On February 8th I emailed this to all affiliates. I think it is worth posting here.
Yesterday, one of the presenters in this summit took some time to send a letter to their list about the summit. This letter is not in the affiliate area. She actually took the time to listen to the speaker that day and was so impressed by what she heard was compelled to email her list.
I have not asked her for permission to post the entire email. I’m sure she would be fine with that, but just an excerpt will make the point.
From her email:
“As I write this I’m listening to a fascinating interview with Connie Bennett, author of the bestselling book, Sugar Shock! She is sharing some really empowering information about the benefits of giving up sugar. If you’ve been struggling with a sweet tooth or trying to convince a loved one to give up sugar, you must listen to this interview. Sorry for the late notice. It’s available until 9AM Sunday morning. If you miss it, consider ordering the recordings.”
She went on to share some of Connie’s points and talked about other great speakers coming up. soon and how to hear the rest of the speakers.
Did I mention that this presenter doubled the number of leads she had after she sent this letter to her client list? Yes. Doubled the number of leads, and she did all the other emails requested. 10 days, 5 days, launch day. Yep, did them all. None of them made her list respond like a real, from the heart letter.
I’ve tried to provide you with lots of tools to generate leads for you. I try to make it quick and easy, no fuss no muss so you don’t need to spend much time at promotion in order to make a few bucks. Many of them work pretty good. But I cannot write from your heart.
Maybe it would be better if we just slowed down, took our time, and spoke to our client list from our heart in our own voice. Rather than the promo voice that you will find in the affiliate area.
Today, Tom Nicoli is speaking. Did you know that Tom is giving away one of his new products that will help anybody who is using any diet program? It’s called “Make My Diet Work”.
This is not one of those “if you buy this, you get this free” deals. It’s free, no strings attached. Just log in and download it.
I am not going to post anything in the affiliate are about this. I think it is pretty eveident that if you want to do what the speaker above did, you must take a few minutes and do it yourself. Listen to Tom and tell your list what you really think. I know Tom and I will with all our lists. Is it worth 20 minutes (yes you can fast forward through some parts) to write a letter and tell your list what you really think? If you cannot do it today, how about tomorrow or the next day?
Thanks for taking the time to read this. I know I rambled on longer than ususal, but I really feel this is important.
