How do i monetize 300 daily subscribers?

32 replies
I have just unlock the code to a great traffic
source which now pours 3,000 unique visitors
to my website daily. Interestingly, i now get
between 250 to 300 subscribers to my list daily.
This just started about 10days ago.

Presently, i am too joyous to think straight about
the way to monetize this subscribers. I would have
prefer CPA offers but, being from Africa, it's always
near impossible to get accepted to CPA networks.

I have 3 personal WSOs in here and i am thinking
of promoting these WSOs to the list. At the same
time, CLICKBANK keeps ringing in my head.

I must say, i am quite confused. And i will need advice
from humble warriors.

I want everything automated since i am sure that very
soon, i will be getting as much as 500 subscribers daily.
I am thinking of setting up follow up emails of about
20messages.

What do you think? Least i forget, the list is on money making.
I will appreciate your candid advice.
Thanks

      Definitely good advice. You dont want to send out to many emails-and make sure that your title isnt spammy at all. You need to have an interesting title to your emails but people will immediately call it trash if it looks like trash. Think about it, would you read the email you're sending out or would you submit it to trash?

        What do you mean by SPAMMY TITLE?
        I have often noticed people use m0ney instead
        of money in titles of emails and some other
        styles. Is it to avoid the title looking spammy?

        Are there some words that triggers a tittle
        as spam? Please shed more light on this.

        Thanks.

      Thanks serprider.
      How often would you advice that the mails go
      out. every two, three or four days?

      How many content emails should go out before
      the affiliate/product email?

          Where are you getting your advice from?


          Sometimes if the email is important, I just resend them another email on day two reminding them to grab the free content.
          .
          Aren't all your emails important?


          Just test out the days. You don't want to bang your subscribers mailbox every 24 hours because some might feel it's annoying. Just take it slowly, and offer high quality content. Get them to talk about it. Make some videos, etc.
          .
          Let's see if I got this correct... offering 8 content emails to 1 advertising email that are all mediocre important every 3 - 5 days. When you factor in delivery rates and when the subscriber will open the email it might just seem like they are getting email every 24 hours from you.

          I'm speechless... :confused:

              @Mike - I mean like if I'm offering a free report, I just send them a small email reminding to grab their copy before I take down the link.

              Once again, this is my personal ratio I try to follow. It may vary based on niche/type of list, but this is a great ball park number someone new to email marketing should follow.

              I don't know why I'm being flamed for advice that is working for me. Just my 2 cents.
              That's fine and all if it's working for you but have you tested other things like:
              1. no content just pitch
              2. content and pitch in the same email
              3. leading content to get click onto your website
              Change it up, be different and it could surprise you...


              For everyone else looking for advice about email marketing, DO NOT wait on the sidelines thinking "I don't want to screw this up" and end up doing nothing.


              If you truly want the answer, segment your list into 3 and test different variations. When you find something that works well put that email message in your autoresponder and automate every email that works.


              You should go into this with an open mind. Be creative and don't worry about the old "8 content, 1 promotion crap"...



              PS. You're not being flamed, trust me you'd know it.

                  Thanks, Mike.

                  PS: I get a bit defensive sometimes....ok...most of the time. haha

                  No worries... me too... LOL

                  Trust is important but it doesn't take a long time to build trust. What takes time is the level of trust you build and that comes with good content both paid and free.

                  So many people have the mindset of "Trust" = once I get there, end game.

                  Not true by a long shot and a huge misconception is when people say "Give free content to build trust before you send them an offer" are missing the boat BIG TIME.

      At 300 subscribers a day, why would the poster want to limit themselves to only making money 1/8 of the time? Have you tried (tested) any other ratios? Just because on ratio works for you doesn't mean it is the go to for everyone or even anyone else.

      With the right content and approach the poster could be making money from two emails a day. With the amount coming in .. they can afford to test and see what their best ratio is.

        If i may ask, what are the right content
        and approach?

        Two emails per day? Okay. But, how about the
        frequency of the days? Daily, 2days, 3days???

        Thanks for your time.

          I in no way suggest two emails a day. That is something you must test for yourself. Same goes for frequency.

          For me .. I always have a buy link in my signature. We never know exactly when everyone on our list is ready to buy.

          Some of my niches get two emails a week .. some get one email every day. If I am running a sale I might send the initial sales email and a reminder. If I were doing a webinar I might remind those that sign up 3 or 4 times in 48 hours.

