Help: What email software do you use?

by

Maybe you can give me your input and advice:

If you have an email list, either for your own business or for a client’s list you manage, what software do you use to actually send the emails?

I’m asking because I myself am using a service I am not happy with, and I’m looking to switch.

Long-time readers know that I used to use ActiveCampaign for many years.

I switched last year, because ActiveCampaign had jabbed me for a long time with technical glitches, and then delivered a knockout right hook when they started punishing me (via a new pricing scheme) for sending daily emails as opposed to just weekly.

So last year, I switched to Kit.

Kit wasn’t perfect, but at first blush it seemed adequate. There was just one problem:

I noticed that dedicated readers, ones who had been on my list for years, and some of whom had paid me hundreds or thousands of dollars over the course of those years, were getting bounced off my list.

I’m sure it’s possible some of these people died, or had been put in jail, or simply got out of business, and their email accounts no longer work.

But the number of people getting bounced off my list has been worryingly large (197 over the past year, since I’ve switched to Kit). What’s worse, a large fraction of these (larger than for my entire list) are people with custom domain email addresses. And like I said, many are previous customers or dedicated readers.

To make me even more suspicious that something is rotten with Kit and bounces, I myself have been bounced off multiple Kit lists, multiple times, even though my own email address is working just fine.

A couple days ago, after my homebrewed system notified me that Kit had silently bounced another batch of 5 subscribers off my list, I contacted their help department as a last-ditch measure.

After some back and forth, Kit’s support team offered me a solution to my problem:

Turn on double-optin on all my optin forms. Their reasoning is that since I don’t have double optin enabled, “there is a huge chance that you have spam subscribers on your list which can negatively impact your email deliverability.”

For the record, my email deliverability seems to be fine, outside of the subscribers I can no longer send emails to because Kit has bounced them off my list.

In other words, Kit’s solution to my problem is no solution at all, at least to my mind.

So, as much as I am not thrilled with the prospect of switching email software again, I will do so.

But before I do, I’d like to find something that will prove adequate for a better period of time. Something that works well for sending daily emails… that has good deliverability… that is likely to be around in 3 or 5 years’ time because it’s backed by a serious business.

Can you help?

If you own or manage an email list, either for your own business or for a client, would you share with me what you use, and how happy or unhappy you are with it?

I normally ask people to reply directly to my emails with just an email of their own. But this time I’ve prepared a form to help me make sense of the replies. If that doesn’t turn you off, and if you would like to help me by sharing your own experiences, either good or bad, the link is below. Thanks in advance:

Sneaky guru model for getting the most out of a pool of prospects

by

If you’re the enterprising sort, here’s a direct-response recipe for getting the maximum value out of a pool of prospects:

1. Run a campaign featuring a guru who is promising an outcome, say, big stock market returns.

2. Make sales of your offer to people who respond to that campaign.

3. Take all the people who didn’t buy (or who bought once, but then canceled a subscription offer) and put in front of them another, entirely different-seeming offer, with a different guru, which actually makes the exact same promise as the offer in step 2.

4. Go back to step 2, and keep going back, with still another guru and another different-seeming offer, repeating until everyone has bought.

I once heard direct marketing expert Dan Kennedy talking about this sneaky multiple-guru model, which is actually very common among high-level direct response operators.

This strategy is obvious enough that in what behemoths like Agora are doing, but it happens in less obvious ways in many other businesses.

Some direct response businesses have low/mid/high variants of the same underlying product, all behind different brands that are impossible for prospects to see through.

Other businesses simply partner with related businesses who make the same promise but with a different feel, tone, or face to their message.

The point being, some people might not like you or your style. But if they’ve raised their hands to say they want the outcome you promise, that’s real value.

Sooner or later, somebody somewhere will sell these folks an offer to help them get that outcome. That somebody might as well be you, and that somewhere might as well be right here, right now, using the recipe above.

And with that, let me remind you one final time of the free training that email marketer Chris Orzechowski is putting on tomorrow, Monday, October 6, at 6pm CET/12 noon EST/9am PST.

Chris is gonna be sharing his “5 Steps To A Million Dollar List.”

I haven’t seen Chris’s training, but I do know his business model and his philosophy.

The fact is, it’s very similar to what I do, to what I preach in these emails, and to what I sell in my offers.

