Welcome to the eighteenth edition of email marketing tips on June 19, 2009.
This is—as you know a revival—after I had kept the pause button pressed for a couple of month. I am curious to see how it goes.
Here is my brand new “Intro-Video”
Now, lets jump right into this edition with a quote that reminds us why growing an email list for your existing business or your startup venture is not such a bad idea.
Quote of the day
Legendary direct response copywriter Bob Bly wrote as a comment on his blog about a year ago:
“…I have over 50,000 subscribers to my e-newsletter with whom I communicate weekly via e-mail. In exchange, they send me between $4,000 to $10,000 a week to buy my information products. How much money do your 3,000 followers on Twitter, Facebook, and MySpace send you each week?
Also, networking is only of value depending where you are in your life and career. At this point in my career, I have much more work than I could ever hope to handle, and people know where to find me. So doing Twitter or whatever would be a waste of time better spent on projects I am writing for clients and publishers.” --bly.com, May 27th, 2008 at 8:24 am

Welcome to the sixteenth edition of email marketing tips on January 20, 2009.
The first edition of email marketing tips in 2009 is packed with information. I am not talking about the number of blog posts that I am featuring. No. I have thrown out almost all that got submitted. What's left is worthy of your attention and time. Lean back, read and enjoy.
At this time I am considering probably changing the schedule to one carnival every three weeks. We will see. I did not make up my mind on this so far. Only one fact remains unchallenged. I tend to keep the quality of this carnival up and will only give you noteworthy articles to read.
Already in 2008 I featured many articles that were not submitted by their authors but were rather found by myself on the internet. I see this trend might continue, because at least 85% of the submitted articles don't qualify according to my set quality standards.
“Less is more in that respect!”
I also will add more video to the blog in general and this carnival as well.

Welcome to the fifteenth edition of email marketing tips on December 12, 2008.
When I showed this carnival edition to my assistant Jennifer before I published it she said, “This is really a noteworthy issue for concluding the series this year.” Right, my friends, the year 2008 is almost over and I will take a break from this carnival for one month. You should take a break too and enjoy Christmas and New Years Eve with your family. Therefore, the next edition #16 will be published next year on Wednesday, January 14th, 2009. See you then after “Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.”
Today's categories are as follows:
Code Of Practice
Strategy
Email Marketing For Bloggers
Copywriting
Let's dive right into it. Aweber has some terrific tips for you. That's why I put this category to the front this time.
