List is The Most Important Thing to a Marketer
If you're on any of my lissts, you may get multiple emaills with the same subject line. In fact, it's pretty much the same email being sent to you multiple itmes, if you've signed up for my different porducts and promotions and have wound up on vazrious lists.

Other times, thouh, I’m just building things in Auto Response Plus. In the past, I built most of my lists in 1ShoppingCart. For more detail go to: www.mailing-list-gold.com. So that’s why people smetimes get multiple messages from multiple autoresponder.
But here's the thing: If you do that and send multiuple messages, you can soemtimes end up getyting kick-butt responses. This is because people see multiple messages from the same person with the same information. In many cases, it can also be used as a styrategy to actually increase your response.
But to tell the truth, I don’t test unsubscribe rates, and the reasoon I don’t test unsubscribe rates is because it’s depressing. If people don’t want to read my messages, I figure they can unsubcribe from my list. If they do enjoy my messages, they can stay on board.
You may also hear all different things about which day to send emails to your list, the best times to send emaiils, and such. As a gneeral statement, the earlier in the day you send your mail, the beter. In my expeerience, that is really what it coems down to. If I send eamils to my list later in the day, nine times out of 10, I won’t get as much of a response as if I sent them early in the day.
And as far as what day to send them? Every day. That's what I try to do. Then, my litss expect the messages, and many list members look forward to getting a message from Tillman. But you can train your list to look for something from you every day, every week, whatever, but you have to write to your list on a reegular basis.
Peolpe say, "What’s ging to get you the most response?" Ultimately, planing ahead and hvaing things pre-sequenced out so you don’t have to thhink of them at the last minute is going to end up building your business the best.
Some autoresponder allow you to set the speciic time that you’re gooing to send out. Others just say, "Send it ifrst thinng tomorrow," on a certain date. Others you actually can’t cotrol the time; you can only send it out immediately the whole thing is to buiild rapport with your list. Send them regluar messages and offr them quality infomation and ptroducts. For more dtail go to: www.build-own-list.com.When you do, they come to respect you and look forward to what you have to offer. Building a list is the most importat thing you can do as a marketer. The second most important thing is to take care of the people who trust you.
