Question on Email Marketing...

There no right and wrong about it. You can get started and expand your sequence over the course of time ...

... when you are ready, of course

Good for you - that's the right mindset - seeing success, I mean!

Uncross your fingers, work out a good plan and stick to it.

Again, it's a 'how long is a piece of string' question. But get going - don't let this type of thing be an obstacle for you. Learn by doing!

Again - right mindset

Well, I hope you read that somewhere because ... well ... that's symptomatic of the wrong mindset

Don't think about it as 'hitting' them; think about helping them and you won't go far wrong.

Good luck,

Will

Hi everyone,

I wish you luck

To build relationship with your list offer some value in the first 3 to 4 emails

And then offer your paid product
And I would think about OTO I hope you know what it's mean

When you offer one time offer to buy something to your subscriber on a thank you page

I wish you all best

Hi sb06,

There are not hard rules on promoting your products..
I have few JV partners that promote their
products immediately on the thank you email.

According to them, it is critical to strike the iron when
it is hot..
Thus for such strategies, you need to have a outstanding
free gift/bribe to earn their trust immediately.

This is rather more advanced than the typical one where
you will send a few valuable emails to warm up the relationship.

As for my case, I will do a hybrid of both.
I will have good content (at least 200 words) followed by my
offer. I did that for all my emails.

Apparently, the results are great so far.
Lower non-subscription rate and better sales.

You need to test it out to have a feel of the
subscriber's responses.

I usually load at least 30 emails in each campaign
to kick-start.

I will adjust the email sequence based on the
opened rate and click rate.

The higher responding emails will be moved up.
This will ensure the engagement of the subscribers.

These are more advanced email marketing strategies.
PM me if you need me to share more on these.


Cheers.

The best advice is treat your subscribers the same way you like to be treated.

Look in your inbox and see who's emails get opened and which ones get deleted and you hit the unsubscribe link.

A blog makes for a good way to share your ideas and do soft promotions with. The key thing is to really understand what the niche want to hear about and become the big fish in your area.

Get at least 2 weeks worth written up, depends how frequently you want to email them in those 2 weeks obviously. First couple of weeks is usually the most important time when you've got their attention so you need to connect regularly and make an impression with them so they don't forget who you are and also so they want to see more from you.

Amount of emails I get out of the blue from marketers who I can't remember a thing about them or who they are is unreal.

If you give good information in your e-mails, you can pitch in every one, but only 'soft sell'. So if you give information that is truly helpful to your subscribers, you can also point out a helpful course / tools or whatever.

If you're just straight up pitching from the beginning, expect unsubscribes. That said, if your list is expecting this then it shouldn't be a problem.

Indeed there can be a product mentioned in every single email if done in a subtle manner and no one will mind.

If you feel that your sending an uncomfortable message or feel that you are sending out too many messages, than your subscribers will feel the same or worse. Be reasonable with your subscribers and don't bug them with pitches, but teach them and help them solve problems and they will enjoy working with you.

I would send 4 - 7 emails with good information (problem and solution type - like what problems/needs the subscribers are facing and how to work with them) and send 8th email with discount offer. But still continuing the info emails.

.

Some promote their product right away and some wait to build some trust. It all depends on how you setup your system. Only testing will make it better.

I'm a big believer in a 7-day eCourse, where the new subscriber will receive 1 Lesson every day for 7 days. This is where you can build the know, like and trust factor all while preselling your main product and giving your new subscriber quality information.

So to answer your question 7 email messages.

Best regards,
Steve Yakim
