    You also had another element playing here: scarcity.

    The fact that the product was proven good and out of the market probably had an effect.

      That particular list came from some give away events, newsletters and free reports. Several sources. All in all, a few weeks perhaps.

      Yup. :-) Like I said, that's probably why the initial emails worked so well.

    But is it really 3 days?

    There seems to be hidden weeks or months of work involved. (Which is fine)

    But the "3 days" part is somewhat misleading.

      Dude, all you need to do is pick an offer and write 3 emails.

      I think it can be said, without a doubt that I did it in 3 days. Kicked it off on a Thursday, and by Sunday evening it was well "said and done".

      Hell, I probably could had done it faster since I already had the lists.

      Ahhhh I said "I already had the lists..., " and I believe this is what you're referring to. Perhaps even stuck on.

      If you don't have a LIST then yeah, obviously it will take longer than 3 days to implement this because you need to get a LIST.

      If you don't have the list, don't worry about "how long" this will take. Just do it anyway - starting with building a list because hey, you should be doing that every day anyway.

      I sometimes have coaching members (usually newbies) get hung up on "how long it takes to XYZ..." and that mindset is destructive in that it prevents ACTION.

      So do what you have to do to make a campaign happen, regardless of how long it may take you given your individual circumstances.

      Because when you do this.... It will take 3 days and WORKS.

      And, if you already have a list, take 3 days and do this because it Works.

      Nothing secret or misleading here.

    Great job. Profiting $255 for only a few hours work is definitely a great achievement. And now you will be able to market to those people again and again. Great job and hopefully many newbies and can learn from this post and implement some of the advice.

    Great job. It's a great example of how to revitalize an almost dead list of freebie seekers.

      Now you also know you have 744 zombies on your list.

      Definitely shameful, deceitful and misleading about the 3 days part. After all, it took a lot of time to first learn how to speak, get potty trained, walk, and read, then all the years at school, then being a marketer for a few years, learning how to type and use a computer - plus the experience in learning to see an opportunity and taking quick action instead of....

      trolling for criticism about how long it took to build a list, where the list came from, how long they have been on it, the time of day you sent a message, yadda yadda - while completely missing your great lessons about taking action, obtaining a unique offer, establish credibility via thousands of prior sales, taking a multi-step marketing approach instead of simply including a buy link in the email, using legitimate scarcity, segmenting your list, following up, and keeping track of actual stats so you know exactly what happened.

      Nice work.

      .

    It seems like people are attracted by the idea of scarcity
