Mailing 1 ———————————————–

Subject: Lost fortunes, lost files, lost tempers

Dear ….

Just a quick note to let you know of a rare opportunity to purchase a very classy system at a huge discount. If you are an internet marketer, there is a VERY high probability that you suffer from the problem which this system is designed to solve.

In fact, 95% of internet marketers have this problem. It’s serious, secret, and they don’t like to admit to it.

The problem is: being disorganized in the way they manage their downloads and their project information. If this is you, this hidden time-killer can cost you a small fortune each month in lost hours, lost files and lost temper!

My friend Alex Goodall has a way of fixing that. He is a highly experienced Knowledge Management expert, and he’s applied his expertise to internet marketing to create the IM Index Mind Map.

My reason for writing to you today about this is that Alex himself has a problem: not with downloads but with his wallet! And this is to your advantage!

You can read about it here…

Mailing 2: ———————————————–

Subject: Do you suffer in secret?

Dear ….

I wrote to you recently about Alex Goodall’s IM Index Mind Map, and how it solves the secret problem suffered by 95% of internet marketers…

…the problem of being disorganized in the way they organize their downloads and their project information. This is the hidden time-killer that can cost you a small fortune each month in lost hours, lost files and lost temper!

I’m just reminding you to grab your copy of his system before his huge discount offer runs out.

Only 100 copies are on offer, and only a day or so left!

Good luck!

The “tool” is actually a series of articles about organizing internet marketing information. I’ll be producing one article per week for at least the next ten weeks, and you’ll be able to leverage them in many ways – not only to help boost your IM Index Mind Map commission, but also to build your own list.

Each article will contain actionable information that will help the reader be better organized and/or more efficient in their work. It will also mention how the idea works within the IM Index Mind Map.

In other words, each article will perform exactly how articles should perform for a marketer – provide valuable information to the reader and indirectly promote a product.

You’ll be able to use these articles in many ways. Here are some ideas:

• Create a “free weekly organizing tips” autoresponder series and add each new article as it comes along. All you’ll need to do is insert your affiliate link to the IM Index Mind Map in each article.
• Once you have this series, you can offer it to your current subscribers. You will be strengthening your relationship with them and earning affiliate commissions from the sales of the IM Index Mind Map – all pretty much on auto-pilot.
• Building on your autoresponder series, you can also create a squeeze page and use it as a list-builder.
• And if you want a way to generate leads (for free) to your list – you can use the exact same articles  – just submit each one to a number of article directories, with a link to your squeeze page instead of your affiliate link to the IM Index Mind Map. Of course, you will need to modify the article rather more before submitting it to the article directories because other people will be doing the same thing and you don’t want be accused of simply copying someone else’s article.
• Finally, you can again modify the articles and add them to your blog. In this case, you can include your affiliate link to the IM Index Mind Map and/or a link to your squeeze page.

Watch for the first article shortly….

A win-win situation all round!

Watch for the next email in a day or so where I’ll be giving you more details.

Whilst I’m writing, let me remind you (or tell you if you’re a relatively new affiliate), that I’m available to give a webcast exclusively to your list on How To Be Exceptionally Organized

You’ll get the picture from the opt-in page that I used last month:

http://OxfordAndBoston.com/Seminar01Sep08

If you would like me to present this to your subscribers, let me know via the support desk:

http://OxfordAndBoston.com/Support

and we can set a date. I do 96% of the work, but you still get your full commission!

P.S. Remember to
watch for my next email about the new promotional resource!

I’ve just check the stats on my Aweber form that I use on the registration page for my new Teleseminar

http://OxfordAndBoston.com/Seminar01Sep08

and 64.9% of all unique visitors have registered for the event! (It was at 69% at one point!)

Even though I’ve only promoted this to my list, that’s still a phenomenal conversion rate in anyones’ book!

I’m delighted, as you can imagine.

(If you don’t know what Teleseminar I’m talking about, it’s on Monday 1st September at 7.00 pm Eastern and it’s called:

How To Be Exceptionally Organized In Your Internet Marketing Business

Look at this post for more details:

Now, that conversion rate is very good news for you, because the purpose of me creating this seminar is primarily so I can present it to your list, so you can get the commissions from the resulting sales of the IM Index Mind Map.

I’ll be using the same registration form (with your name included, of course), so if you have a good relationship with your subscribers, you could get the same result.

Remember that it’s often more effective for a third party to endorse/promote someone than for that person to promote themselves.

So you need to do two things urgently:

1. Register to attend the event yourself (if you’ve not already done so ) so that you know what it’s about. Even if the timing of the event is bad for you, sign up anyway so you can get the details of the recording. Sign up here: http://OxfordAndBoston.com/Seminar01Sep08
2. Contact me to book a date in the first half of September when I can present the same event to YOUR list. (Just respond to this email to express your interest.) I’m taking bookings ONLY for the first half of September and on a first-come, first served basis. So don’t hang around!

Now is a great time to be promoting the IM Index Mind Map!

This is the first of a number of updates which I’m very excited about, and I think you will be too.