But — maybe you don’t want to hear this from me. Or maybe you have heard it from me, for a long time, and while you like hearing it, maybe it still hasn’t clicked, or hasn’t moved you to action.

In that case, Chris’s free training — and the 8-week coaching program he will be launching on the back of it in the coming weeks — might just be the fix.

If an email-based, flexible, profitable, and even fun business is an outcome you would raise your hand for, then here’s a free offer to help you get there:

Free training by million-dollar list owner

by

This Monday, October 6, at 6pm CET/12 noon EST/9am PST, Chris Orzechowski is putting on a training called “5 Steps To A Million Dollar List.”

In case you don’t know Chris, he himself is the owner of a million-dollar list. He’s built a 7-figure list-based business selling offers around copywriting and email marketing, both to copywriters and big ecom businesses.

For the record, Chris’s list is currently under 13k people.

A few years ago, back in 2021, Chris made $996k with a list of just 6k people. Business Insider wrote up a profile of him because of this.

All that’s to say, Chris knows what he’s talking about — and the stuff he’s talking about is doable for others too.

I haven’t seen Chris’s training yet, but I know his philosophy of email marketing. It’s to email daily, sending out emails pretty much like the one you’re reading now.

Chris is gonna be kicking off an 8-week coaching program in October, guiding a group of people who wanna build the kind of profitable list business he himself has.

Monday’s “Million Dollar List” training is gonna be a kind of appetizer for that.

Chris says it will be a deep dive into list growth and monetization strategies that have worked for him.

So if you attend Chris’s training on Monday, you might learn something valuable and lucrative, maybe something you apply to your own list and your own biz starting Tuesday morning.

And if you’re interested in getting outside help and guidance in building the same kind of lean, profitable, list-based business Chris has, then Monday’s training will also be a chance to see if Chris is the guy for you.

The hottest restaurant in France is its own best salesman

by

Yesterday, my friend Sam and I got into a rental car in Barcelona, drove across the Spanish-French border, and found our way into the small town of Narbonne.

There we met “Rebelpreneur” Gasper Crepinsek (whose ChatGPT Mastery I promoted earlier this year) and Gasper’s quite pregnant girlfriend Marie.

The four of us then got in line to be let into the “hottest restaurant in France,” Les Grands Buffets, which we had made reservations for many months earlier.

Like its name suggests, Les Grands Buffets is an all-you-can-eat circus. It only serves traditional French cuisine, and as much of it as you can stuff into yourself across 3 hours.

There was a “lobster waterfall,” oysters by the shovelful, and all the razor clams a body can handle.

There was suckling pig, beef, and lamb (all of which I had)… pressed-duck (which I didn’t)… and vol au vent, a pastry with veal sweatbreads (aka thymus glands, quite good).

There were $25 bottles of champagne that normally sell for twice the price at the supermarket.

At the end, this being France, there was of course cheese, in fact a selection from among 900 cheeses, which, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, is the world’s largest.

I also finished everything off with two trips to the dessert room, and loaded up on multiple slices of various chocolatey cakes, which I covered with a few macaroons as garnish.

By the end, our little group got kicked out because we stayed to the end and beyond.

At midnight, some 8 hours after the lunch, not having eaten anything else for the rest of the day, I went to bed. I honestly felt a bit queasy.

But it was worth it, and I would do it again. Actually, considering how long it takes to get a place at Les Grands Buffets, maybe I will book today for the next time. I could imagine that many other visitors feel and do the same.

And all that, is in spite of the fact that Les Grands Buffets is found in a third-tier city in an out-of-the-way region of France, in an ugly municipal building built in the 1980s that also houses a bowling alley and a pool, and has a skate park outside… and in spite of the fact that Les Grands Buffets effectively does no marketing.

That’s not to say that location is not important, or that marketing is worthless as a profession or a skill.

But even the best marketers know, in the words of the original A-list copywriter and scheme man, Claude Hopkins, that:

“The product, and the mental atmosphere you create around it, should be its own best salesman.”

And on that note, let me remind you of an unusual offer I made this week regarding my Copy Riddles program:

I’ll sell you the right to sell Copy Riddles yourself and keep all the money.

There are a lot of copywriting products out there in the world, but there aren’t a lot of great products.

