Denise Wakeman, co-founder of The Blog Squad, a division of Krakoff Wakeman Associates, Inc., work with authors, speakers and professionals to leverage the Internet so they can Attract, Sell and Profit on the web. Her advice for building an email list fast:

"If you want to grow your email list fast, have a contest. There's nothing like a contest and giving away lots of valuable prizes to inspire action. This goes for blog subscribers as well as ezine subscribers."

As an example, Denise mentions how blogger "Big Jason" is giving away over $40,000 in prizes if you subscribe to his list. One of the prizes is a $500 AMEX gift card!
