1. Day 1
Your 5 Day List
Building Action
Plan
This is your quick start action plan for growing your very own list to 1000, 5000, even
10000 or more.
Hopefully you’ve read Accelerated List Building already. If you haven’t, then do that first.
Then come back here.
This is your Action Plan to grow your very own responsive list ready to pull you in four and
five figure paydays. Refer back to the main Accelerated List Building Manual for more
details on each step.
If you follow each one of these steps, you will succeed. I’m confident of that.
Let’s go...
7 steps for creating a business exit strategy
Task 1: Create your offer
Time: 2-3 hours
Your offer can be anything of value. Traditionally it is a free digital product or a free
subscription to a content packed newsletter. The digital product could be a video, an audio
or a free PDF report. Decide which you’d like to create and then create it.
Task 2: Create your squeeze page
Time: 2-3 hours
I’ve permitted two to three hours for this activity because I’ve allowed time for you to get a
domain name and a webhost. Now you need to create your squeeze page. Your squeeze
page should look something like the one at www.acceleratednicheprofits.com
Once you’ve created it, upload it to your web space.
Also create your Confirmation and Thank you pages. See “Getting people to confirm their

2. Day 1
email address” on page 5 of the Accelerated List Building manual.
Day 2
Task 1: Develop your auto-responder sequence
Time: 2 hours
I’ve only given you two hours for this task because we don’t need to upload our entire
sequence just now. You can create two weeks’ worth of messages for now and then
continue to add more as time progresses. Create some top quality articles for your
subscribers; perhaps have one email pitching a product in the first two weeks. Upload your
emails to your autoresponder account. If you haven’t got one then I recommend you go
with Aweber. It’s the only one I’ve tried but I’m happy with it.
Task 2: Split test
Time: 1-2 hours
Get Google Website Optimizer and learn how to use it. Create an alternate version of your
squeeze page simply by changing one factor, such as the headline and set this up to
compete against your original page. It’s very easy to do, just follow the instructions in
Google Website Optimizer.

3. Day 3
Task 1: Keyword research
Time: 1 hour
Go to your favourite keyword research tool. I use http://tools.seobook.com/keyword-
tools/seobook/
Find as many long tail keywords as you possibly can related to your niche. Make a list of
them in an Excel spreadsheet. You should be able to come up with 50 or more long tail
keywords.
Task 2: Article creation
Time: 3 hours
Write five articles relevant to the topic of your squeeze page targeting one of the long tail
keywords you found per article. Make the articles unique and have them contain original,
informative content. They should be about 400 words each.
Task 3: Article submission
Time: 1 hour
Create a resource box that directs readers to your squeeze page. Submit all five of your
articles to EzineArticles.com with your resource box.
Day 4
Task 1: Blog location
Time: 2 hours
Find at least 50 blogs in your niche. Use the strategies outlined in the main manual to find
these blogs. Make a list of the 50 blogs in an Excel or Word document. Try to put the
highest traffic blogs at the top – based on your own opinion.
Task 2: Blog commenting
Time: 1 hour
Go to about ten of the blogs and make an informative, personalised comment on one of
the most recent blog posts. Include a link back to your squeeze page in the blog posts.

4. Task 3: Content contributions
Time: 1 hour
Contact at least five of the blogs and ask if they would like you to contribute some free
content for their blog in exchange for a link back. If they say yes, then create the content
for them.
Day 5
Task 1: Free report donations
Time: 1 hour
Go back to your list of 50 blogs and contact another five blogs (not the same blogs that
you contacted yesterday) and ask if they would like you to donate your free report to their
blog readers. (This technique is explained at the end of page 14 of the main manual)
Task 2: Steal subscribers
Time: 1 hour
Find at least five marketers in your niche building a list using double opt-in. Contact these
marketers using the email template I give you on page 17. If the marketer accepts your
proposal then create the special page for them.
Task 3: Yahoo answers
Time: 1 hour
Register with Yahoo Answers at www.answers.yahoo.com Use the process I outline on
pages 20-22 to answer 20 questions. Link back to your site in about ten of these answers
using a subtle, helpful link.
Continuous Processes
That’s your simple five day action plan to start building your list. I haven’t included ad
swaps and content swaps because I assume you haven’t got a sufficiently large enough
subscriber database yet. You can use these methods in the future though.
Here are things to continue to do to convert more visitors into subscribers and to expand

5. your marketing “reach”.
1. Continue to develop content to add to your auto-responder sequence.
2. Continue to test different variations of your opt-in page to convert more visitors into
subscribers.
3. Continue to test different author resource boxes to get more people to click through to
your site.
4. Continue to find additional long tail keyword terms.
5. Continue to find blogs in your niche.
6. Continue to find potential partners to swap content and ad swap with.
Here are things to continue to do on a daily basis to really explode your traffic. If you follow
this step-by-step system, you’ll have more traffic than you can handle in just a few short
weeks.
Daily Tasks
1. Write and submit three new 250-400 word articles per day to EzineArticles.com (2
hours)
2. Make valuable comments on at least five blogs per day (30 minutes)
3. Contact at least three blog owners (use a template email) per day asking if they would
accept content for their blog. Have a folder of “Premium” content that you use to contribute
to blogs. (15 minutes)
4. Contact another three blogs asking if they would link to your free report on a special
page you set up for them. Use a template email (15 minutes)
5. Contact three list owners asking if they would like to include your free report as a
bonus. Again, use an email template. (15 minutes)
6. Answer 20 questions per day on Yahoo Answers. Link back to your site on about ten
of the articles. (1 hour)
7. Try to set up two or three content swaps over the course of a month. (45 minutes)
8. Try to set up one ad swap per month. (30 minutes)
9. Make a few posts on niche specific forums every day including a link back to your
website. (30 minutes)
These daily tasks (if you stick to the estimated times) will take you only 6 hours.
Start at 9am and you’ll be done by 3pm. With a little practice you can get these times down
considerably.
It would take me only an hour to write and submit three articles now to EzineArticles.com if

6. it was a subject I knew about. I've also permitted you 15 minutes to contact blog and list
owners when in truth it will take less than 5 minutes. How hard is it to copy and paste an
email?
Here are some tasks you can do one time and continue to generate traffic for many years
to come.
1. Set up a PPC campaign. Once you’ve worked out your visitor value, set up a Google
Adwords campaign paying less than the price of your visitor value. Continually tweak your
ads.
2. Set yourself up on Twitter and Facebook and connect with people interested in the
topic of your squeeze page.
3. Find a newsworthy angle for your squeeze page and submit a press release.
4. Consider setting up some offline advertisements.
5. Optimize your site for the search engines.
6. Start building backlinks to your squeeze page.
7. Pay for advertisements in newsletters and ezines.
8. Pay for advertisements on niche specific websites.
9. Create videos and submit them to Youtube and other video sites.
10. Submit content to magazines to see if they will publish your articles.
11. Set up a Squidoo page (or a few) and link back to your opt-in page.
12. Start a blog and start creating valuable content and getting traffic from the search
engines.
This is your simple action plan so you can get going right away.
Start following the steps and you’ll be generating windfalls of targeted, high quality traffic
that produces profits for you at an alarming rate. Exit Planning from American Fortune
Good luck!
