OE/PSI – Private Strategies for the Internet

Have you struggled to generate traffic to your website?Your website is not alone. My websites have been posted and received very few visitors in the past. Unless you are an web guru, we are probably on the same page.Have you heard of email promotion?I have. Again and again I sent out my emails, but when you only have a handful of people on your list, you do not get much in the way of results. I admit, I have failed miserable at selling through emails.Michael Jordan is certainly one of if not the greatest basketball players of all time, but I remember his saying, "I have missed far more shots than I ever made." Maybe we just need a little tweaking.Then I stumbled upon a secret about email promotion the gurus did not tell me.Part of my confusion has been a misunderstanding on my part or maybe an intentional omission by the gurus. The email promotion is essential, but don't do it or you will be shut down for spam violations. Or so they say...None of us want to receive spam or emails that we just do not want. I have a whole bunch of emails that automatically go to my junk mail file every day.So, here is our dilemma. We hear that selling through emails works, but we cannot ethically send out enough emails to make it work.Maybe, if we could send our email out through someone else, and use their perfectly legal opt-in email list; would that work?One day I saw this ad from an online marketing service company. They offered to send out my email ad to their huge list of opt-in consumers. In just a few minutes, my ad was delivered to millions.I suppose there are many different ways to do this, but since I have always been told I needed my own list; I use this bulk email approach to build my list. I take my usual, opt-in offer and set it up to receive the responses from the bulk email promotion. I offer my free item, and thousands sign up on my list. Now I can legitimately market to them again and again at no additional cost.From this point on, my email marketing offers real promise and the hope of significant profit. My emails are now from me. I can begin connecting with my email list members.I try to follow all the customary guidelines when it comes to my emails just to be sure I do it right. I avoid extreme promise, words like free, deep discounts, and emails that are too long.Good content is simply giving my customer, what they are looking for. That is what I want to give them. Some kind of call to action is included in each email to encourage readers to visit the website or even buy something.Before you launch your own bulk emailing campaign, see David Trumble's website Wedding How. com.
