It depends on many things . when i started online i used to have a list of 2000 subscribers.
But most of the time no sales, zero!.
I did not know how to copyright and treat the list so my open rate was like 8%.

Standard conversion rates for email marketing should be in the 1-2% range.

Hi, I also noticed that the open rate is rather low when using email marketing. Could be due to the subscribers are busy or they only open selective ones. Hence, marketers kept sending the same stuff using different strategies to attract or increase open rate. In other words, we got to grow our email list and establish relationships to help people before they are convinced to convert. We ask ourselves these questions - do we open all mails and which are the ones that really make us want to access to find out more?

That really depends on the quality of your subscribers and how well you talk to them. it can even be higher than 10% for 1000 subscribers if you feed them with value

I always got 2% conversion.

And trying to optimize the system, so i can push that number become bigger.

I would expect that i can get 5% or 10%. That's my goal and i have a plan for that.

I have a list of about 1.700 subcribers and i got more than 50 Sales alreay. Few trial recurring products

And i feel like the sales still keep coming. This is Awesome!

You've got a 7k list and haven't sent them anything yet??

You should be developing a relationship with that list ASAP.

I remember, a few years ago I read a message here... One forum member (I forgot his name) wrote, he had a list of 50 real estate agents.
Every time he sent a message he got almost 100% open rate. Not sure about sales. Maybe, sales was not his number one priority.
So, it depends.

Here's some actual figures for you.

These are from a third 'not opened' email to a fairly general list.

A 9% 'open' rate and an 'open to sale' rate of 5.89%

I hope that helps.

Hi guys,

I am following Anik's Singal Inbox Blueprint system to email marketing. I am in the personal development niche.

My list is currently over 1,000 subscribers and I am promoting affiliate offers from Clickbank. I've done marginal sales so far.

Here is what I am doing. I was hoping someone more experienced would point out what I am doing wrong as I am very dissatisfied so far:

1. I have a site (www.onlineschoolofwealth.com) with a very clear opt in page. Conversions are pretty good at 80% but minimum traffic. I do SEO and promote content through my emails.

2. I pay for traffic through solo ads on clickonomy. I get plenty of unsubs after a few days so I'm wasting money on bad traffic. I stopped buying for now until I figure out a different way.

3. After they subscribe to my list, I start building a relationship right away. 10 days of autoresponders and then emails 5 days / week. I mix it up, content, quizzes, stories, promotional offers every 3rd email.

4. Open and click rates are pretty good, even though they dropped recently. Perhaps of more bad traffic I acquired or they simply got bored.

I hear other people having amazing results and I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I asked some people and they mentioned that you can have consistent profits at a 10k list.

Is this true?

Do you guys have some words of encouragement? I followed everything to a T and I constantly keep learning and improving things.

Should I keep going?

Thanks very much

You are asking the wrong questions. # of sales is meaningless. This business is about making money not sales. If I said I got 100 sales from every 1000 what does that mean? Is that better than 1 sale out of 1000? impossible to answer unless you know the amount you are making.

Measure results from either $earn per subscriber or EPC.

I have a list that is around 220,000. I get 7-8% overall CTR (about 35%open). So for every email I send I get 15,000+ clicks to whatever offer I am running. EPC is what I look at. IDC how many sales I get as long as the epc is good cause I can control the # of clicks somewhat.

hope this helps

It depends on your list. A few days ago I designed a quality template and collected 2000 niche related emails. After sending the email got 40 sales.
So, I think email template is very important to get more conversion.

It depends on the quality of the list that you have.
From some lists, I make 1 sales/100 mails and from some other lists make only 1 sale/1000 mails.

I would like to ad some thing into the discussion, I have around the 12K mark in subs and have a great relationship with the various lists i have

The one thing I never did was spam them at the start and I nurtured them and train them, so I have a very healthy bank balance because of it

IMHO I think some of the teachings now are out of date and people are more in tuned to either delete emails or report them into spam or unsubscribe

And to the OP you have get in now and set some relationships up with the list or you will be paying a lot of execs AR fees every month

Just my 2c
Jason

For 1000 email can get around 50 conversation and in this 50 can convert 10-15 into leads.

You can't ask a question like that and expect to get a certain answer to use as an example for your own list.

Everybody's email list is different. Some people may have more engaged subscribers than others.

EX. Bob might have a list of 1,000 and get 50% sales, meaning he get 500 buyers every time he promotes. (pretty engaged list)

on the other hand

EX. Mary might have a list 1,000 and gets only 100 buyers every time she promotes. (list less engaged)

Now that doesn't mean that Mary's list is less engaged in general, it might only mean that not all of the engaged people on her list wanted the product she was promoting.

So you can see, that you can't really depend on other peoples list variations to compare to your own, to get an accuarate ratio.

But I understand where you are coming from. Sometimes it helps to see what's happening with others list to give you an idea, but you also must remember if you are going to relate there's with your own list, you need to make sure you are in the same market.

Just throwing my 2 cents

Here is my 2 cents.

I know your list a little as we spoke earlier today as per your request.

You really need to start engaging your list and providing value to them.

Then, with your skills, I would create my own products 100%. That's where the money is at.
