Your Questions About Email Marketing Lists
Susan asks…
Anyone have success with email marketing??????!!!?
Im going to buy an email list from a list broker. There also going to send out the email I created to the whole list. Every email in the list is valid, & the people have bought products before. I just want a straight answer here please. : Has anyone ever had big success with affiliate marketing through an opt in email marketing campaign? If yes then explain how good you did.
There are data cards the company provides, but I just want to know of anyone has been successful with email marketing. If you have then please let me know. thanks

Well I have been successful, but not from a list I bought. You have to build the list yourself and build a relationship with your list. I have been Internet Marketing for about 3 years now, so I send e-mails out helping people to get around a lot of the obstacles that I went through, stuff I had learned from my failures. It also helps to have a website they can refer to, so you can establish a more physical identity in your relationship. My website is full of info that trains people on how to get traffic and make sales, so when they see my e-mails they know before they open and read, that they are getting ready to get some needed info.
Everyone that signs up with my lists are double opt in, and I offer good free information before I try selling anything. I actually never really offer anything without giving out some free info, lesson plan, training guide or book first.( in every single e-mail I send out) I use aweber for my campaign, And my best campaigns have about 10 e-mails that are sent in over the first 2 weeks on auto pilot with genuine info that my clients wont find anywhere else for free.
The goal is to get your list to know your name when they open their e-mail, you want them to anticipate your next e-mail. And don’t really shove anything down there throats, subtly put in affiliate links, affiliate links should be more of a bonus to the info you give them.
I have not made any conversions from lists that I bought in the past, you have to understand that you have no idea how the list was acquired. So these people may not even be interested in what you have to offer, or even check there e-mails at that. I’m not saying you wont make any sales, but I can bet your conversion rate will be extremely low. My latest campaign, I would say I had a big jump from about 3% to around 12% after about 3 weeks, ever since then it has been pretty steady around 12% – 17%, it is hard to calculate because my list grows a little everyday. I also don’t have a way of tracking if the conversions are coming from new subscribers or old subscribers yet, but this is my most successful e-mail campaign so far, and it is the first time i put this much effort into it as well.
With a list that you build, you know exactly where they came from and why they opt in. And with a Double opt-in list after the user voluntarily inputs their e-mail info, they still have to open their e-mail and confirm again that they want to receive my information. So, therefore I know they check there e-mails, they want mine, and the e-mail goes somewhere they can see it.
Donna asks…
Email marketing problem (About SPAM, USA based question)?
As we know some people use email collecting softwares (Email harvesters) and bulk mail sending softwares to spam, Most of these softwares are made buy USA based companies.If USA people and government hate SPAM why they allow them to sell and produce the softwares like this? Are their any sign of going to Band bulk mail softwares manufactures In USA future?
Jere answers:
Bulk Email Software will not be banned, nor considered to be banned. Just because something is used in one aspect for means that cost others financially, does not mean it is a bad product.
Many small companies use bulk email software to contact their customers about specials or even new products listed on their site.
It would be like banning hard lined phones, since most phone calls are from telemarketers and are cold calls unwanted by the person who owns the phone. Or banning MySpace because people are using it to contact minors to do them harm, or because of it’s direct usage causing death to minors. Both of these items have a lot of good usage, and should not be banned just because of a few bad apples using them…..Same for Bulk Emailing Software.
George asks…
A coworker put my email address on a marketing list how do I get off?
It is a home town address where people buy and sell and advertise (babysitting, jobs ETC.)
Jere answers:
If you are getting emails through an email list manager like icontact, constant contact, aweber, or any legitimate business, the opt-out link at the bottom of each email should be honored, there’s some concern that wholesale spammes might identify a live site by the opt-out click.
