question about list segmenting

26 replies
i'm completely new to segmenting. i'm using aweber. how does segmenting work? you send them to a squeeze page via your auto responder and they then re-enter their email on this new squeeze page? then obviously you can set up rules to take them off lists and what not....

but my main question is regarding entering a new list. do they have to enter their email address every time you want to segment them? seems like an annoyance if you already captured their email.

    for example... if someone buys an offer that i am offering, is it possible to remove that person from the list outside of asking the person to enter their email and opt-in to another list?

      There are many ways to employ list segmenting. If I'm not mistaken. Aweber has some helpful documentation on this topic.

          Seriously? On the Aweber website. Look for a link for documentation or training. Most sites have a 'search' function, too.

            thanks for nothing big frank. "go ask aweber" and "find it yourself" were not what i was looking for.

            i'm an aweber customer, but not at the moment. i'm in between lists so i don't currently have a subscription with aweber. it was a general question.

              NEWS FLASH!!! Lincoln freed the slaves. Do you actually think that I am going to spend my time working for you because you are too lazy to take control of your own life and do what needs to be done - BY YOU, FOR YOU?!
              i'm an aweber customer, but not at the moment.
              Translation: "I am not an Aweber customer."

      I apologize for understand this question incorrectly. I thought that's the answer for it. Sorry

    brodel34,

    First - my advice is to lose the attitude.

    Most of us are sat here working and leave WF open either on another computer - as I'm doing right now - or on another tab or screen. Point being: we're all working.

    You can't expect to have Frank run around aWeber for you digging up tutorials. He actually gave you solid advice.

    He may not have the time to spend 30 minutes writing up a tutorial, but at least he told you what to do to learn.

    You asked a bit of a silly question and Frank - probably quite shocked at it - wrote the first thing that came to mind. Probably what I would have said, too.

    Anyway - for what it's worth: chill out a bit and see if you can find the answers on aWeber.

    Cheers,

    Tom

    Hi brodel34,

    If you are offering your own product that you created, and you are selling on W+ or JVZoo, then the buyer will automatically add to your other list once they bought your product.

    But if you are offering an affiliate product you promote, you have no choice but to have your buyer to sign up again to your other list. In W+ and JVZoo, it have a column for you to insert your buyers' squeeze page link while you getting your affiliate link. You may offer bonuses so that buyer would sign up. But not all buyer would sign up though...

    Hope it helps, wish you all the best!

      How could it possibly help when it doesn't at all address the questions he asked?

      Oh, yeah, you think it helps YOU because you got your signature seen in another thread.

    The easiest answer to your segmenting question is you need to have them sign up to a different squeeze page or opt-in form for every list you want to put them on.

    One of the many question I see is if the people are already on my list, why do they need to opt-in again?

    By having them signup again is to put them into another subniche, which will allow you to target your subscribers much better because they are on a list that you know they are interested in hearing more about a specific subniche.

    It also allows you to put them into a completely different series of follow up email. It is important to not just consider your list as something you just broadcast to.

    By having them sign up to a new list with a different squeeze page will give you more highly targeted lists and help to automate your promotions.

    I personally have over 200 squeeze pages that I use to help segment my lists. Some of my smallest lists are the most profitable.

    I hope this has been helpful,
    Steve Yakim

    The only way to segment people using Aweber is to use AWProTools which lets you segment people when they click a link. Or link them to a squeeze page that they gotta re-opt in too so you can move them to a new list.

      Sure, as long as they all know that they wasted their time because you will never do anything with the information. Nothing. Ever. lol

              Sorry. The correct response was, "OK, wise-ass. I'll do just that if it will shut you up." lol

                  See, this is the crux of your problem. You continue to act as if you run the world and people should just 'hop-to' when you ask for help or give a command. Do you actually believe that the Mods are going to follow your 'command' to ban someone? Do you pay their salaries?

                  Look over to the left. Do you see the 'Thanks' number? I have been thanked for my input on this forum 1000x more than you have. Not 10x, not 100x, but 1000x. Whom do you feel the Mods are going to view as a more beneficial and contributing member of this forum? Even with the crap I dole-out on a daily basis - I'm honest and they know that. Do you think that these people are rookies?

                  Your incessant display of your sense of entitlement will fall flat, here. These people owe you nothing. You didn't pay anything to register.You can leave at any time.

                  Also, if you don't want to read my post, simply place me on 'ignore.' That's the reason that feature is included. But you won't do that because you love my posts, At some level they make you feel that someone on the planet is paying attention to you and that is the most important thing to you. You know that's true.

                  Enjoy your day. :-)

        Hi Big Frank,

        Even if your statement is correct, you need to realize that you and the op are not the only people who will be reading this thread.

        Other readers may have that ah ha moment and will be of great benefit to them. So posts in this forum are not just for you and the op's benefit.

        I always try to have my posts benefit everyone who reads them in some way. So you need to ask yourself if the last few posts in this thread that you have made has been of some kind of benefit to others who will be reading this thread.

        I hope this has been helpful,
        Steve Yakim
