Do you respond to emails from subscribers?

Well, I know that I do. I might have missed one or two (or more), but most of the times I would write to those who writes to me.

Everytime when I blast out an email for my subscribers, I would anxiously wait for a reply from any of my subscribers. Maybe I’m stealing office time a bit, but I would keep refreshing the web page to see if I have new emails (I access my emails via a web-based interface in the office).

I don’t know — I just like it. Maybe it’s the same feeling like replying to fan mails. It makes you feel like a celebrity. Heck - I do feel like one. Maybe that’s why I enjoy this so much.

I remember in a webcast by Joe Vitale, he openly admitted the reason that he writes so much is that he wants to be admired and loved. And you know what — I can relate.

And of course, among others, seeing how people benefit from your help also gives you joy.

This morning, when I did an email blast, I got a reply from a subscriber telling how much he enjoys my emails. And he also mentioned that he rarely reply to an ezine but he did to mine. That’s just flattering.

Since I once spoke about my 6-month (now 7-month) old daughter, he too sent in some photos. And they are just adorable.

And at another time, I get an email from another subscriber. She asked me help with something. To cut long story short, she’s the one helping me out - :P. I asked her to review my latest sales letter and she gave a few insightful comments.

OK folks, that all the rambling this time.

All the best with your ezine.

    For those who have been subscribring to newsletters of self-proclaimed Internet Marketing gurus or sort, getting them to even reply you one word seems like a daunting task for them.

    There was once when I sent out a copy of my USD29.90 ebook for them as my complimentary gift but I just never heard a word “Thank you” or sort from them. :(

    Sigh..at times I wonder how they would write pretty mesmerizing attention-grabbing sales copy on their website begging for your email addresses and then bombard you with all sorts of money trickery or affiliate junk links afterwards.

    With all due respect, they are like literally trying to suck every penny out of your wallet.

    But for Kidino, I’ve never really failed to get a prompt reply from you of my emails. My thanks to your sincere help especially on the comment of my salescopy recently. Kudos to you pal!

    Best regards,
    Sunny Tan

    One of the criteria I use to decide what newletters I STAY with is whether they encourage communication and answer the emails I send.

    Not only do you respond, but you are willing to look at opportunities we mention even if you don’t find them right for you.

    With a fantastic product just released, I knew about right at prelaunch, and let you know because I thought it was something you would love just like me.

    My life fell apart due to illness in the family and I was offline for six weeks, and in dire straights financially, I am a newbie with technology, and many other gurus started promoting this product.

    But you Kidino could have joined the affilite program via much more famous people than me, cause I was unable to follow up at the time. Instead you used my link, as I was the first to tell you, and now both of us are making good income from it.

    The commissions from sales you have made paid my bills when I was desparate, you have a subscriber who will promote you for life, and I will be promoting your services at every opportunity!

    You have my vote for the coolest guy on the planet competition, as a real genuine inspiration!

    […] Here is a nice little blog post by Kidino at MoneyClicking. He brings up an importand point that I would like to expand on. Everytime when I blast out an email for my subscribers, I would anxiously wait for a reply from any of my subscribers. Maybe I’m stealing office time a bit, but I would keep refreshing the web page to see if I have new emails … I don’t know — I just like it. Maybe it’s the same feeling like replying to fan mails. It makes you feel like a celebrity. Heck - I do feel like one. Maybe that’s why I enjoy this so much. […]
