Email Marketers Forum Launched

Email Marketers ForumAre you a successful Email Marketer? If so Email Marketers Forum may be just that place where you can share your expertise in the field. Are you new to Email Marketing? Email Marketers Forum is a good place to learn from the pros in the field.

After joining AWeber just over a week ago, I am very impressed with all the features that service is offering. You can literally created your lists along with the sign up forms in minutes. Building a list is another story. I have placed sign up forms on few of the websites expecting to get at least sign up a day. In worse case one sign up every other day. Forms are up for about a week and guess what, no sign-ups so far.

I guess in affiliate marketing, when you do not have your own product to sell, building e-mail list is more challenging than I thought it would be. I watched few tutorials available at AWeber, and from what I can say I followed the advice on how to create a successful sign up campaign. But for some reason I am not getting them. What am I doing wrong? If you have an answer to my question other members of Email Marketers Forum can benefit from your answer as well.

  1. Thanks for the mention of Email Marketers Forum!

    It should be lots of fun and hopefully makes lots of people money 😉

  2. Mark I think you may have hit a niche. I see many people have written about email marketing but your are the first to actually dedicate the forum just for that purpose.

    I think your forum can become very good if you can attract some pros in the field. I am looking forward to be very active on the forum but as it is now all I have questions questions questions.

    But hey I believe there is a saying that every wise man started from asking many questions right?

  3. Questions are good, I'm all questions too at the moment.

    Even the forum doesn't attract the pros I think we'll become the pros by our own trial an error 😉

  4. “I think we'll become the pros by our own trial an error”

    You right about that but it would not hurt us with attracting the pros. Any feedback from Shawn or other BumpZees yet?

  5. “You right about that but it would not hurt us with attracting the pros.”

    LOL, I agree 110%

  7. Building a good e-mail list is becoming increasingly difficult as more people realize that some marketers are just out to promote the next great thing — I've actually just unsubscribed from 5 lists this morning alone.

    People are realizing that they can sign up to the list, get the bonus, then unsubscribe. If your readers believe you have information of value and that you're upstanding, I do believe they'd subscribe of their own volition (i.e. no bonuses for signing up or whatnot).

    Before long, the marketers are going to realize that there needs to be a shift in their marketing tactics when it comes to e-mail (I hope) and things will start leaning more towards quality over affiliate product launches.

    45n5, I hope that your forum takes off. It's definitely a great idea and it may be the place where that change starts to happen.

  9. Teli,
    Thanks for stopping by. I am honored. I am still trying to decide about wordpresdatafeedimport. I've heard so much good stuff about the software. Unfortunately I can't afford it at this time. Any discounts for some one like me? 😉

  13. Teli,

    I agree with your opinions on some of the current email marketing methods.

    In fact I was rather jaded with email marketing and never considered it because of many of those reasons.

    I realized there were “non shady” ways to manage a list after joining aweber and that go me interested in getting into the space.

    There will be some hucksters pushing the latest cons as long as it works and then they will move onto the next thing eventually.

    My main turn on is the “permission marketing” angle with email marketing. Instead of paying a nickel to get one sale, I can now pay a nickel for the permission to market somebody over and over, because they WANT me to. I want my emails to be valuable of course.

    For instance woot.com. Tons of people give their permission to woot.com to market to them via rss and email every day and people LOVE it. Boy would it be nice to be woot 😉

    Thanks for the kind words.
