Are JV Giveaways A Good Method To Create Your List Fast?

A JV giveaway event is a website created by online marketers who agree to utilize their lists to help build the email lists of all the members included. By taking part in such an event each and every participant has the potential to grow their own list by taking advantage of the joined power of every the other list builders who are taking part.

The way it works is each and every member of the JV giveaway register one or more free products along with their squeeze pages that they will utilize to gather new leads. They then agree to email their mailing list on launch day promoting the event and all the free products contributed by other participants.

Are JV giveaway events really a good way to build a list quickly? The answer to this question is: it depends on the situation. If you are running your own JV giveaway event than it certainly is.
Even if you are unpracticed and the event is not so well run, you will develop your mailing list by 100's if not 1000's of subscribers. Good events may add to your list many 1000's of new subscribers but you will have to really be good at it and have a name that attracts people. You will benefit greatly if you could find yourself a seasoned partner to conduct the event together.If you are registering with someone else to giveaway as a contributor than you will build your mailing list.

Will it be a huge growth? Again - it depends on the situation. If this is a well established event (running at the same time of the year for several years) and if you do great work with your contribution (more on that later) then you can see 100's of new subscribers on your list. However, many of the JV giveaway events I've seen are either conducted by unacquainted people or are conducted by "professional" event creators on behalf of others. As luck would have it, most of those are not so well run and the results for contributors are not as good as one could hope for.

Conclusion

JV giveaways are one way of building your opt-in list. Use them well and you will benefit.

Use other ways to build your list as well; don't rely on JV giveaway events alone.
