Email Marketing- How to Start

9 years ago

IMO get more emails before starting to blast. As far as content, the best way to get some ideas IMO is to join some lists and watch the emails you get (get ideas don't copy)

Thanks

I would like to recommend you to use the mailchimp as its free and easy to use, its allow to send e-mail to the subscriber, you can simply create good newsletter and send mails to subscribers but make sure that you are sending mails to subscribers only as mailchimp is strict about spamming

Thanks

If you have more money, try to buy autoresponder series. It will make you easy to manage your autoresponder series and don't forget to use good autoresponder.

You should always start e-mailing your list right off the bat, but sounds like you are just starting off with this list so no worries. I like to have follow up emails being sent out every 3-4 days typically. Also I like to do weekly broadcasts.

Your niche might be hard to pitch offers/products to, what are you offering them on your site?

Thanks

Well the issue is I'm unsure of what to include in the autoresponder.

The issue is I'm unsure of what type of content to put in the newsletter or in an auto responder. I thought about including updates to the show but I can't set up the autoresponder for that. My demo is mostly older women, so I figured maybe trying out weightloss/fitness offers or as seen on tv offers but since my site is based around the TV show I'm not sure how I could smoothly segway to these types of offers, or any offers really, without it coming off as spam, out of place or random. Currently, I'm not offering anything.

Thanks

yeah, I agree. I would consider using the exact same tactics you used to the build this site/list to build another in a niche that you know is easier to monetize, and you more confident about the leads. For example a yoga site, would much easier to pitch weight loss to.

I know this maybe more work in the long run, but a good niche is everything. People can make living with sites with under 100 clicks a day if it the niche good. (I've made this error many times myself when I was learning.)

I would try again with your new hindsight!

Thanks

Ok, bit late but one way to start:

a) Write 10 features of your product
b) Change each feature to a benefit for your ideal customer

Example for a pencil:

Feature: It's hexagonal
Benefit: It doesn't roll off your desk.

Focus on benefits.

Each benefit becomes an email.

End each email with a PS.

In the PS, tell them that tomorrow, you have something interesting/exciting to tell them….Cliffhanger. MAkes them want to read the next email.

Hope this is a start…..
