Some yahoo groups have 50,000 plus members to them? This is like having your own group. But you have to follow a code of conduct:

So here is what you do!

1.Go to yahoo.com and set up an account.

2.Find all the groups that are relevant to your customer base.

3.Find large groups i.e. over 1000 subscribers to that group.

4.Start posting tips and ideas to these groups. Every time you post a tip, it gets sent out to the whole group. Pretty groovy, huh?! So for example, if you are selling skin care, go to a group that is talking about wrinkles and tell them to use Vitamin A on their wrinkles and why. Develop the relationship...it is all about relationship marketing.

5.Make sure that you find out what the common problems are in that group. Write a quick report/newsletter.

6.After you have developed the relationship...send out your email to the group about your free report or free newsletter to their common problems...have this sent to your webpage with your optin html code on it....you now have a ton of free leads.
This is so easy and you will see it work like magic. Just be real and don't spam people. People want good advice. Remember, what comes around goes around.

You might even want to offer to tell their story in your newsletter. For example, if they try your tips and they work for them, have them send you their story and you will feature them in your next newsletter. People love attention. They will send your newsletter out to everyone they know and pretty soon it becomes viral.

I would agree, if your going to post quality information that the members can benefit from then it will work for you. If on the other hand your just sending out publicity information it will not work.
People love benefits that they can use.

Willie-

What groups are similar to those that were mention....but are more Quality?
I like the idea of discussing business development ideas but I do not want to waste my time with all ads basically...But at the same time I want my other 'human' contacts in the discussion forums to be more than just Q&A's sites.... any suggestions?
