MenuHow to run an email reactivation campaign?
Answers
If a subscriber is not opening my emails I sent send them to winback sequence but if Its me who hasn't sent an email for months, I just keep sending them like before..
The first step begins with the people who have not engaged with your emails, website, or any other content in a long time. Running such campaigns will not be easy for you have to make those inactive emails run through a reactivation series.
Besides if you do have any questions give me a call: https://clarity.fm/joy-brotonath
First of all you really need to think about a hook to get people's attention. You cannot just try business as usual. After all you audience did not hear for you for some time and will therefore not be:
a.) looking out for your emails anymore and
b.) not knowing the sender or ignoring it
So, try a funny angle, a mea culpa angle, "a you would not believe angle", etc.. Anything that gets at least attention and whatever may fit to your audience. Also make sure to run an A/B test for the headlines. If you are using an automated e-marketing platform such as Active Campaign or similar, they have an in-built functionality for that.
Now to the second part of your question. There is no hard number for how long should you send emails until you delete someone from your list. But my consideration would be the following: You have once spent most likely a significant amount of time and money to create that list so I would not give up any member easily until it is clear he is definitely not interested anymore. Of course defining the last part is not easy. But I would consider several e-mail, over several weeks and then follow up with an e-mail explicitly asking do you still want to hear from me and an opt-out and reactivate link.
Hope that helps. Best of luck.

The first thing I would tell you is the main things which hurt your domain deliverability are too many unsubscribes or spam reports. If you're not getting those, then I wouldn't worry too much about your domain deliverability.
I would suggest coming up with something "free" to offer like an small eBook or guide. You can also run a contest and give something away for free to a subscriber. By offering something for free that has a high value, you can entice those people who may not respond otherwise.
From there I would continue to send your regular emails for 90 days to determine who opens/engages. After 90 days, I would send an email asking those who didn't open any of those emails if they want to stay on your list. Some email programs make this easy to track by allowing you to tag subscribers who click on a link. I use ConvertKit and they do this. Otherwise, you will have to ask them to reply back or maybe click on a special link. Wait at least 3 days before you delete those emails which haven't opened.
You will end up with a smaller list, but it should be a much more engaged list which will give you a much better ROI in the long run.

How can I go about using social media outlets to attract new clients?
Hello, great question here. First of all you should understand that there is no 1 way and depending on who your audience is and what you sell the answer will definitely vary. A short answer however would be - engagement. Forget about likes and follows and shares are engagement, if you want to be a successful marketer you need to see engagement as conversations. The more conversations you can build around products the more you can rely on them to follow links or follow up on a request when you do make one. With that said, social media updates should be about what your followers want to see - depending on the social media - try to avoid being too pitchy on each post. My name is Humberto Valle, I have been a strategist for about 10 years now and have helped countless of entrepreneurs and businesses thrive through creative competitive strategy and marketing and I'm the co-founder of Unthink.Me. I hope my answer helps you a bit.HV

How do you approach an influencer, a "guru" or a podcaster /blogger in your niche offering a commission without being too direct?
Do the opposite. Think about it from their point of view. They get requests like these all the time and most of the time the request comes from random people they don't know. That would be kind of annoying right? You get an email from someone you don't know but they want you to do something for them? You'd delete that email too. Best way to get their attention...get a referral from someone they know and trust. Get someone else they know and trust to introduce you (this is the whole reason I built my business www.reverralriver.com). Referrals work the best. Second best way...develop a relationship with them before asking for anything. Don't email and ask for something right away. You wouldn't ask someone to marry you on a first date would you? Develop the relationship slowly. Give them value before ever asking for anything in return. Over just a few short weeks you could easily establish a relationship to the point where you could actually mention an "ask" which should be very open-ended and create absolutely zero work/friction for the person you are asking. One of my favorite techniques to warm-up a relationship...just email and tell them you appreciated (insert an article they wrote or service they provide, whatever, just stroke their ego). Tell them you're a fan and often point people their way. Then go way above and beyond and find their physical mailing address (it's not that hard to do) and send them a small gift or hand-written postcard in the mail just to say thanks. Then email them once you know they got it and just say thanks again. Then start emailing them various articles or things they might think are valuable, I'd say no more than once every 4 days. Connect on LinkedIN and message them funny pictures or GIF's. Show them you're human. Make them laugh and smile and just say "Hey I appreciate all you've done so just wanted to return the favor and make you smile (insert funny GIF here)". Then, once they know who you are, don't ask them directly to partner...ask them if they know anyone who would be interested in partnering. Below is a template I've used with great success...and the beauty is that they will often ask for more info and get interested themselves, but usually only if you have offered them some sort of value to stand out amongst the crowd. --- Hey (prospect first name), Hope you laughed at the last GIF I sent. I was just wondering if you knew anyone that would be interested in a partnership/affiliate opportunity… Real quick summary… I’m building a SaaS that automates the process of asking for referrals…it uses artificial intelligence to find potential leads in your existing customers network and makes it super simple for your customers to make the referral (one click of a button). If you know anyone that has an audience of people that would benefit from something like this I'd be grateful for an intro. I won't let you down I promise if you can make an intro. I’ll draft up all the marketing material and do all of the work, so all they would have to do is say “ok”, hit copy, paste, and send and I’d be happy to pay them 25% commission for life (or if there is another payment structure in mind I’m happy to talk about it) So what do you think? Can you help me out? Thanks, Parker ---- If you found this useful please upvote. Book a call with me if you want to know more or if I can help further.PW

I sell an actual item worn by women, mostly middle-aged. Need to strengthen our conversion rate. Which social media is best for this age group?
I've found that with the saturation of retail on social media sites in general, the best way to make a sale is to target the right people who are already looking for what you offer... For you: I'd recommend using highly targeted Facebook Ads (Target by age & gender plus any other things you know about your audience/buyers in terms of things they are interested in). You might also research companies who provide holistic relief for hot flashes, find their facebook pages and create a filter for your ads to target fans of theirs. You could see a HUGE return on just $100 Facebook ad buy. Good Luck and let me know if you'd like to schedule a follow up call; I'd be happy to walk you through the setup and some additional strategies!MH

We are launching a white label platform on Goodsie targeting small/medium size design/devs firms. Any ideas on where to start our marketing efforts?
The 1st thing you should do it to identify 100 potential customers from your group to approach them and to offer them to use the platform to test it out. These people will not only give you feedback on how to improve it but also will give you testimonials for your website. The next thing to do (when you have the testimonials) is build some landing pages and to run some Google AdWords. Do some A/B testing and test different value propositions. I recommend adding some retargeting to your site so you don't lose visitors forever. When you have tested out which keywords work best, you cans tart investing more in SEO. It will take time to rank well but it's worth to start doing it early. Focus on content marketing that is related to your product and at the same time attracts and educates your target audience. Use ebook and webinars to generate leads and engage your audience. Don't forget to focus on blogging. That is really important in your type of business. Share your content on social media during the day. Use followerwonk to know when to share on Twitter and run some tests to figure out the best time for Facebook and Google+. Find influencers in your industry and connect with them online. These people will make the difference in your business. I believe in the first months you should focus on: 1. Getting feedback about your product 2. Generating leads through PPC, SEO, content marketing and social media. 3. Using your first users feedback to generate some publicity If you're looking for a more in-depth strategy for your business, don't hesitate to schedule a call for me. I'd love to learn more about what you're doing and to help you out craft the strategy that will help you achieve your goals.
