Open rates and engagement very low.
So I've built a list of 200 leads using a vendor from Udimi with top tier traffic.
Once they opt in they go to my funnel where they are recommended to get different affiliate software products like ClickFunnels, Aweber etc. and they should then import the funnel to their CF account and switch out my affiliate links with theirs, so they could potentially make commissions driving traffic to it. Despite followup a tiny percent had taken action with it.
They say industry average open rate should be 20%, but I'm only getting at most 10 people and much less each broadcast, dang.
I'm trying to build trust with follow up and using compelling subject lines, but out of my 200 leads very little are receptive, which I hope is fairly normal.
The goal like any Internet Marketer is to really profit from this list long term. I didn't know whether to keep driving traffic to increase my odds, or change my strategy/lead magnet altogether.
How do you engage a unreceptive list and get a higher open rate down the line? I appreciate any suggestions/honest feedback.
Thank you.
