Digg it UP - E-mail Protocol - 12 Simple Rules to Stay Connected
Why do I choose digital products? To earn a huge income from internet you need a system, or group of Systems that work together to automate your business. The function of this System is to sell a digital product or products. If you are selling hard products, you can adapt this to your purpose, but I'll be focusing only on digital products such as ebook, software, Web Site Memberships, eZine Subscriptions, Internet Advertising, Marketing Tools, Web and Hosting and anything else that can be sold and delivered over the Internet. There are so many advantages to selling digital products that I don't know where to begin. The main reason is that with a digital product, you can completely automate yo
As a rule, always wait at least 24 hours before responding to a heated e-mail. This is often enough time to cool off and think clearly. Reread the message and ask yourself if you misinterpreted the e-mail. If so, at least now you can hit “delete” instead of “send.” Remember to always communicate with integrity and respect.
Rule #6 – Avoid writing in all caps. Text written in all caps is hard on the eyes and is difficult to read. More importantly, all caps in an e-mail SCR
There are two types of marketing: unsolicited e-mail (cold selling) and opt-in selling. Keep them in mind when you create your messages and build your subscriber list. I highly recommend you not to engage in cold selling. This is considered spam. If enough people report your address as spam, you will be banned from ISPs and search engines. The occasional sale you see from cold selling will not be enough to compensate for your being blacklisted on the internet.On the other hand, building an opt-in list is a perfectly acceptable and highly successful method that will keep you from being labeled bad business. With an opt-in list, people ask to be added to your subscriber database because they're interested
Rule #1 – Be concise. Follow the KISS rule (keep it short and sweet). Get to the point in a clear manner. Keep paragraphs short - three or four sentences at most. If you find you need to send an e-mail that is longer than a few short paragraphs, revise the message or consider picking up the phone or paying a personal visit instead.
Rule #2 – Watch your words. Before sending any e-mail, check your message. Ask yourself, “What is my purpose for sending this e-mail?” Anger, enthusiasm, and anxiousness are all emotions that can trigger an itch only an immediate heated reply can scratch. Always consciously choose your words and be sure every communiqu? accurately and clearly conveys your message. Be careful about what you say and how you say it because your words can come back to haunt you. Words, especially the written word, can live and be remembered forever. Don’t say something in the heat of the moment that you can’t take back.
Rule #3 – Follow a format. Every correspondence you send is a reflection of you and your organization. Therefore, at a minimum, each e-mail needs to have these elements – a greeting, a skipped line before and after each paragraph, a closing or call for action, and a signature (which identifies you and provides alternate ways to contact you).
Rule #4 – Spell check. While spell check can accurately check for misspellings, it won’t recognize all errors. Before you hit the send button, check every e-mail for spelling, punctuation, and grammar. An e-mail filled with multiple errors is not only difficult to read and understand; it tests the patience of the recipient, who may decide your message has no value and simply is not worth reading.
Rule #5 – Send messages to your outbox first. Disable the “auto send” feature in your e-mail software and, instead, have messages sent to the “outbox” first. This gives you a second chance to review your e-mail for content and intent. If your e-mail is a reply, you will now be able to reread the original message to be sure you didn’t misunderstand the message. When in doubt, seek clarification before responding.
As a rule, always wait at least 24 hours before responding to a heated e-mail. This is often enough time to cool off and think clearly. Reread the message and ask yourself if you misinterpreted the e-mail. If so, at least now you can hit “delete” instead of “send.” Remember to always communicate with integrity and respect.

