Hey Hustler,

Has anything changed in your email marketing attempts? I’m about to get started in a smaller niche in the next coming weeks and having a tough time planning my autoresponder series along with what offers to try and use as there is only one main offer I can find.

Cheers

Richard

Email marketing is key to your internet network marketing success and can help build your downline fast. This attraction marketing strategy can generate free, fresh MLM leads and get guaranteed paid signups, present offers more effectively and close more business sales. People who come across your web page will opt-in or provide their names and email addresses if they are convinced that you can teach them how to market themselves first, and build a list of their own free, fresh MLM leads. With email marketing you can tailor fit your marketing specifically for this group of leads, which in turn can greatly increase the chances that they will join your program. The best free, fresh MLM leads and MLM signups that you can get are the ones that you yourself have generated. Apart from you not spending anything on your self-generated free, fresh MLM leads, you can never be sure of the lead source when you just buy mlm leads.

Great series you’ve got going here. I think what would be really helpful to both you and your readers is to split test your subscribers to see if you really need to “build trust”.

For example, put half your subscribers into a list where you send out content rich emails, build trust, and then slip in an offer every now and then.

The other half you simply spam the hell out of them with every related offer. Using the emails that affiliate networks give you. Since you’re doing this for profit and not branding or reputation building purposes. Right?

Also, have you tried using the content network? A CPC of .25 for list building seems like a lot. Another thought would be to try a higher payout item in the place of the email submit. Even if your conversions dropped big time you’d be making more money of that first action post subscribing.

I don’t know how your emails look but a guy that does lists told me that I need to not send offers each email. He said, you need to offer them something off the bat, sure. Then send 2-3 “trust building” emails with good info. Then hit them with another offer.

I have no clue about how you’re doing your emails but I thought that would be some good advice that I would pass along to anyone reading this post.

I have been following your study as I need to use my Aweber account instead of having 200 emails sitting there.
