Strangely enough, sometimes the best way to see whether your email marketing campaign is doing well or not is to do some internal testing. Just for a moment, you can disregard what your metrics and analytics tell you and put the changes you want to make out to your subscribers directly.
But, first, let’s figure out how to set up testing so that it provides you with honest-to-goodness results.
- Pull 100 random email addresses from your list
- Divide them into two separate groups
- Only test one change at a time
- Set one group as the control (what you’re already doing) and the other as the change
- Monitor the results
- Request feedback through directed surveys about which your subscribers prefer
We’re going to look at 4 of the most common places that marketers like to update in their emails and walk you through how to do it.

Planning for email marketing strategies is like producing a film or movie. There are many “production stages” involved.
In filmmaking, you can’t just grab a video recorder and shoot scenes right away. You need to follow a timeline that will allow you to take care of the many aspects and requirements of the project.

If film making has pre-production, production, and post-production stages, so does email marketing. You need to make sure to adhere diligently to these three stages so you won’t miss anything.

Yes! You really cannot make any money online and I’m not scared to say it and in case you thought that was a mistake please read it again… I said “You can’t make any money online”.
Let me put this clear to you, if you think you can just go online or just buy those e-books or videos from those self acclaimed internet business gurus and just start having money sent into your bank account then you had better wake up from your dream.
Also don’t think you can make money online by opening a PayPal account or make money by reading eBooks that teaches you fast ways to make money online.
Some other people think they can just design a website or create a blog and start making money from the internet in few days.
I know many bloggers are scared to admit this fact but I’m telling you the truth: “You really might never make any money online all your life time”.

When I was stuck in a full-time day job with seemingly no end in sight, I desperately wanted to create a full-time income online so that I could purchase my freedom.
I wanted nothing more than to check my daily online income and see $100 dollars or more, each and every day.
I wanted the ability to work on my online businesses at my leisure, without being forced to work every day in a job I did not enjoy.
I finally learned how other Internet marketers were achieving significant growth online, and I vowed to follow their example and create my own success.
