Is Email Marketing Annoying?
Here's the thing about email marketing.
Most every marketer out there, new ones for sure, are not patient enough to understand and apply relationship building with their subscribers in order to create value and make long term sales in whatever niche they are working.
Without fail a marketer will jump the gun and try to sell way to early in a responder series.
They may even make a few sales but there is no doubt that their unsubscribe rate will be much higher than sales conversions.
They fail to understand that "list building" is actually about building long term trust and value as well as actually growing a list not getting whatever sales you can get now.
For these type of marketers the answer to "Is email marketing annoying?" is a definite YES! Included in that group are even the long term veteran guys that have these big product launches and will bombard you with email after email daily about the "revolutionary system for making money online" The honest truth is at this point there really is not much that meets the standard of "revolutionary".
I talk with so many new marketers that want to know how many opt-in sites or subscribers do they need to have before they can start making real income with email marketing.
Obviously the answer to these questions really depend on the niche you are working.
One thing I do tell these folks is that it only takes one simple website with a opt-in that is supported by providing something of value to a subscriber as well as a nice newsletter series to make a decent full time income.
Do I personally think email marketing is annoying? No, I actually think that it is a great way to help people find the information and things they want online in a very intimate way and if done properly it can be the most effective way to make money online.