          What I do that works well could easily destroy your list. There is no one size fits all in email marketing or marketing in general. I suggest starting out at one email a day and tweaking from there .. you got to start somewhere :-)

          What happens if your member is ready to buy on day two?

    I would advise you to do what I did. You can either get consulting information from an agency I am working with, or they can do the mailing for you. This means you don't have to worry about being approved since they will handle it all for you. So far I have learned a lot from them, and am monetizing my sites way better than I would have on my own. Now I can focus on getting more traffic myself. Let me know if you're interested I can give you the contact info.

    wich is that great traffic source you talk about? please submit link I'm looking for new ideas to get traffic!

      Great! I thought as much.
      If i convert @ just 4%, that'll
      be 12 sales daily from 300 subs.

      With a product of between $9 to $15,
      that will be $120 - $180 daily.

      Wow! i love this.

        Time to be realistic here, cause someone needs to do it.

        Some good info in here, and some terrible as well.

        Why not test, your list is the no 1) asset to your business. If you are getting 300 subscribers daily and they are targeted, then damn, that is awesome.

        What you need to do is test, to work out your content to sales, and affiliate plugs to offers.

        Do not, I repeat do not bombard them with offers, thinking you will hit the jackpot. Treat them like gold and you will get gold back in return, like i just said, work hard and know they are your no 1 asset. And treat them that way.

    I would also recommend sending out an email promoting your product every week or two. Don't overdue it though, and kill your list with overwhelming offers.

    A good ratio should be: 8 content emails: 1 affiliate/product email.

    Content emails should only be informative. So when you send out your affiliate email, your conversions will be explode.

    You don't want to send out more than one email a week and make sure that your title is appropriate. Use Mailchimp to manage your email marketing campaign and adjust your approach based on analytics provided for you.

      A big load of soupy crap.

      One email week or an 8:1 ratio seems to be the parrot script of the week. No one can tell someone else what their profit mailing ratio can be. Testing is the only answer to the question.

      Mail chimp does not tolerate internet marketers whatsoever!

      Instead of filling someone with crap to get your skype out there .. just put it in your sig file and tell them great post .. you are not doing near the damage.

      WRONG in my opinion... First 300 a day is not too small. As long as there is ONE subscriber on your list you need to do all the things I described earlier.

      Nothing wrong with sending a pitch email or any kind of email for that matter even if you only have a handful of subscribers. Sure grow your list, absolutely, but you should always be growing your list no matter how many subscribers.

      My point is you should always be marketing... Your a marketer aren't you. There is no magic number so why wait?

      I'm NOT saying send pitch after pitch after pitch and burn your list. What I am saying is become a strategic marketer and that doesn't require a certain number of subscribers.

    Market, market, market, that is my candid advice. Do you have something to market? Then do so. You can use the service of other people to get accepted to CPA network. There are some freelancer sites offering such service and they do not fail to deliver.

    Can i get someone with CPA account here to make money together with cpa?
    I have difficulties getting accepted on cpa networks.

    If you are interested, all i need is a ZIP SUBMIT or EMAIL SUBMIT
    of IPAD or LAPTOP or any giveaway product.

    I will promote it to my list. The profit sharing ratio will be 70/30. Mine is 70%.
    You must be ready to be transparent and show me screen shots of money made
    each day.

    If i find i trustworthy person, i will automate the offer in my autoresponder follow up
    messages. This will ensure we get at least 250 daily to the offer.

    But right now, i will test with the broadcast to my list.

    If you are interested, send detailed info to me in form of PM.
    Thanks.

    I haven't read through this whole post...So not sure if this has been mentioned.

    But I'd load your own product's sales emails in to your AR, so that way ALL new subscribers will get a measured dose of sales from you after they sign up.

    Start with a welcome email and intersperse them with helpful tips etc.

    Maybe at an interval rate of from signup day: +1, +2, +3, +3, +3 etc
    Depending on your AR you can also test excluding certain days etc.

    From what I gather you will find subscribers will buy the most in the first 2 or 3 weeks, so make sure they get your offers in that time frame

    Nice work and good luck!

    p.s. I know of a fantastic site opening soon that will give you access to whole host of CPA offers including mobile AND traffic. It's a completely new concept, I will mention more soon as I'm Beta testing it starting in the next day or so
