Best converting email offers HELP

1 replies
First of all,


I am a financial affiliate, meaning I promote brokerage firms or high yield investment programs and automative software to trade financial markets.


My visitors can, most of the time, sign up for a free demo account or deposit money and sign up for a real account. When someone makes a deposit and I get +1 sale that obviously makes more money than just a demo sign up or lead.


Now, on my website I focus mainly on giving the visitors a small free something, like a tester to try the product they are interested at out for free.


On my website homepage visitors see the top 5 free deals above the fold and the top 5 non-free deposit-required deals under the fold, hence they have to scroll.


I have to admit, my website is focused on Dutch visitors and as the Dutch are known to have deep pockets but short hands, I figured out this strategy has to work:


Next to the free 5 offers on my website, there is a big newsletter signup button and widget to capture visitors who are mainly interested in these free deals.


Most of the times when I see +1 newsletter member, that person also became lead or signed up for a free demo account at atleast 1 product I have on (free) offer.


So going on from here, I can assume people in my email database are generally hoping to receive more free samples or gifts within their email inbox.


What I do now - to maximize earnings, is sending all the email membership people again free sample offers but where I earn a lot already for a lead and not that much for a sale. The people that engage with the free sample offer get filtered and get another free offer next week until infinity, this nets around $30 per offer per lead. The ones that do not engage with the offer I send random offers also including deposit-required offers (sales make $300-$750).


I have the feeling I could mix these CPA, CPL and hybrid deals around a bit more to make way more out of my email database or maybe add a program like Optimove retention to it? Any email marketing savy entrepreneur who can teach me to get the most out of my email leads? Any tips would be appreciated very much, as I got $300-$750 CPA deals, it must sound silly to farm all these easy $30 CPLs instead of focusing on conversion of CPAs.

    Hey Wolf,

    Just for your question sake, I am going to go back to the basics of internet marketing in general.

    My opinion on this, is I would say take a step back.. You need to remember that your visitors must see you as leader among your industry (which looks like some of them are)

    I would say make just a squeeze page of 1 free super high quality offer that leaves them going "I NEED MORE!!!" once you do that, you have them hooked.

    Drive traffic to that squeeze page through forum marketing & solo ads (my 2 personal favorites )

    Provide valuable advice and relate to your visitors in your autoresponder by asking what they are struggling with and sharing your experience you had when you were trying to learn everything.

    Don't try to sell them anything through those emails just provide high quality value and demos that they usually don't get from other people in your niche.

    Build up your email list and make sure they are engaged and active. Once you have a sizable list that opens up and reads your emails (maybe clicks on links too)....

    Create a social media page! Turn that list into a community!

    Now focus on building your list through your squeeze page and your social media page.

    Once you've built both of these an active strong and healthy community (you'll know when people start chatting on your community page without you being there)

    Go ahead an launch your basic website and promote it to them! This should be the first thing you promote to them.

    That'll drive a lot of traffic and not only that, but you'll have a live community living under your umbrella!

    Try that out, see how it works... It's a lot of work pumping out high quality engaging emails, but if done right the payoff can be HUGE!!

    Hope this helps

    Adam
