Sometimes I’m asked about my favorite email teachers.<\/p>\n
Who are they?<\/p>\n
How can one get on their list?<\/p>\n
And it’s amusing how many times people seem genuinely surprised when I don’t rattle off their favorite IM goo-roos. When they ask me “What about (fill in any big name goo-roo)??!!” my answer is always the same:<\/p>\n
Yeah, so what about them?<\/p>\n
Does that seem flippant?<\/p>\n
I suppose it is.<\/p>\n
But I almost always get my most profitable email marketing ideas from hardcore door-to-door or phone salesman, and very rarely from anyone online.<\/p>\n
Take, for example, guys like…<\/p>\n
And the list goes on…<\/p>\n
And even though some of these dudes are long deceased (and had never even heard of email) I usually am studying them and figuring out how to apply what they did\/do in face-to-face or phone sales to emails.<\/p>\n
True, not everything translates over.<\/p>\n
But a surprising amount of it does.<\/p>\n
And when I do learn something new, I’ll test it out, see if it works and then eventually share it with my “Email Players” newsletter subscribers.<\/p>\n
