Come On, Take Some Responsibility!
|
So, I got a comment on our blog at Renegade-eBay-Sellers that both amused and saddened me. A guy named Fred' commented on a podcast Andrew and I did recently about the strategy of starting items off at 99 cents. Fred said we were wrong! That was the part that completely amused me. Us wrong, come on, that's crazy talk!
In case you don't know, the 99 cent strategy is where you start an item out at 99 cents in order to draw attention to your auction, which means more people will be attracted to it, and subsequently all the strategies to take them off eBay to your site (hide them away) come into play - as well as starting a bidding frenzy that has the possibility of taking the auction price above your normal buy it now price! There are many other advantages to this strategy, but those are the main ones to help you understand the basics of it.
After I stopped laughing at the thought that we may be wrong ;) - I read the rest of his comment.

The Little Autoresponder That Could
|
This is a story about a little autoresponder campaign that turned to GOLD!
I use an autoresponder that gets about 5 deliverabilty on a scale of 1-10.
It has import capabilities of 500 per day.
Not a lot you might say and 3 months ago I would have agreed.
I would plugin my 500 leads per day. It was an easy routine to follow and did not take a lot of time. I would buy 15,00 aged Optin email leads each month and get them all formatted and split them into batches of 500. That was easy too since I had a free list splitter that worked extremely well.
I had a 7 message campaign that sent a new message every 2-3 days. This setup of messages was mostly generic so it would fit for just about any Biz Opp.
I included a link that I tracked the number of hits and drove the traffic to a doorway page. Literally this is a set of doors. The lead must make a choice of which door they want. All I was looking for at this point was a lead that wanted to make a change.

Email Courses and Autoresponders
|
Offering free things to your website visitors is one marketing method that often results in a lot of sales. Free courses that are delivered via email are very popular, and people sign up for such courses on a regular basis to learn more about a topic of interest to them. These courses are best maintained and delivered with the use of autoresponders.
An autoresponder can be set up to send out a series of lessons for an email course. The lessons can be set for distribution at specific intervals. You determine how often the lessons for the course are sent to the people who have signed up for it. Email courses are very different from traditional courses, web based courses, or any other type of course.
There is no student and instructor interaction. The instructor writes the information out, puts each lesson in an autoresponder series, sets the timing for the lessons, and the rest is automated. You can opt to have lessons delivered daily, every other day, every three days, or any other time frame that you think works best for your email students.
Email courses are commonly used to sell products and services.
