This is the question:

Which were the three best ideas led you to make more money with your list?

Of course, I want to deliver before I want to get something, so here it is:

1) Build a great relationship via free content
2) Improve signup rate by testing
3) working on the subject lines in my autoresponder

Now it's your turn.

I would add to your list finding products that met the needs or wants of the people on your list. If you have a list with mostly college students then look for products that would appeal to them, ie "Scholarship/Grant guides" or "pizza coupons" or "term paper writing for dummies".
The more you know about the people on your list, the easier this will be.

Free content should be quality content. Nobody needs junk.

I agree subject lines are important. I am jaded, it takes a good subject to get me to open the email.

I would add that using an autoresponder is a great way to build a relationship. Include a multi part guide to something that gets delivered over several days or weeks (make sure you tell them they will be getting the guide when they sign up. Don't want to make anyone angry). This will intoduce you to them and keep you in their memory.

So often I will sign up for something but not remember 2 hours later. The repeat exposure with good information will make you a friend to them.

Go test out a lot of products that fit in the niche, and when you find one you love, tell them about it, and they will "feel" your excitemnt for it.

To get the to read your emails, you just have to use "eye stopping" phrases. Thing that really touch on "hot spots" Like for the IM crowd, things like:

This might be a bit off topic but I thought I would toss it out there.

If you use Aweber you can syndicate your blog posts to your newsletter subscribers. This way, each time you post to the blog it creates a new message for you in Aweber. This is important for automation, the less time you spend dealing with your daily chores the easy it is to manage multiple streams of income.
