Subject: [firstname]: The money's in the list!

NOTE TO END USER: THIS E-MAIL CONTAINS AFFILIATE LINKS

Hey [firstanme]!

Yesterday I touched on mailing lists, and today I want to delve a bit more into this subject because your mailing list can be the most important weapon in your traffic generating armory.  In fact it's no exaggeration to say that your mailing list could go on to be your business's most valuable asset.

Let me explain… 

It doesn't matter how hard you try, you're never going to get a 100% conversion rate for your website. It just doesn't happen. Some people will visit your website, take a look around and then click away.  Unless you give them a reason to return, they'll likely never come back again.

The same goes for people who DO make a purchase.  Even if they're satisfied with the purchase, chances are they won't come back and buy anything else from you – unless you remind them.

This is the key!

I'm sure you've heard the saying “Out of sight, out of mind”.  With a mailing list you can remind people about who you are. You can e-mail them useful information to establish your credibility as an authority in your niche.  Perhaps most importantly, you can notify them about new products or services.  This means you can encourage them to visit your website over and over again – even when they weren't planning on doing so. Instant recurring traffic!

In case you're thinking: Sending out all those e-mails is going to be a real hassle!  Let me reassure you that's not the case.  You can use services called autoresponders to automate the entire process. 

Some popular autoresponder services are:

Aweber [YOUR AWEBER AFFILIATE LINK HERE]
GetResponse [YOUR GETRESPONSE AFFILIATE LINK HERE]
MailChimp [YOUR MAILCHIMP AFFILIATE LINK HERE]

I'll let you into a little secret… 

This e-mail was sent to you by autoresponder because you've signed up to my mailing list.  I practice what I preach, [firstname].

Talk soon!
