What is the best strategy for AutoResponder Email Follow-up?

2 replies
Okay so I have my capture page. I get their email, and now they are going to start getting my email follow ups.

What is the best strategy? I bought a PLR in my niche and have 25 articles about my niche. But when do I actually start promoting?

I've heard that the 5 valuable emails and 1 promotion has worked for some. So does that mean that my first 5 emails don't contain any links at all until the 6th email? And do it all over again? Or what has worked for you?

Obviously the goal is to get the sale, but don't want to burn out my list by doing too much promotion. My goal was to email every day.

    2-3 follow up with introduction, establishing authority and explanation to what to expect works fine for me. Then it is mix of promo and content delivery. Careful with the promo. Don't just say buy this. Go ahead and research the product first.

    Hello.

    I personally would filter your email address out if you send me an email every damn day. I know a lot of internet marketers send out daily, as we speak.

    Now, I don't have the stats to backup the effectiveness of this "email-daily-strategy." I don't know for sure if the not so subtle approach compensates for the knee-jerk white knuckle reaction it receives, at least, my case. Is it marketing for money or marketing for relationship, which eventually earns the marketer income without forsaking relationship, you are after?

    I have a site that uses an autoresponder and I mail out weekly at a 4:1 ratio. Since the site is fairly new, I don't have the numbers to compare sales with the in-your-face approach of unwanted emails (goes to show you how rankled I am with this type of marketing). By the way, the 4:1 ratio I learned from Pat Flynn's blog post at Smart Passive Income.

    But speaking from an end-user/recipient standpoint, I don't like a deluge of emails from the same sender, most especially from marketers whose focus of emails are 99% affiliate sales pitches.