When I was approached by the frantic owner of a failing business in 1995, we stood back and rationally analyzed the situation. By leveraging the Hidden Assets in the business, getting rid of unproductive staff and refocusing, we turned the corner and the business is still flourishing today.You know that, when a business is in trouble, logic often flies out of the nearest cracked window and emotional choices rule the day. Yet this is could be an opportunity for you and the owners to benefit. Instead of simply closing the doors and selling off the inventory and equipment on a fire sale, look for the Hidden Assets in the business – a sales team, intellectual property, customer database, unfulfilled orders, access to

Although businesses of all sizes continue to recognize the value of customer relationship management and thus invest in CRM software solutions there are still a great deal of misinformation resulting in companies choosing not to invest in CRM. It’s time to debunk the CRM Myths. CRM Is To Complicated To Use Many staff feel this way so they make little effort to understand the software and how to use it. They don’t recognize how it will benefit their performance and work load. If your staff doesn’t understand how to use the CRM software they will become impatient when they don’t see instant results. The CRM software is not complicated to use. Like anything new staff just needs training to

The best advice I can give you for writing successful fundraising letters is to act as if your donors are obese. Really obese.Imagine, for example, that they struggle with their weight every single day. Imagine that they hate the way they look. Imagine that they want nothing more than to lose weight and look fabulous.Now imagine that you have the weight-loss program that your donors need to shed those unsightly pounds and return to the weight and energy level they crave.But how are you going to persuade your donors that you have the weight-loss solution they need?With amazing before-and-after pictures.You know the kind I mean. You see them on the covers of the magazines at the supermar

Entrepreneurs of the 21st century are finding better solutions to help them be ‘on’ their business and not ‘in’ their business. It was only a few short years ago that many entrepreneurs spent the majority of their working days making random cold calls and follow up calls to prospects and customers. This can be quite time consuming especially if you have a healthy customer base.The online automated marketing system makes it possible for internet marketers to market their businesses without feeling like a telemarketer. The online automated marketing system helps to boost sales which mean it helps boost revenue. In addition to boosting sales and revenue, it helps internet marketers to gain new loyal custo

Reread the message and ask yourself if you misinterpreted the e-mail. If so, at least now you can hit “delete” instead of “send.” Remember to always communicate with integrity and respect.
Rule #6 – Avoid writing in all caps. Text written in all caps is hard on the eyes and is difficult to read. More importantly, all caps in an e-mail SCREAMS at the reader. Better to write in upper and lower case. If you need to draw attention to a word, consider using bold or italics for the emphasis.
Rule #7 – Reply to all sparingly. When you respond to a mass e-mail (a message sent to multiple recipients), determine whether everyone listed needs to receive your reply. If a reply to the sender only is sufficient and appropriate, hit the “reply” vs. the “reply to all” button to cut down on multiple and unnecessary mail.
Rule #8 – Stay current. Just like voice mail, be sure to keep your auto-reply message up-to-date. An outdated auto- reply is as bad as dated voice mail – information that serves no purpose.
Rule #9– Office e-mail is never personal. Unless you own the company, any e-mail sent via your office computer is the property of the employer and is subject to their purview. There is no such thing as personal e-mail at work. Be aware and watch what you say because every message represents you and the organization.
Rule #10 – Stay organized. Attempting to save every e-mail creates clutter. Get in the habit of saving only necessary e- mails and discarding the rest. Be sure to delete messages from your inbox, deleted, and sent message boxes. This will cut down on the clutter and free up much needed computer space. Review periodically so you don’t feel overwhelmed at the sight of months’ or years’ worth of messages. If your box is full right now, commit to reviewing at least 15 messages from each box daily until you are all caught up. Also, be sure to regularly back up all mail boxes, just in case.
Rule #11 – Answer e-mail. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve sent an e-mail requesting specific information only to receive a reply with half, if any, of my questions answered. This now requires sending a second message to get the necessary answers. When responding to an e-mail with multiple questions, type your response right next to the questions in a different color font than the original message. This clearly shows your reply and enables the reader to easily match the response to a question and ensures you have answered all of the sender’s questions.
Rule #12 – Be patient. With the proliferation of text messaging, PDAs, and Blackberrys, many people send an e- mail and expect an on the spot response within moments of a message being sent. It’s unr