I have created a Teleseminar/Webcast on

How To Be Exceptionally Organized In Your Internet Marketing Business

This is a 60-minute event on being organized and being focused. Anyone attending will get a lot of very valuable information and the event will also be a superb introduction to the IM Index Mind Map.

For a limited number of people who responding quickly enough, there will be a $20 discount off the product ($57 instead of $77).

Now, the point of me creating this seminar is NOT just to give it this once (on 1st September), but also to set up a time when I can give it exclusively to YOUR list, so YOU can earn the commissions.

More on this later, but for now, I want you to experience the event yourself, so please do register to attend.

Here’s the registration page.

http://OxfordAndBoston.com/Seminar01Sep08

I’ll create a tailored version of this page for when we do our event together, if you want to go ahead with that.

If you do want to go ahead with an event specifically for your list, you can book me NOW. (Use my Support desk – see link at top of page.)

I’m taking bookings ONLY for the first half of September and on a first-come, first served basis. So don’t hang around!

This time, we focus on people who perhaps are not yet too disorganized because they may be new. But they are very soon going to need organization…….!

The current price – up from $47 to $52 – is still excellent compared to the normal $67: so you can continue to promote the price. But now, also emphasize the Bonus – the eXtreme Resource Pack.

This consists of 101 IM products – nearly all with resell rights, including eBooks, videos, audios, scripts and desktop tools.

The messaging sequence on the sales site doesn’t mention the bonus until page 3 because I want to lead the visitor through a series of stages towards the buying impulse. The bonus only gets revealed at the end to strengthen and confirm the decision, or to swing those that are wavering.

But if you’ve already mailed to your list, those that were attracted primarily by the idea of organizing their content will probably already have visited the site and either bought or not.

So now, you can switch tack and sell the benefits of the bonus itself: this should attract different, new visitors to the site, so it’s OK to spoil the normal sequence of messaging by revealing the bonus up front in your email.

And in particular, if your list consists mainly of newbies, the bonus is probably much more interesting to them than the Map itself. But getting 101 products AND getting a way to organize them should be irresistable.

Again, it’s best if you use your own words, but here is something you can base your message on.

I’ll be sending out my mailing late in the evening on Wednesday 21st.

Good luck with your promotions

 Regards

Alex

I did some rough analysis of numbers of visitors from different affiliates and conversion rates between Friday and Sunday . The range was quite staggering.

One affiliate got over 9% conversions from visitors to the site – and there were several hundred visitors, so it’s a statistically valid figure. Others got lower conversions (5%, 4%…) , and some got less than 1%.

Three things go to make up a successful mailing campaign:

• The quality of the list – and how targetted it is for the specific niche (the IM Index Mind Map is very attractive to people who already have chaotic hard drives: newbies don’t see the problem yet. But see the next post on this this blog…)
• Your relationship to the list – how much the know, like and trust you
• The effect of the preparation of the prospects before they hit the site – i.e. what you put in the email

Of course, the effectiveness of the site at converting also helps, but the above three are the only variables in this case, since every visitor saw the same content on my site.

If you didn’t get the conversions you were hoping, don’t give up: try different approaches. Your list may have different characteristics to other peoples’. The better you know your list, the better you can tailor your message to them.

And, of course, the strongest message by far is your own, personal experience, in your own words.

More in a moment.

Those videos do a great job, I believe – but the sales do not come directly because of the features that the videos demonstrate.

People buy because of the emotions that are aroused when they view the videos. After all – organizing stuff is booooring! It’s not productive. It’s admin. So the only reason people buy is because some emotions are triggered – not because they have a deep desire to be better organizers.

I’m convinced that is true because people get quite ecstatic when they see what the Map can do. You can tell by the testimonials I get – all of the 100% genuine and pretty much every one spontaneously given.

And what is the key emotion people feel?

If you own the IM Index Mind Map yourself, think of your own reactions when you started using it. Even though I developed it, I got excited myself when I started putting it into operation.

And the strongest emotion I felt was… that I was IN CONTROL!

It is very a very empowering feeling - as I’m sure you will agree if you are a user.

That’s what was behind the email I sent out yesterday (read it here).

If you’ve not sent that out, I would do it today. Or, better yet, put your own feelings into words for the most effective response.

Here is another appoach to the same idea that I’ll be using myself later:

You can use this as well. (If you’re not yet a customer, you will have seen this already!)

(Of course, it is better to create your own emails, but if time is short, sending out a templated one is better than doing nothing. And since I don’t (yet) have thousands of affiliates, it’s unlikely that many people on your list will receive the same email from someone else.)

This one is very short and works on curiosity. I’ll be sending this one out to my own list shortly!

This one uses a quotation from a customer:

This one links directly with the theme of the sales page:

To remind you again….

What URL To Use 

Your affiliate link should be of the form:

http://im-index.com/imm/index.htm?aff_id=xxxx

where   xxxx   is your affiliate ID. If you need to look that up, go to

http://oxfordandboston.com/afflogin

In the emails above, I’ve suggested you use a cloaked form of your URL. If you don’t know how to set that up – don’t worry! Just use the affiliate link as shown above (with your own Aff ID, of course).
