Methodology:
Compiling Your Initial Feedback

"The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don't define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them."
-Denis Watley

You've found your niche, built your squeeze page, set up your first email, and have driven at least some traffic to your page.
Hopefully by this point you have between 50 and 100 people on your list. If you don't, then go back and take the lessons on
traffic generation and then apply more of the principles.
Once you have a small list of prospects built up you should also have a small list of questions. 20 or 30 should be enough to
get the results you need.
Now it's time to give them exactly what they want
Instead of guessing at what your prospects want to buy, you are simply asking them and then delivering that to them.
Let's look at how you do this now...
3 Easy Steps To Delivering Exactly What THEY Want
1. Compile the questions that you have received.
You will hopefully find a common theme amongst many of the questions. If not, you will need to keep getting more questions
before you proceed.
For example, when I asked the question "What is your single most important question about making money with affiliate marketing?"
I received these results:
1. How do I get traffic to my site without spending a ton of money?
2. How do I get started from scratch?
3. How do I stay motivated when things aren't going as I would like?
4. How do I make more money from my existing list?
There were more results, but those were the top four questions.
2. Understand what your list really wants.
Once you have compiled the list of questions take a good, long look at what they are. Try to enter the mind of your prospects.
Remember, you are probably at a different point than they are. If you are teaching about gardening you might already be an
expert at certain things that they keep asking. You might be tempted to say "Well that's a stupid question, the answer is obvious!"
Resist that temptation as it will surely cost you a lot of profits.
Once you realize who you are really dealing with you will be better prepared to help them.
3. Start answering their questions through emails, articles, video, and by promoting products to fill their needs.
This is where the fun begins. Show them that you really care about their concerns by answering their questions. Add their
questions to your auto-responder series with the answers that you create.
Find products and services that deal with THEIR problems and promote them to your list. (We will go over this more in a future
lesson)
You will be surprised at the great results that you receive by simply answering the questions that you were given. Your list
will trust you more, they will like your more, and they will buy from you more.