Copy Riddles is one of the great products, both because of the results it delivers to customers (see my emails from yesterday and the day before for that), and because of the baked-in sellability of the course (see the sales page for that).

And now, if you like, you have the opportunity to sell Copy Riddles yourself.

If you have your own list, you can sell Copy Riddles to your list and keep all the money from every sale you make, from here till eternity.

If you want to create a little cold traffic funnel, and put some lower-ticket items up front, and then use Copy Riddles (a $1k course) as the “main course” that makes it likely your funnel is breakeven or better on day zero, you can do that — and keep all the money.

If you already have lower-ticket copywriting offers, and you want to put a proven higher-ticket upsell behind them, you can put Copy Riddles into your upsell flow — and keep all the money.

Or of course, if you are an enterprising guy or gal who is not afraid to reach out to others who have lists, cold traffic funnels, or offers that are in some way related to Copy Riddles, you can partner with them so they provide the flow while you provide a valuable new offer — and split the resulting money with them, however the two of you agree on it.

Along with the right to sell Copy Riddles and keep all the money you make, I will also provide you with the marketing that has sold this course for me in the past — emails, copy angles, social proof, and promo ideas that have worked.

If you’re interested, hit reply, and we can talk in more detail.

Sell a copywriting “mini-mentorship” in a box

by

A copywriter who recently finished my Copy Riddles program (not sure he wants me to share his name) wrote me a couple days ago and said:

===

I want to share a quick story, so you understand the true impact Copy Riddles has had on me.

I’ve been wanting mentorship for over a year to know I’m heading in the right direction, and getting better at what I do. It’s why I took an in-house copywriter role with the hopes of having a senior mentor me. Alas, after all the promises, I was just used to handle multiple roles.

So, I made the decision to quit, and do my own thing — properly this time. But in my last few weeks at the company, I came across you (through Parker Worth), and you know the story there, I shared it briefly on one of the calls.

But another reason I bought CR, was I hoped it would act as a “mini mentorship.” Now — 10 or 11 weeks later — I can tell you that CR delivered exactly that. The calls really helped put things in perspective. And it’s just refreshing to finally get what you’ve been searching for.

===

I have been selling Copy Riddles since 2021, and have had a good number of people go through the program.

I’ve had lots of nice testimonials come in about the quality and usefulness of Copy Riddles. And I’ve also had a few people, like the copywriter above, write in with greater praise, about how the course had some unexpected impact on their career.

I’m telling you all this because yesterday I made an unusual offer:

I’ll sell you the right to sell Copy Riddles yourself and keep all the money.

There are a lot of copywriting offers out there in the world, but there aren’t a lot of great offers.

Copy Riddles is one of the great offers, both because of the results it delivers to customers (see above), and because of the baked-in sellability of the course (see the sales page for that).

And now, if you like, you have the opportunity to sell Copy Riddles yourself.

If you have your own list, you can sell Copy Riddles to your list and keep all the money from every sale you make, from here till eternity.

Sell Copy Riddles yourself and keep all the money?

by

This morning, I got a message from “the largest copywriter in the Netherlands,” Robin Timmers. Robin writes:

===

Well, I’ve just finished Copy Riddles.

I have spent a lot of $$$ on copywriting training and books and programs and stuff…

But there is nothing like Copy Riddles.

Really.

I think the way you’ve designed the program is 10/10.

(Try/Write > Insight/Learn > Try/Write again > Increase copywriting IQ points > Repeat.)

The stuff you teach is 10/10, yet it is simple as hell to understand.

Even in the last bonus rounds, where most programs will probably have some throwaway-and-lame-insights to share, you’ve actually managed to give me an EUREKA moment by reminding me that, well … you want to write your bullets based on the market awareness and sophistication too.

For some reason I have never ever thought of that, yet it is a crazy good and persuasive thing to do.

Go figure.

I can honestly say that Copy Riddles is a must-have for anybody new to copywriting, or who already considers themselves, like I do, a good enough copywriter to earn good money with it.

I’ll 100% go through it again. 🙂

===

I’ve had a few other folks who just wrapped up Copy Riddles in the past week say good things about the experience.

I thought this would be the perfect time to run a little promo for Copy Riddles… except I remembered that during the last promo, back in July, I (wisely) announced I will not be running any more Copy Riddles promos this year.

