First, I want to say hello and introduce myself to the forum! My name is Mike Deschaine. I've had this account for a few years now and just soaked up knowledge, never actually participated. Something I'm going to change now.

I'm not sure if this is a bit pre-mature asking for help, but I've spent oh something like 3 years just trying to figure this IM stuff out! I went through the info-overload stage, and I made it here. I'm finally in the process of creating a project in the dating niche.

My question is regarding email marketing campaigns, specifically using auto-responders: I have a free offer to give away, but when creating my emails to shoot out, i'm having trouble understanding the best way to do it.

I have probably about 3 months worth of content ideas to feed to my prospects and obviously I want to pepper in some offers.

So, lets just say I'm getting something like 10 people a day signing up to my list, on each progressive day. SO, the people who sign up today will obviously be a day behind the people who signed up yesterday and so-on.

I'm wondering how to structure this so that if I come up with something current that i think my followers should hear, how do i avoid a double email?

For instance, you just signed up on my list TODAY. You don't know me, you just downloaded my free PDF and I suggested an immediate offer on a thank you page. So, you've already been bombarded to the max for the day. I'm more interested in building a solid relationship with my prospects.

But, I find an awesome offer that I want to shoot out to people right away. If I make a newsletter and send it out to everyone, and you're new, you would have gotten A confirmation email from me, an email to your pdf download, and you've already been sent to an immediate offer that day, plus an additonal email saying Hey check this out! If it were ME I'd say, "Holy crap, this guy is only going to bombard me with junk all day....unsubscribe."

How do i avoid this? I want to be able to send current offers and start doing some JV in the future.

at some point my auto emails will come to an end for you. Do i create a new campaign and filter the prospects that have completed the course to that? And how do I go about doing that if it is the case?


OR---

If I DON'T create the auto-responded e-course with offers peppered in, and just do everything on the fly daily...how do I make sure that my prospects that sign up tomorrow get the offer from yesterday?

I'm having a bit of confusion with this. Anyone who can help to clear it up would be greatly appreciated!
I'm using get response at the moment.

THank you!

    Yeah, the Main would have been better.

    But to quickly answer your question...Virtually all decent autoresponders have the ability to send a "broadcast" type email to all subscibers.

    So each will still be on their individual sequence, while all will reveive the "broadcasts".

      There is, but it appears on your screen only after you've made 5 "counted posts". (Posts in "Off Topic" and in the "WSO forum" don't count. Meanwhile I thanked Kurt "for you", because it's always a pleasure to "thank" his posts anyway).
