Lately I’ve been hearing from more and more ankle-biters.
Whether it’s Internet marketing teachers who think I’m the devil for proving the dangers of being a slave to open rates instead of tracking to the sale (it’s hard to imagine anyone being against tracking to the sale, but in their defense, there’s probably a lot of money in making things complicated)… To seething goo-roo fanboys who “hulk out” at the letter by my Intellectual Property attorney linked to at the bottom of each email… To your garden variety butt hurt readers who get heartburn when I won’t be their pen pal or give them all my time, knowledge, and ideas for free.
I’m attracting quite a gaggle of ankle-biters.
And yet, my profitability has never been higher.
Coincidence?
I say thee nay.
‘taint no coincidence at all.
It’s completely planned.
Wholly deliberate.
And, something I’ll be ramping up even MORE in 2015.
Anyway, why am I telling you this?
Because if you don’t have at least a few ankle-biters hiding behind their computers lobbing insults and threats (I sometimes get those, too — which is always amusing) at you, or making lame personal attacks… then it’s time to try harder.
Get them ankle-biters nipping.
Get them yipping.
And then, get them tripping.
(Over their own lack of substance).
Chances are, the louder they yip, the more scratch you’re making.
Just remember the old adage:
“A lion doesn’t lose sleep over the opinion of sheep.”
Because that’s what people who ankle-bite behave like:
Sheep.
(Otherwise, they wouldn’t waste their time ankle-biting.)
Baaaaa.
Anyway, if you want to ramp up sales (and the ankle-biters’ ire) even more, check out the “Email Players” newsletter.
Using my ways can be hair-raising at times.
But, it’s also lots of fun.
And, yes, profitable to boot.