Still, it’s a shame to let nice testimonials and case studies go to waste.

So rather than trying to sell you Copy Riddles, I want to see if you want to sell it yourself.

I tried doing this once before, a few years ago. I didn’t really know what I was doing back then, and so my idea got bogged down in indecision and uncertainty.

My offer today is basically this:

I’ll sell you the right to sell Copy Riddles yourself and keep all the money.

If you have your own list, you can sell Copy Riddles to your list and keep all the money from every sale you make, from here till eternity.

If you want to create a little cold traffic funnel, and put some lower-ticket items up front, and then use Copy Riddles (a $1k course) as the “main course” that makes it likely your funnel is breakeven or better on day zero, you can do that — and keep all the money.

If you already have lower-ticket copywriting offers, and you want to put a proven higher-ticket upsell behind them, you can put Copy Riddles into your upsell flow — and keep all the money.

Or of course, if you are an enterprising guy or gal who is not afraid to reach out to others who have lists, cold traffic funnels, or offers that are in some way related to Copy Riddles, you can partner with them so they provide the flow while you provide a valuable new offer — and split the resulting money with them, however the two of you agree on it.

Along with the right to sell Copy Riddles and keep all the money you make, I will also provide you with the marketing that has sold this course for me in the past — emails, copy angles, social proof, and promo ideas that have worked.

If you cannot persuade yourself to act however hard you try

by

This morning, a private detective I know here in Barcelona sent me a screenshot of a trending social media story:

“Couple Who Met On Dating App Rob Bank On First Date”

Can this really be true? I decided to do my own sleuthing.

It turns out yes, the story is roughly true, but with an important detail that’s missing in the headline above.

The man, Christopher Castillo, age 33, and the woman, Shelby Sampson, age 40, agreed to meet for a date.

Castillo asked Sampson to pick him up in her car. Once in the car, Castillo started drinking wine, presumably red. He then asked Sampson to pull over at a bank.

Castillo was gone for a few minutes. He came back sweating, wearing sunglasses and a hat (!), and holding an antique gun and a wad of cash.

He told Sampson to drive, which she did, for a bit, until the cops pulled them over and put the date to an end.

The crucial bit is that Sampson was not charged with anything, because, so the state believes, she had absolutely no knowledge of or participation in any criminal aspect of this first date.

This missing detail is what I found most interesting in the whole story.

I’ve never robbed a bank, but I imagine it’s hard.

The stock joke is that a typical man is unwilling to pull over and ask for directions while driving. Can you imagine how much more unwilling a typical man is to pull over, walk into a bank, hold up a gun, and ask for $1,000 in cash (and five years in prison, it turns out)?

No wonder Castillo was drinking in the car. And no wonder he felt he needed somebody “in his corner,” even if that was an unwitting and unwilling non-accomplice he had met on Tinder.

I found this interesting because, while I’ve never robbed a bank, I have done other, legal, things in my life. Some of these things I found personally very difficult to do, because they challenged my own identity.

There were times when no amount of auto-suggestion, willpower, or even red wine would push me over the threshold.

There were times when the only thing that would help me act would be having somebody “in my corner,” having a feeling of a home base I could come back to, even if that was somebody I had met minutes earlier and had no special relationship with.

I imagine this is all a bit waffly without specific examples. I might give those in another email.

My point today is simply that if you have something you know you should be doing (don’t rob a bank), but you cannot persuade yourself to do it no matter how you try, then having some kind of support or community of other people to rely on, however tenuous, can make all the difference.

Ideally, this is other people in real life. Real life seems to make a big difference.

But if you cannot find people in real life to act as a home base, then people online can sometimes act as a substitute. At least that’s the promise of online communities, groups, and memberships.

I am still keen on spinning up a new online community of my own, but I haven’t yet decided which (legal) things I would like to support people in doing.

While that’s going on, I can only recommend once again a community that I myself am part of, Travis Sago’s Royalty Ronin.

If you’re struggling to take the action needed to build your own audience… or to make deals with people who have an audience of their own… or to make your first $5k online… then you might find the support you need within Royalty Ronin. For more info:

Amazon ad apocalypse

by

Trouble in Bejako land:

My Amazon ad campaigns, which have been buoying up sales of my new 10 Commandments book, have cratered.

The background:

Since publishing my new 10 Commandments book back in May, I have reliably been selling 15-20 copies of the book per day.

