List building is a method in which interested prospects subscribe to your email list. They do this from reading your web site and leaving their contact information. These prospects that you have generated from your own efforts are much more qualified leads for your business than ones you might purchase. The reason for this is that many times when you contact leads obtained from someone else they don't even remember requesting information. A lot of them aren't really serious about building a business and are a waste of your time and money. However, leads you generate from your own list building have chosen specifically to subscribe to your emails. You made them an offer they found interesting enough that they wanted more information from you.

Remember that if they can do it you can as well. Some of these steps could be done by someone else if you are willing to pay for it.
