Attract Coaching Clients and Build Your List With Forums

"It is all in the list", that is what many Internet marketers will tell you about what it takes to successfully build your coaching business online.
There is truth in this statement but this is one case that size alone is not all that matters.
You want to have as many people as possible on your opt-in list and you would like all of those people to be as responsive as possible.
Responsive means that they buy what you want them to buy or do what you ask them to do like go to a specific webpage.
A responsive list is one that is interested in what you have to offer.
They want to be on your list because you continue to offer products and information that they desire.
They are people that want to hear from you on a regular basis.
Forums Forums are places on the internet where people who have similar interests gather to discuss issues and subjects that are relevant to them.
People in forums are looking to have discussions with others who they can share with and learn from.
Every forum is different and they each have different rules so be sure that you follow the rules and the protocol of the particular forum that you are participating in.
You want to be helpful you want to serve the other members of the forum.
I have a little motto that says "serve others before you even think about selling others".
You can serve others by answering questions and sharing tips.
Make comments about what other people in the forum are talking about and add value to the conversation.
Nobody likes a know it all so be sure to ask others for the help and ask questions in the forum.
You will be amazed at the wealth of free help you can get when you turn to your forum for help.
Forums are not any different than blogs or article marketing because you must be consistent to get the results you desire.
When you join a forum make sure it is one that you will desire to visit on a regular basis.
You want to contribute to the forum several times a week.
One warning about forums is that some of them are not as active as others so be sure the forum you choose is one where people are actively posting and participating.
Being a regular participant will allow people to get to know like and trust you.
They will benefit from your contributions and this will allow the law of reciprocation to take effect.