A part of how I have been doing this is by running several Amazon ad campaigns in the background.

These campaigns have been working consistently for me. Until, of course, last week, when something shifted.

My campaign ad spend was no longer being spent, or even close to it. Ad cost per sale went way up. Most importantly, fewer books started being sold, just 5-10 per day, both via ads and organically.

I asked the universe why it’s doing this to me, and the universe came back with an answer.

“Amazon has changed its ad algorithm,” the universe told me.

It seems Amazon is now favoring “auto” ad campaigns (which I only had a small discovery budget for) and punishing “exact” campaigns (which was the bulk of my ad spend, because it got better results for cheaper).

I’m not sure what my point is, except maybe the old advice from sports marketer Jon Spoelstra:

“In almost any industry, the best role model is the high tech business. They can’t sit back and stop innovating. If they did, in three to six months they would be woefully behind.”

Amazon is innovating, and I fortunately am forced to innovate alongside them.

The fact is, email lists as a marketing tool provide a certain moat.

An email list is a free way to regularly communicate with dedicated, trusting readers and past customers, many of whom are ready and even eager to buy from you rather than others.

But an email list is only so much of a moat, and lulling yourself (like I often do) into thinking that an email list is a forever source of income, while sitting back and not innovating, will lead to woe.

In any case, I am adapting my Amazon ads strategy, and maybe I will get my book sales back up.

But also I want to get back to more active promotion of my new 10 Commandments book.

My initial idea for promoting this sucker was to get on podcasts. I put that on hold because 1) Amazon ads were working reliably until now and 2) finding podcasts to guest on is a pain.

But now it’s time to innovate. So can you do me a favor?

Do you listen to a podcast — about con men, or pickup, or magic, or sales, or hypnosis, or copywriting, or negotiation, or political propaganda, or comedy, or screenwriting — that you enjoy, and you think might enjoy having me as a guest to talk about the ideas inside my new 10 Commandments book?

If you do, hit reply and let me know. You’ll be doing me a favor.

And if you haven’t yet read my new 10 Commandments book, it deals with all those fields in a coherent and even interesting way. A few headlines from Amazon reviews:

#1. “This is going into my yearly reads collection”

#2. “A new favorite”

#3. “Sophisticated strategies behind the playful tone”

#4. “Instant Classic That’s Highly Entertaining”

#5. “This One’s Staying on My Desk!

#6. “More compelling than Cialdini with sprinkles of Houdini”

#7. “Superb lessons to be aware of”

Your own copy of my new 10 Commandment book is waiting patiently for you right now. If you’d like to claim it:

Not reading my email today is expensive

by

Yesterday, I promoted an offer called “Unstuck Sessions,” basically consult calls to help people overcome a challenge and get unstuck.

Like I wrote yesterday, that’s an offer that I first heard about from marketer Travis Sago.

I actually have a bit of swipe copy from Travis from when he promoted his own Unstuck Sessions.

An Unstuck Session by definition is pretty waffly and vague. How do you sell “getting unstuck”?

I looked at Travis’s copy. Here’s what caught my eye, from the second half of Travis’s email:

===

What’s it REALLY COSTING YOU to stay where you’re at?

(If you know all these answers, you probably aren’t stuck…LOL)

If you’re making $5k a month…and you want to making $10k…if my math is right…isn’t that a $5k a month problem? a $60k per year whopper of a problem…yeah?

And then…if I may be so bold?

What is the problem costing you in your enjoyment of life?

How much worrying are you doing now?

How much of life are you missing out on? 

I’m not trying to be a sadist.

It’s a courtesy “poke”.

Being stuck is expensive…emotionally, financially AND physically.

===

I happen to know Travis is a student of sales trainer Dave Sandler. And in Sandler’s book You Can’t Teach a Kid to Ride a Bike at a Seminar, Sandler writes:

“While you need to discuss the cost of your product or service, it’s more important to discuss the cost to your prospect if they do nothing.”

I read Sandler’s book multiple times.

I wrote down that line as a note to myself, and then transferred it to my “Library of Rare and Precious Ideas.”

And yet, this idea is something I only rarely and casually remember to apply in actual sales contexts, even though, as Sandler says, discussing the cost of doing nothing is more important than discussing the cost of your offer.

