Dennis Edell’s last blog post..How Do YOU Spend For Advertising, Or Do You?

Are we talking ‘signup page’ or ‘thank you’ page?

Proof? Nothing tangible; I just noticed that I received more signups at my second AR as well when I made the link obvious from the first signup page. And my goals for the thank-you page are mainly non-tangible as well; ie, continue the ‘softsell’ with the ‘here’s some additional help to ensure you receive the newsletter’.

Keep in mind – the majority of my ‘customization’s via email center simply upon politeness and making my voice unique from other other bazillion of marketers out there.

Hope that helps!

“They know it’s coming. They don’t really read it, just look for the link and click”, is basically what I was told.

Do you have any sort of proof that sign-up “respond” in certain ways to your customizations?

Thanks for the link on Conversion Rate Squirrel – I’ll check it out! And thank you for your kind comments regarding my post; I very much appreciate them.

Best wishes,

I agree whole-heartedly with your third point about sending back something with real value.

Like Jeff, I’m on tons of lists that provide only marginal value, but one recent subscription stands out because of their humor and the quality of everything they send (if anyone’s curious, it’s the stuff from “Conversion Rate Squirrel“, LOL).

It’s more work upfront, to be sure (and honestly, that’s what’s kept me procrastinating on doing it myself!), but the user experience is worlds apart.

Michael here from Emarketscout.

Wow, you’re imaginery conversation betweeen a website owner and a visitor really got me rotfl …*-).

Thanks also for revealing your funneling technique. It’s always good to know how other smart marketers work.

Looking at your site makes me think of one or two tweaks to add to my blog too.

Keep the good work up.

Regards,

Michael

I’ve been running autoresponders now since 1998 and have found that it’s the little things that count! There’s another trick I forgot to mention that deals with hyperlinking not only your site but your other ezines/bonuses to your signup form; I’ll have to dig that out and write it up.

Thanks for visiting!
