This is my first post since switching my lists over to
WizardResponder last night.

I’ll tell you about what I did wrong in a mo…
And I’ve included a freebie to make up for
any repeated emails my subscribers may get :)

But first – the topic of the week!…

—–

* No Traffic Fusion For Me..

I take you may have noticed that the topic of the
week is Mike Filsaimes, Traffic Fusion?

I’ve already lost count of the number of emails I’ve had
already, and all insisting how much I need the product!

So why am I not bothering?

Well I only know how to be straight – so that’s how
I’ll tell it…
Firstly - I do want to say I am in no way guru bashing!
(In fact the whole package is awesome…
IF you were wanting those products anyway!)

Mike Filsaime is one heck of a marketer, and I’m sure his
new software will be of fantastic benefit to some people.

Why – because they already have some established contacts
to make the most of this software.

Mike teaches in his video warm up the principles of
integration marketing…
From his Coke in McDonalds video right through the small
series of them.
And it’s all good stuff!

So the idea of the software is that it will allow you to
keep track of offers you get placed on other peoples
download pages.

You actually control them, so you can split test make
alterations, basically anything you want to make maximum
extra conversions from them.

Well that is great if you have a little black book filled
with guru names of people who have multiple sales per day
from their massive mailing lists….

But what about the ordinary guy?
What if you only know a few marketers who sell a few
products daily?

Will you really get value from this high ticket software?

It could be said that it’s up to you to go out and find
people to have your ads on their pages… but come on…

When Mike sells out, as I’m sure he will, there will be
2000 people all wanting their ads on the big names pages!

Do you think it’s likely that the little guy will get a
look in?

I would guess not.

Yep – you could gain forum access to another bunch of folks
who may or may not sell the odd product….
But would it really get you enough partners to make back your cash?
Or will the usual rules of everyone wanting a deal with the big boys
keep the small marketer out of the loop?

Hence – I’ll stick to what I do already.
And if I want to spend a large chunk of change, I know
a good few other ways I could spend it to get me more sales.

I have no doubt that the software is great, And I’d bet
that there will be a bonus fest going on with marketers
scrambling all over trying to make the big commissions
available from promoting the software.

But again… do I really have the time to grab all the bonuses
and put them to use?
I would doubt that too….

So for me – I’ll pass.

That said - you need to make your own decision, based on
youir own circumstances.

If the bonuses offered by some add up to more value than the
software for you – it may be worth considering.

Or if you happen to know a handful of high traffic sites who
would love to show your offers…great!

I’m just telling you why I won’t be bothering.
And as I’m not getting it or able to say “Look it’s made
me $XXXXXXX” – then I won’t be asking you to buy it from
my link. (So it’s not even mentioned – and yes I do have one)

What I would suggest if you’re going to grab it… would be to
ask whomever you’re considering buying it through if they make
multiple sales a day – and if they are prepared to show your ads!

That might be a better deal than the mega bonuses they are giving?

Enough Said.

* Mailing lists all moved “Nearly” broke it :)

Back to my own product launch …hehe

(It’s a must have, must get it now, can’t live
without it, every guru on the planet is about to
tell you… OK – I’m fibbing… but only about the gurus)

LOL

Seriously, I wanted to let you know that I did mess up just a bit.

I sent my last email from my old autoresponder saying to
look out for one about my freebies all being on one page.

Unfortunately I forgot that with some of my list that
message is around number 4 or 5… DOH!

So for those that haven’t received it yet…
there’s a link in your email version of this post:

Other than that mess up – I only nearly broke things!
And that was due to a work book in excel looking exactly
the same to be as a CSV file ?

So when I tried to import my lists – WizardResponder
wasn’t having any of it.

I was beginning to think me and my techie inability
were holding me back as usual… or worse - that I had
broken it and Pete would be gunning for me.

However – I did then watch Pete’s Videos … and all
went smoothly.

(note to self – stop doing stuff before reading
instructions)

I guess it’s like building flat pack… you always
have a go first don’t you,  – then when you’re staring
at the 5 spare parts you refer to the instructions to
see where they should have gone….lol

Anyway – it’s done and what a relief I felt….
I guess the fear of what could go wrong is far worse
that if it actually does… as most things are fixable.

Nevertheless we still worry don’t we?

All that said – I’m delighted to say that barring the csv
mix up – WizardResponder really is extremely newbie and
technophobe friendly.

And I’m now getting excited at the prospect of finally
launching it officially Wednesday 17th 2pm (EST) 7pm UK time.

As mentioned yesterday – do take a look
And please do promote it to people you may know who want
top quality service at  budget prices!

It’s actually nice to feel excited about it again being honest.
After 5 months of working on it and all the hassle involved
ensuring the highest possible delivery rates… it felt like we
would never get there at times.

In fact here are some interesting facts for anyone who asks
about delivery rates:

So as you can see – we really have ensured that we are
both affordable and newbie friendly as well as being a
fully featured high quality service.

I look forward to welcoming any new members and seeing
your lists grow with WizardResponder.

* A List Building Freebie For You (With Rights)

Finally – I thought I’d add a freebie for you to download.

This is my way of apologising to anyone on my lists who ends up
getting the same messages twice after the move.

I didn’t want any new people to miss any good stuff
So I figured others wouldn’t mind deleting an occasional repeat :)

Here the direct download link to grab
Optin List Building For Beginners
With rights – so make the most of it both ways :)

    Hi Randy,

    Very best of luck with this one.

    It’s an A-class service at a very (very) reasonable price – so all else being equal it really should be an extreme success.

    I really look forward to seeing how it all turns out. (And I know for a fact that I’m going to enjoy being a Wizard subscriber).

    Yours
    Morten
