Why You Want Them to Leave Your Email List

Are you building your email list? No? Well if you are (and you still SHOULD be) I’m going to tell you why you want them to leave your list…

I get this concern over and over…and over again.

“I don’t want to email my list too much…so how much is too much?”

I’m not sure why people are afraid to email their list.

Maybe it’s because you’ve finally attracted subscribers….and hence don’t want them to leave.

You do.

Maybe it’s because you’re sensitive and don’t want to make people mad.

Make them mad.

Let me give you a little insight on what I have basically done for years in regards to my lists:Continue reading

Quit NOW if You Can’t Do This [VIDEO]

Seriously…you need to quit now.

I know…I frickin’ know…

Usually my post titles are usually literary pieces of gold. But I’ve been in a rant mode lately because I’m seeing so much stupidity in our crazy world of work at homeness.

And I don’t want you skipping down this path of ill-repute…otherwise known as being broke the rest of your life.

But what I’m experiencing from some prominent online marketers is just flat-out lame and I don’t want you copying what they’re doing (or NOT doing).Continue reading

Who the Hell ARE YOU? [Email Marketing Tip]

I don’t know about you, but when I get to know someone, I prefer that they use the same name whenever I see them or they call me.

Call me crazy…

…but my communications with someone in this scenario pretty-much-usually-more-often-than-not-actually-FREAKING-NEVER go like the following:Continue reading

“I have a very particular set of email skills…”

“I know who you are…and I know what you want. If you are looking for the freebie push-button way to riches, I can tell you I don’t have that, because no one does. But what I do have are a very particular set of email skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that can make you a ton of money. If you don’t listen to me, that’ll be the end of it (and you making any money). But if you do, I will look for you, I will find you and I will help beat your competition’s ass.”

In yesterday’s post, I brought you up to speed on the ‘must’s’ of Social Media. That’s how you pull people in. Now you must use the dagger of online marketing to put money in your pocket…

Email.Continue reading

Did you go to work today?

Did you go to work yesterday?

Let me ask you this:

Did you NOT go to your job for the last two weeks because ‘you didn’t feel like it?’

I’m better dollars to donuts that you DID go to work.

I think we all know what would happen if you didn’t.Continue reading

Build it and they will ask ‘who the hell are you again?’

‘Ray, people will come Ray. They’ll come to Iowa for reasons they can’t even fathom. They’ll turn up your driveway not knowing for sure why they’re doing it.’

For the movies…sure pal.

But in your business…eh no.

A great line by the James Earl Jones character in ‘Field of Dreams’ to be sure…

but…

people know why they’re coming to your website…

…and they ain’t just gonna stumble on to your blog willy-nilly.

I don’t care how many baseball bats or how much cotton candy you have.Continue reading

Jim Jones and the Social Media Koolaid

Hey…do you remember Koolaid?

Do you remember Jim Jones?

In 1978 good ol’ Jimmy ran what was now famously known as the Peoples Temple…a crazy-ass cult ran by Jones who was the classic nutjob who got 918 of his cult members to swig Koolaid laced with Cyanide which completed the largest known mass suicide in recorded history.

Nice guy.

Apart from the over 300 children that perished in this tragedy (unimaginable to even think about), no guns were put to those grown-ups’ heads when they sealed their fate by drinking the concoction.

‘And what does this have to do with Social Media?’ you ask?

Plenty.Continue reading

Will You Marry Me?

It’s amazing what true love can do…

…even in mere days, or sooner.

So last month I had a friend who met someone and in no time were engaged to be married…

– They met at a bar…they started chatting, which led to dancing and numbers exchanged.

And get this…

…they got engaged when they were walking to their car!

Unbelievable.

Yes it is.Continue reading
