List size isn't even that important. I've juiced 6-figures out of 500-person email lists over the year. It's getting the campaigns to convert that's tricky. Good copy, list segmenting, endless split testing, etc.
As for 'deliverability', yea, there are headaches with adult. And I think barefootsies knows more about the technical stuff than I...but it's really just a matter of having a good server and treating your list respectfully.
I get your point though. Setting this all up and creating winning campaigns year-in, year-out takes a lot of know-how and time. I'm just pointing out...the ROI is there if people will do it.
Or if you're pressed for time, there's an oddball on this forum who for some queer reason really gets off on this stuff.  |
I, for one, would greatly benefit from whatever insights you are willing to share. I am also making a point of reading Barefootsies' XBIZ articles on email marketing (thanks BF!!).
This week I opened an account with Mail Chimp to try sending mailings to my 25k+ ex-Members list. With Mail Chimp it appears that they will send out many emails to that 25K list. This is for $200 monthly. But if I can send out 2-3-4 emails a month for that cost I think I can make it profitable.
Now WHAT to write in those emails, HOW to market my newest sites, etc - that's the trick. I am willing to learn because I have not exploited that list in any way so it's really 'virgin territory' and I know revenue is lurking there within that list.....
