This Weeks Success Article The Fastest Way to Build a Six Figure Income - Make Your Email Marketing Personal" By: Kevin Nunley Email is the cheapest most effective marketing tool ever invented. It used to take weeks and thousands of dollars if you wanted to reach thousands of prospects. Today, you can blast your message to your list in sec The cost is almost free. course, that's also the problem with email. It's so easy and cheap that we're all swamped with it. Create any presence at all for yourself on the Net and a thousand spammers, associates, friends, and potential co-venturers add your address to their lists. The amount of information--valuable to unwanted--is bewildering. I find it is harder and harder to get people to respond to email marketing. It isn't because they don't care about what I have to say, but because they simply don't have time to read it all. The one thing that cuts through mailbox clutter like a razor is a PERSONAL email message. Your personal rapid reply back to someone asking a question has the selling power of a 1,000 name opt-in list. You just can't beat the one-on-one personal reply to make friends and build sales. I have to give credit where credit is due. It was Bill Gates thouswho predicted some years ago that the Internet would eventually become a place where experts give personalized advice to customers. That is where the Net's real power lies. Most of us will pay to get a solution that fits our situation. We will pay even more if that solution is created specifically for us. Enough theory. Let's look at some simple ways you can put the Power of Personal to work in your email. 1. Offer to answer questions. "Got a question? Send it to me. I answer my own email and will reply back to you as quick as possible." When the questions start rolling in, start answering. Don't to solve the entire problem (that could take you all day, and the prospect will need to pay you handsomely for that kind of help.) Just help with one or two points. You can usually cover it in one or two short paragraphs. Don't worry about your ability as a writer. People mostly care about getting the information. Run a spell checker over your note and you'll be OK. The question I get most often is, "I'm getting lots of visitors to my web site, but they aren't buying anything." It usually takes me about five seconds to see what is wrong with their site. Then my answer back to them usually goes like this: "Your site looks great but it's hard to figure out what you are selling. Put some copy right at the top of your opening page that tells people what you can do for them. Then provide some easy-to-find order links. Make it easy for visitors to figure out what you can do to make their life better, then make it easy for them to buy--FAST!" 2. Include some canned information with your note. If you get the same question over and over again, start off with a fresh couple of sentences, then paste in your standard answer. Make sure your note doesn't go on too long. Shorter notes look like you typed them especially for the occasion. 3. Write articles and advertise in ezines (by far the most cost- effective advertising media available.) Establish yourself as a friendly, approachable source of information and advice. It doesn't matter whether you are selling guitars or legal help. People like to ask questions. They will give their business and loyalty to the person who happily answers them. 4. Be sure to include a signature file. That is the four line ad with contact info at the end of your message. I've known so many affiliates, service providers, authors, and consultants who got MOST of their business from their email sig file. One of the reasons a personal email stands out is so few people make a habit of doing it. I can't tell you how often I answer a question only to get a grateful reply back, "I can't believe I heard back from you. Nobody else will answer me." I don't get an order from every question I answer, but 4 out of 10 buy something and it's often a package priced between $400 and $600. Set aside a time each day to work your inbox. Come to think of it, it's the fastest way I know to build a six figure income online. ### Kevin Nunley answers questions, provides marketing advice, and writes for businesses.
