Ron: I really enjoyed your comments as well as everyone else. I'm new to blogging and internet marketing, so I really don't have all that much to say, but at least I'll bookmark your site on stumble, only-wire, and delicious for you. Hope it helps! Thanks TG .-= TG´s last blog ..Affiliate Marketing – Double Your Affiliate Sales Automatically =-.

Roger,

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for the comment. Unless I just get tired of seeing the same thing over and over from others, I usually stay subscribed just to see what they are doing and if they ever start to ‘get it’.

Good posting. I am only just starting in online marketing and have seen the trend already.
Great content I read and if now and again they promote something I go look.
The people who send out promotion after promotion usually get dropped which is a shame because some times there is good content hidden amongst the heavy selling.

Peggy,

Better late than not at all!

I like those ideas, especially the one about pissing you off … DON’T do what they do… or say

Thanks for the comment.

Hey Ron,
Sorry I’m late to the party. It looks like a good one!

I agree with your post and I see many people burning through their hard-won list by using these tactics. I try to do some reverse engineering -
- What emails do I like to read? Why?
- Which of the marketers, whose lists I’m on, will I buy from? Why?
- Which ones piss me off because they keep blasting pitch after pitch?

Put yourself in your customer’s and potential customer’s shoes and look at what you send through their eyes.

Thanks,
Peggy

Hey Ed,

Thanks for the comment. I fully agree with the keeping it fresh. Depending on your niche and the relationship you have with your readers, it is a must to keep the content fresh, especially when starting a new list.

Hi Ron, How right you are, even the top marketers need to realise that to keep on top of the game you have to keep things fresh, and especialy where growing a list is concerned!

Hey Andre, thanks for the comment. What I like even better is getting the same emails w/the same subject lines from like 4 or 5 different ‘well known’ marketers and they don’t bother to change the content. You think THEY would know better!

I have to agree with everyone else on first this being a really good post. Like you I probably get more email from a lot of different marketers. it is interesting to be getting emails from them promoting something entirely different than what I initially signed up for. Some are worth taking a look at but I now tend to look at the different styles as to how people will approach with their emails and try to take something away from it.
