We continue our series of useful materials on affiliate marketing, and for tips on writing email campaigns, we turned to the world’s best specialist and master of emails – Prince from Nigeria. Of course, our conversation took place in the epistolary genre
Moonrover: Hello, Your Highness. You are known throughout the world as the person who wrote the most letters in history. Obviously you have a good understanding of mailings. Tell us how to start making money from email?
Prince of Nigeria: Greetings, dear Moonrover, thank you for your letter. In the past, I really experienced some financial difficulties and turned to people from all over the planet for help. If only you knew how many sympathetic and caring people there are in this world. They all gladly helped me . But you are asking me about affiliate marketing. For this you need a decent offer, a good website and then you can start thinking about building a mailing list. It’s not easy, but it pays off over time.
Moonrover: Hello, Your Highness. Thank you for spending your valuable time with us. Please advise where we should start on our difficult but promising journey into the world of mailing marketing.
Prince of Nigeria: Greetings, dear Moonrover. It’s absolutely easy for me to answer you, because as you know, my financial problems have been resolved long ago, but I’m still used to writing letters. This makes me happy. To start building your email list, you first need a powerful offer. In my case, it was a difficult life situation in which people took a very active part. But in your case, it should be some kind of product or service, something that will force a person to share their email address with you. This could be anything: useful downloads, video training, tools, or even the promise of discounts or a unique offer. Get a person interested and he will give you his email
Moonrover: Hello, Your Highness. Thanks for the quick response, are there other ways besides creating tools and surveys.
Prince of Nigeria: Greetings, dear Moonrover. On your website and landing page (after all, you have one?), there should always be a subscription form. These are usually pop-ups. Don’t overload your pop-up with information and remember to be polite. Politeness is always nice.
Moonrover: Hello, Your Highness. Let’s assume we have a list of addresses. What’s next?
Prince of Nigeria: Greetings, dear Moonrover. Next, you should find a good provider for automated mailing services. There are many options here, it all depends on your wallet and preferences. You can even find free ones. I generally had to start with paper and ink, and use good old physical mail. You can’t imagine how your tongue can hurt from constantly sticking stamps on it. But all this does not threaten you. In these modern programs, you can set an automated sequence of mailings. And you will never miss the right day. Of course, I answer every letter personally in the old fashioned way. But that’s why you turned to me.
Moonrover: Hello, Your Highness. We have a mailing list and good service. What’s next?
Prince of Nigeria: Greetings, dear Moonrover. Then you start sending your letters with offers and counting your profits. But remember that you should always test the content of letters and study statistics. Pay attention to every little detail. Only by constantly improving will you achieve true success. Or maybe you can even get a huge inheritance or win the lottery. After all, it speaks to those who do not give up
