Getting email signups... now what?

Hi buddy,

you say that on the lists you've signed up for, it's just offer after offer, which presumably you don't think is ideal!

Why not concentrate on doing some really good research in your niche and offering your list members something - tips, info, whatever - for free a few times in a row.

Then survey them and ask them what it is they'd like to see more of. You can even ask them if they'd be willing to pay for a weight loss poduct (or whatever your niche is), and if so, How Much?

From those that reply, design your next mail shot, which will respond to THEIR suggestions.

Other IMers, much more experienced than me, do exacly this with great results.

Try it. Just don't go straight to the 'sell'. Also, be careful with FB ads. They can cost big time if you don't get it right, and for very little result.

Hope this helps,

Paul

Hi!

This is something you can test but I can assure you as a rule of thumb it is better to give quality away for FREE first and then subtly offer affiliate products, your own products and services etc.

There are many ways of promoting without actuallly looking like an over selling run of the mill marketer.

You can create a course that has several days worth of content and direct your subscribers from the emails to a separate page that has the FREE content on there. Either videos or written content.

You can then have subtle links on those pages that have a call to action for someone to click through to a closely related affiliate product.

This way you are allowing your subscribers to see you as someone who is providing FREE high quality information and they are far more likely to trust your affiliate recommendations or indeed if you are offering your own prodcuts and services.

Show them the possibilities first and get them excited about what is in it for them.

Hope these tips help and have a great one!

It's great to send your list the occasional offer but constantly sending them offers can damage your credibility and people will end up unsubscribing from your list.

They are on your list for a reason and instead offer high value information which is interesting and helps with their problems.

Purchase Mike Dillard's magnetic sponsoring ebook because it's a valuable resoure which will point you in the right direction.

Offer them a free giveaway product to keep them active and engaged. You can space your autoresponder series to 3-5 days.

there are many strategies and school of thoughts for follow up emails.. but do remember the first few emails conditioned your readers.. if you are going to offer content and content, your readers might just expect content only while if your promote products after products, your readers would know your style and might be irritated. The trick is to get the right balance for your list.
