Just purchased a niche email list and content and need advice on how to proceed.

6 replies
I recently purchased a package deal on Flippa in a niche I have wanted to get involved with for some time. The Aweber list is 2,500 niche subscribers that have already been through the 20 message, fully monetized, autoresponder cycle. The deal also came with a big Facebook account and a great domain name and landing page.

I have some content to add to the beginning/middle/and end of the 20 message cycle, but i'm not sure how to proceed as I don't want to send my current list duplicate messages. Should I start a new list with my new subscribers with both the old and new content in the autoresponder cycle, and then tailor an advertising campaign with only new emails to my old subscribers? Should I just mix the two together and resend all the original emails to the old list? This is my first time dealing with a list that has already been through an autoresponder 20 message cycle and I'm not sure the best course of action.

My goal is to continue driving traffic to the landing page to capture more emails, as well as create new content for my autoresponder messages. I know the list of 2,500 subscribers is a good list and I would like to continue to monetize them as well. Sorry if that is confusing but I explained it the best I can. Thanks.

    It sounds like the least amount of work would be to mix the new content with the old and send it to everyone. Truthfully, it will be a rare individual who will be unhappy with getting the same email twice and most will not even recognize this has happened.

    You could rewrite the old content a bit to freshen it up add your new content into your cycle and send all those to everyone.

    Send Broadcasts to them first to see how active they are. Then re write the content like Michael stated above! Hope you have huge success!

      Check out a tool called aweber pro tools. They have something that will let you automatically move subscribers from one list to another after they have completed an autoresponder sequence.

      Then what you can do is send broadcast to the the list you have now, and have the new subscribers added to a new list that will run through the autoresponder sequence and then get moved to the broadcast list when they are done.

        Thanks for the feedback everyone. This is exactly what I was looking for though, I need a way to separate the old list from the new list, then combine them later. The 20 email autoresponder list I have now is very good, well written content and I would prefer not to change it. Plus, I think it will be obvious to them if I resend the same emails.

        Can you have too many emails in your autoresponder sequence? I was thinking about sending an email out everyday for 35 days total.

      Usually I would tend to agree with you, but I know this list hasn't been spammed. Also, the main reason for my purchase was not the list, I wanted the domain name primarily, the facebook pages, autoresponder, and list were just extras. I'm going to use the infrastructure to build upon the current list.
