Aside from having a good product persistence is the name of the game.

It's Ok to have a small growing list.
From a humble acorn does the mighty oak grow.

Ask an advertizer to coop with you.
ie exchange a service they offer for your publishing their ad.
You both win
Or jsut get their permission to publish their ad.
Their credibility should help your cause even if at first you do it for
free.

List building requires steady hard work, no matter who you are.

Coca Cola is one of the most well known brand names in the world.
They also have one of the largest advertizing budgets in the world.

Keep at it. Experiment

Ask subscribers for referrals.

promote promote promote

Forget the claims of otehrs. Does it really matter ?
Only you and your ezine matter, believe me.
You cannot bank the claims of others.
It's irrelevant and . . . Who cares !

Thanks !

This is for the daily publishers...

How many of you (who are actually publishing daily) are doing this full
time?  How many have a real job as well? (I mean, how many leave the house
and go to work like normal people?)

There isn't enough time in the day for one person to do everything that must
be done, and still spend time writing, promoting, and schmoozing for the
zine.  So... how does everyone else do it?

I have a day job, and I'm finding it increasingly difficult to ward off the
frustration from seeing that some people seem to magically invent thousands
of new subscribers each month, while others (like me) aren't doing that
well, and will probably never be able to make it large enough to attract
advertisers so that I can do Two Scoops full time. .... or is this a common
frustration overcome with patience and waiting until momentum hits?

How does anyone with a real job find time for daily publishing?
