You may already know that the best email marketing strategy and most effective way to generate revenue is to build an opt-in list. By offering a free product or e-book and giving it away in order to collect email addresses, this will enable you to promote other, more expensive products to the people on that list. The main goal is to get your subscribers to the point where they trust you since you have already sold them something of value. This will mean that they will be more likely to buy products from you in the future when you send them an offer.

It is vitally important to understand that just because someone gives you their e-mail address it does not mean that they actually want you to send them an email every day. It is much better to send less frequent emails full of really great and useful content than it is to send out lots of e-mails containing useless information.

If you sell a particular product or service, ensure that you send more than just product and service promotions that make you money, to your subscribers. The more useful the information that you send, the more likely they will be to buy the things that you do want to sell. You already know from the initial subscription process that giving away free information and other useful tips proves that you actually just want to help them and not just improve your bottom line. You may ask, if I can’t send a lot of promotional emails to my subscriber list then how am I going to generate profit? Create a newsletter. Get your subscribers to sign up for your newsletter and then address it as exactly that. This lets you do with a single email that would probably take you a number of emails to accomplish. Your subscribers will be less likely to unsubscribe from a newsletter than from a listing that just sends out a typical promotional e-mail messages all the time.

Do not ever email anything to anybody that you would not want to find in your own e-mail box. If you practice this basic piece of good sense, you should be in a position to experience great results through your email marketing.
