Marketing Success Lies in Buyers, Not Just Leads


Have you ever bought a list of supposed "double opt-in subscribers"? Or maybe "hot leads"?

These lists are helpful, but surely not a panacea for getting bottom-line sales (as you've likely found out). These could range from people mildly interested in something (enough to opt-in) or even very interested (enough for double opt-in), but unless they are buyers, they are just freeloaders.

Yes, freeloaders. I, also, am a freeloader on many things internet-based. How can you not be? Info is so easy to get; so free! I often subscribe to get something with a mild curiosity. Sometimes (rarely, though) I do go on to buy. But often this takes several visits and research before I purchase.

You are getting the same thing if you buy leads. They are a list of freeloads. Maybe they'll buy from you; maybe not.

If you're going to spend your money, wouldn't you prefer a small list of proven buyers who have shown to shell out their cash at offers like yours? Or would you prefer a huge list...of freeloaders?

I don't mean to be crass. As I said, I am often one of those freebie-seekers who never opens her wallet. But then sometimes I do. Then I become one of the cherished...a proven buyer.

Everything You Should Know Publishing Package for Wanna Be Top Selling Authors

I got the package and I'm making my way through the videos. My thoughts thus far: 1. Lots of info! I got the Platinum package and so far I'm impressed with the amount of info. 2. As usual, there's sales info for other packages, but so far I've gotten a good amount just from this without buying more (which I'm not apt to do.) 3. Seriously, Mike Koenigs...don't give advice on dressing right now. Your way-too-big blue shirt didn't make you look like a pro; it just made you look silly. If this is the strategy behind "dressing for the everyman" that you take, it seems really, really dumbed down. I think we can all handle you in a well-fitting shirt. (See video #2 for this.) 4. On a good note, Mike: You're a good speaker and easy to listen to. I like the message. Goes double for Arielle. Wish I could still hire Arielle Ford as publicist (could I even afford her?). She knows the biz. Unfortunately (see previous posting), the biz changed...

A Prolific 13-Year Old Author Interview: Natalie Tini

Read our interview with Natalie Tini, a young prolific author Her new book is Sewing a Friendship So, Natalie, you're a young author! Is this something you want to do when you grow up? >> I think so. I believe that writing is one of my talents. I wrote and illustrated 12 books and I am working on another 5 new books right now. What is your book about? >> My first book is about four friends and a rival. Each has a specialty. Sokron is a visual artist, Meeka loves numbers and math problems, Nina is sensitive to sound and music and Jonsy is sensitive to feelings. They decided to have a PINK SLEEPOVER to celebrate the end of school year. Meeka came up with the idea that the four of them should go to the park first. Once at the park, they met Kiki Shaver who was known as the meanest girl on the planet. Later on, they found an invitation for the fashion show; however, the rules indicated there must be five people on a team and one model from each team must be...
