Critical Steps To Online Success - Here's An Action Plan To

Monetize your list!

You need to write an Email Series for your Auto-responder.

What's the point of this step?

You have to be ready for your visitors when they show up at your webpage. You've promised them a "Free eBook" and a free subscription to your Newsletter and now you have to deliver. The best way to do this is via an email series at your auto-responder that automatically sends the same series of emails to every respondent.

But unless you are a 100% philanthropist, you want to make some money from this venture. The best way to do this is with integrity. You need to provide value as well as make a sale. So make sure you are giving a lot of free relevant content in your emails between your sales messages.

Here's a series of emails that works well: ______________________________________________

Email #1: Day 1

This email simply says: "Thank you for requesting my free book - if you have trouble downloading please send me an email to your-name@your-email.com. I have another free gift for you which I'll be forwarding very soon"

Email #2: Day 3-give them a chance to absorb the first book

Send another free eBook or gift to generate good will - maybe some free website building software.

This can be a simple email that just says: "Hi John, here's a free gift for you."

Email #3: Day 5-give them time to absorb the second gift

Send Content - an article you have written is good if it's relevant.

Email #4: Day 6

Make your first sales offer. At this stage you probably won't have a product you have created yourself so your first product will probably be an affiliate product you have registered for. Briefly describe your Affiliate Product and provide a link to the sales page. You might also include a free gift or content as a bonus. Email #5: Day 8 Provide some more free content or another free gift and make your sales offer again. When people buy from you will need to send an email acknowledging this _______________________________________________ That's the end of the first series of emails for now. Remember this series goes out to everyone who joins your list, so everyone is receiving the same set of gifts and offers. You can extend this to a 20 email series if you wish by repeating emails 2 through 5 with varying content and products. Choose a length that works for you. After that you can begin sending individual emails to your entire list following the same format. These are not on auto-pilot. You time the release and content of these each time you send. If you have your own "first product" finished then this is a good time for you to begin to market that.

Keep on Winning Regards
