Ho, ho, ho…<\/p>\n
If you want to do something on Christmas that:<\/p>\n
1. Will bond your list to you more (making them more likely to want to buy from you in future emails)<\/p>\n
2. Probably make you sales<\/p>\n
3. And give your list a chuckle<\/p>\n
(Which can put more coinage in your hot little pocketses)<\/p>\n
Then here’s all you do:<\/p>\n
Send your list an email on Christmas day.<\/p>\n
But, not just ANY email.<\/p>\n
What I want you to do is send them an email describing advice you are giving to Santa Clause giving advice about whatever it is you sell — just use your imagination.<\/p>\n
Yes, it’s kinda dorky.<\/p>\n
And no, it’s not going to make you a million dollars.<\/p>\n
But it MIGHT get you some sales.<\/p>\n
It MIGHT make your list look forward to more emails.<\/p>\n
And it MIGHT even make ’em laugh.<\/p>\n
(As Dan Kennedy has wisely said: “People buy more and buy more happily when in good humor.”<\/em>)<\/p>\n What???<\/p>\n You don’t know how?<\/p>\n You have no idea how to begin such an email?<\/p>\n OK, relax!<\/p>\n I’m going to give you a template.

\ndo too!) but I HAVE to tell you about this crazy little guy who
\nshowed up at my door tonight.<\/p>\n
\nApparently, Santa is getting older and slower, and he’s concerned
\nabout his weight now. He is worried about having heart problems and
\ndoesn’t want to drop dead one day while carrying presents to kids
\ndue to his weight.<\/p>\n
\nbringing him more meat, beans and protein, instead of white carbs
\nlike bread, etc.<\/p>\n
\nof milk, ignore it! And instead, leave a note next to them saying
\nnext year he’d prefer to be left fruit or maybe some meat and
\ncheese, instead.<\/p>\n
\n_____ program instead, that’s fine:<\/p>\n
\nRussian “super soldier” who wanted a way to get in shape quickly.<\/p>\n
\nerrands, I told the messenger to tell Santa to get his blubber butt
\noutside and walk through the snow, it’s great for his heart and
\nbody.<\/p>\n
\nconsiderable stomach down, too, because he’ll be forced to roll up
\nhis sleeves and do more work.<\/p>\n
