How Many Freebies do you Offer to Your Subscribers?

Sean A McAlister · 09-03-2008, 09:56 AM

Hey everyone,

I am working on few things here and wondering how many
freebies you offer to your members or list.

Do you offer something once a week, monthly etc.

Are they responsive?

Or do you think that giving away to many freebies is
counterproductive.

I understand "moving the free line" but
how far do you move it?

Thanks
Sean

I do know that Rich, Strategic Profit, having some giveaway like twice a week or so. I personally only offer new freebies one or twice a month.
Its really hard to compete in "moving the freeline cocept" if you dont have enough capital to start with. Everyone know terms like sacrifising ealry profits. BUt how far one can go is really depend on how much capital they currently have.

I dont suggest this to any of you who just started in the IM, cause this could instantly killed you business if you bring this concept to deep inside your business.

Sean, it depends on the list but most of them I use the following format.

1. I give them a free report download that is usually about 20 to 30 pages
long to start with.

2. I give them a weekly newsletter with tips each week or every few days.
The lengths of the newsletters vary from 16 issues to 62 issues depending
on how much I have to share.

I've tried to move the free line as much as I can. I find it does build a lot of
trust.

Anyway, hope this helps.

I have a new product or gift to giveaway once a month. Now this can be effective if what you are giving away is not just scraps thrown together or just a poor quality gift.

Hi Sean,

It depends on your list(sensitivity) and your intentions, what do you want to achieve.

I used to send freebies once a week, If I want to use it as a bait, in a prelaunch phase.

If you have enough cash then you can give more frequently. Till now in this direction less were my money because I paid off my debts.

Hope it helps.
