Small Email List Marketing Tactic

Alright, now I know a lot of you are just starting out, and do not have much of an email marketing list, maybe few hundred, or just a few dozen, and you thinking, god I’m never going to make any money till I get at least five thousand on my list. Not True! Believe me I used to think that as well. Until I hooked onto an easy, and free way to find out exactly what my email list wanted from me. I’m talking about having a survey conducted on your email list. Now you might be saying, survey, okay great. What exactly do you mean and why would I want to do it? Well, if you would like to, or need to, earn a quick several hundred, or several thousand, and have a small list, then do this little known email marketing tactic. Go to a site called Survey Monkey.

Okay, now there are two options, you can have a paid subscription, or a free one. If you know me at all by now, you know I’m all about free. Plus, free is more then adequate to accomplish this task. Okay, lets say you have a small list of say 875 people on your list. Lets also say it is a kind of general list of people in the weight loss niche. You have been sending them emails, and a few open, but no clicks, and your sending them to weight loss sites like crazy. Well you doing it all wrong. Basically, you have lost touch with your followers. No problem, we will just re-connect with them through an online survey that you will send to them. Now of course your going to want to get everybody’s attention. So send an email with these type of headlines:

Tell me what you want and I’ll get it!

Take 5 minute survey receive free gift!

Lose weight…THIS ROCKS!!

These are just examples of course, that have worked well for me, try whatever it takes to grab their attention to open the email. Okay, in the email you ask them to take a quick survey as to what it is they want! With a free account of Survey Monkey your allowed to set up a box with five questions on it, that have multiple choice. So says 25% open the mail, and take your survey. That is 218 people. Most will take the survey, say an average of 75% or around 163 people.

Out of them half told you they want to learn how to lose weight through dieting. So you simply go find a Clickbank product that offers a dieting program for around $35.00 with a free 2 week trial. You then specifically email that group of 163 people. You can do this because you will have “segmented” them in your email account on Aweber, Mailchimp, etc. Look for the segmented tab or button to accomplish this. Long story short those 163 get that email they were looking for, read it, love it and on average you will get conversions of about 50%-75%. So about 85 people times $35.00 equals $2,975.00!! All from your small list. It is a guaranteed way to get your list what they want, and make profits! It the perfect small email list marketing tactic