But Travis Sago doesn’t forget. And as you can see above, he actually puts this idea to use in his copy.

Lots of people read. Lots of people take notes.

But few put ideas into action.

And fewer still keep tweaking and fiddling with ideas-put-into-action until those ideas actually turn into big results.

Travis is one of those rare few.

That’s the reason why Travis is the #1 person I’ve been following and learning from for the past two years.

Actually I take that back. Travis is pretty much the only person, at least living person, in the space of marketing/copywriting/persuasion/online businesses, that I’ve been listening to and learning from.

This is also the reason why I keep promoting Travis’s Royalty Ronin membership.

As for the cost of Royalty Ronin:

Right now, you can get into Royalty Ronin for free, for 7 days, so you can test it out. After that, Ronin costs $299/month.

I guess I had to cover that. But the following is much more important:

If you are a copywriter who works with clients, then what is it costing you to not spot your client’s “trashcan assets”… or not know how to persuade your client to give you control of such asset… or how to monetize them?

In my experience, it can easily be costing you $10k this very month, and $200k feasibly over the course over the next year or two.

And if you have your own list, what is it costing you to keep “creating” new offers to put in front of your list, instead of “producing” new offers, the way Travis teaches?

Again, in my experience, it can easily be costing you hundreds of hours of unnecessary work in the coming weeks if you are working on creating a new offer.

To rub salt into the wound, it might also cost you $15k-$20k in foregone sales by the time you release that offer, both because you missed out on promoting other “produced” offers in the meantime, and because “created” offers often fail to sell as well as “produced” offers.

In other words, not being inside Royalty Ronin is expensive… in terms of time, stress, and money.

If you’d like to stop that, starting with a free trial:

My personal help

by

Yesterday, I hosted the final Q&A call for the last-ever live cohort of my Copy Riddles program. There were beers and tears involved (well, beers).

At the end of the call, I asked if anybody had any final comments or questions before we end. Shawn Cartwright, who runs the online martial arts school TCCII, spoke up to say:

“I really appreciate the comments and Q&A and the video. Will you consider doing an unlisted playlist so we can go back and take a look? It’s not just… I actually will go back and look at some of these.”

Like I told Shawn and the rest of the guys on the call, I definitely will create a playlist out of all the call recordings. And probably more.

The fact is, one of the reasons I did live Q&A calls for Copy Riddles is because people on such calls tend to ask good questions… and I tend to give good answers. And when I give a good answer to somebody else’s question, I often realize I am speaking to myself as much as to the person who asked the question.

My point is that we’re all talking about ourselves, all the time, regardless of what we appear to be saying on the surface.

That fact, if you choose to believe it, can be useful to you if you are listening to what your customers are saying, and if you want a better insight into who they are and what they want… and it can useful to you if you do like I do, and give advice to people, only to realize it’s advice you should be taking as well.

As I’ve heard marketer Sean D’Souza say, “If you wanna solve your own problems, go solve somebody else’s.”

Because of all this, I decided to bring back an offer I ran only ran once, last year, called Unstuck Sessions.

I got the idea for it from marketer Travis Sago.

In a nutshell:

If you’ve got a problem or a challenge, or if you’re stuck — in your financial situation, in your business, career, or life — maybe I can help you get unstuck?

I’ve long said that for a business owner, 60% of the value of bringing in a professional copywriter is the value of an outside perspective.

Something similar here.

The offer is, you and I get on a Zoom call and talk. I ask questions. You unburden yourself and vent. I spot and challenge assumptions you might not even realize you’re making.

The goal is to get you over your challenge and get you unstuck, ideally, in an easy and natural way, without having to simply grin and bear the pain of whatever you’re doing now until things change or get better or lighting strikes.

As for why you’d want me to help you get unstuck, I won’t try to convince you much there.

If you’ve been reading my emails, if you feel like I have knowledge or experience or simply a point of view that can be useful for you, then you’ll probably know if this is for you.

I’ll be doing four Unstuck Sessions over the next month. They will not be free, but will not be prohibitively expensive either.

If you’re interested, the first step is to hit reply and tell me who you are and in a sentence or two what you’re stuck with.

If it’s something I think I have anything meaningful and helpful to say, and if there are still any Unstuck Sessions left, we can the take it further. Thanks in advance.
