I love people who unsubscribe & so should you

9 replies
Hi fellow warriors

People here often get a bead on about their unsubscribe rates. Unless an email causes a massive unsubscribe rate on my list then I actually won't investigate further.

Why? Because it's a bit like natural selection. People will either Like what you are saying in your emails and metophorically want to jump in bed with you and your products. On the flip side they won't. Hey ho, Better them off my list for both parties in the long term as we will never do business.

Best regards

Luke

    This must mean something different in the UK than it does here in the US. Over here, to "get a bead on something" means that you're putting it in the sites or crosshairs of your gun so that you can shoot it.

    Can you explain your post a little more?

      Yeah thats how it is. You probably do it your self - unsubscribe if you're not satisfied with the content you're being mailed!

      • Yup, I agree.

        I happily erase my unsubscribers, feels like I'm cleaning up my list.

    Yeah, it doesn't bother me that much either. If all they want is free stuff anyway then might as well not be on my list.

    That's why I try to identify the buyers even by selling them something for $1 just to get them off the freebie list and onto the buyers list.

    It's a fact of life... People come and people go. You just have to understand that it's part of the business... Why? The door always swings both ways! It opens and it closes! LOL! CK

    Yup, those are not good for your business anyways.

    You get 80% revenue from 20% of your costumers.
