Before I begin, I would like to let you know that there is a difference between building an email list and building a responsive email list.

Building an email list is relatively easy – All you need to do is to offer an attractive “bait” (it could be a short report, a short audio, or video where you share a tip or two in the niche you are in) in your opt-in page (or sometimes also known as a landing page) that entices your prospects to want to sign up (filing up his/her first name and email address) immediately.
