E-Mail Marketing and Lead Generation Page Help

8 replies
I'm looking for the top strategies people use for e-mail marketing, and more importantly at least at the moment, how people either make their lead-gen/opt-in/squeeze pages, or where they get them made for them affordably.

If you can redirect me to a more appropriate subdivision of the forums, I'd appreciate that, I'm not sure which category these things fall into.

Thanks.

    Hy there,

    I personally use OptimizePress for my squeeze pages - it is a drag and drop software and you can create even membership websites, sales pages and etc. It is one time payment - $97 I think. I really recommend it!

    I am also giving my complete sales funnel away for free. You can get more info here: http://togethermembership.com/grab-y...-platform-2-0/

    You can also outsource your squeeze page to Fiverr.com. That way you will get a complete unique Landing page for 5 or 10 bucks

    If you have any other questions feel free to ask me

    I use Instabuilder for squeeze & landing pages - there is probably a WSO for it. Optimizepress is another I see a lot of people talk about here on WF.

    I personally use OptimizePress (*Paid WP Theme $97) to generate my squeeze pages. The ease of designing various sales pages and squeeze page makes it well worth the investment in my opinion..

    For my email campaigns, I am currently using AWeber to generate the web form code (*which then gets installed within my squeeze pages) and to manage my lists, emails, and multiple campaigns. -AWeber is $1 for trial (*30 days) Then $19 per month thereafter.

      Thanks a lot everyone. I was looking at OptimizePress. It's got an intimidating price tag but it does look pretty useful, I may give in. I'll take a peak at the other suggestions before buying though. I'm worried about quality with fiverr. Can anyone vouch for their results?

      Also, I obviously know I want to do e-mail marketing, but the process of getting them in the first place will become very important once I get all of this set up and made. Do you guys have any suggestions for the best ways to do this? Paid traffic or lists? Social media? Blog?

      Thanks again.

        One of the easiest methods is to offer your subscribers something 'of value' and of course, 'relative' to the niche you are in. In my experience, the more enticing the 'offer' (*be it a free report, ebook, newsletter, or free access to a product, etc...) the better the long term results.

        Ultimately, you want your visitors to see you as an authority... basically, as a person who can aide them in solving their problem or in the least assisting them in obtaining the information they are seeking.

        What you don't want is for them to think; you are just 'pushing sales' or attempting to 'extract money from them'. Give them value first, and build a silent trust that you are knowledgeable (*in your niche) and in guiding them to that in which they seek.

          That's certainly helpful, but it's more of a note on the psychology of potential customers than a solid method of actually getting into a position where I can offer that help in the first place.

          From what you're saying though, I feel as though a more dedicated site is the best means to reach an audience looking for information and build trust without seeming too front-loaded on grabbing their hard earned dollars. Unfortunately, it's probably the most difficult to set up well.

          I still have a ways to go, but hopefully I'll have at least a couple of offers up by the end of the day in a place or two. Somewhere, somehow. Haha. I have a few more hours to work on this so I think I can get it done. Wish me luck.

            Indeed, my answer did rest on understanding the psychology of your potential customers, as email marketing demands as such.

            As far as the methods you use, it's really all the same. Whether you use paid marketing, social platforms, blogging, the end goal remains the same... getting them interested and opted into your list.

            Yes... having your own website (*or niche blog) is 'in my opinion' one of the best means to harness your traffic, gain subscribers, and build long-term profitable relationships with your list.

            I mean you could attempt to drive paid traffic to a stand alone 'squeeze page' - and after they opt-in redirect new subscribers to the product your promoting... and "HOPE" the sales page does it's job! - *But you can do this without building a list.

            My concern with sending paid traffic to a squeeze page is that you really do not have a relationship established with those who opted in. They buy what your promoting, GREAT!

            But chances are, even if they do buy a product, you have '0' relationship with them. So, if you start sending them other offers via email... they'll be like; "Who the F..K is this guy who keeps sending me this crap?" - BOOM, they hit the SPAM button, and eventually your auto responder account gets shut down.

            Another words, with a website you have total control to change your methods with little investment, less your time. With paid methods, it's a gamble and cost money.

            Either way, they will both cost you time or money... depending on your preference. I suggest building a site, long term relationships, and deliver quality products and information.

            It takes time, email marketing is both a science and an art in getting people to buy.

            Good Luck!
