The Hardest Part of Niche Marketing

by GuerrillaIM

Hello Everyone,

I have been mincing around all day with my autoresponder series. For me it is the hardest part of niche marketing as a good autoresponder and a bad autoresponder can be the difference between making sales and not making sales.

Article writing, designing sites, building links and onpage sales copy feel second nature to me and I steam through it. But when it comes to my autoresponder series I become a perfectionist and give myself a headache. Does anyone else suffer from the autoresponder blues? Perhaps you have some tips that could help me get them finished quicker? I try to make every email packed full of value so that my affiliate recommendations are listened to, my emails read and I don't get a high rate of un-subscribers. I think I need some sort of template to stick to perhaps?

Thanks (off to make some coffee now)

    your question was hard to understand, what is it exactly you are asking?

    stick to  thing you might be good @ such as twitter, article marketing, blogging, etc..

    Lately I've switched to my autoresponder messages containing just a little personal greeting and a tidbit of information, then linking to an article or a blog entry. (Note, not to a sales letter, at least not more than 1 out of 3-4 messages...) This builds traffic to the site and seems to work for me.

    Cheers, Rich

      Just be yourself in your emails...be a real person. (Don't try to sell all the time either.)

      Basically, don't try to hard in your mails. If you can't make it by just being "you", chances are you can't force it successfully otherwise.

        Do you feel this is true for all niches or just the IM niche?

        Good advice. I try to always have the softsell in the email with some free information and possibly resources and then a related affiliate offer at the end. It's difficult to get the balance right so people don't just think you are spamming them with crap and to actually push them hard enough to make a sale.
