How to increase your opt ins and mailing list if you have an ecommerce site.

Retailers are constantly up against pricing pressures in the PPC arena, from their customers AND their suppliers. One of the great equalizers is if you have a big mailing list. When you have a big email list and you can keep your existing customers engaged, it gives you a real ROI boost. So how do you get there?

Here’s a couple ways to increase your opt ins:

1) Use the footer ad like we have here at

You can set it so that only new visitors see it and returning visitors don’t so that it doesn’t get annoying to your regular shoppers.

2) Put an opt in box on the top right hand corner of every page. You shouldn’t take up as much real estate as the free report at http://www.etycoon.net/ but it is the same idea. Bribe people for their email by offering something of value that your customers would want.

You do talk to your customers right? Ask them. Here’s a few

  1. Get access to unpublished sales. Sign up here.
  2. Vip club- Get access to special services and discounts. Sign up here
  3. How to keep your [whatever you sell} looking like new- Free Ebook. Download here.

If you look at the site at etycoon.net all he does is email them a pdf, but he made it look like a book cover/DVD case so it has a higher percieved value.

You know your customers better than us, and if you spend time on the phone with them, just ask them what would have gotten them to sign up for your email list on the site, and if they didn’t, exactly why not. You might be surprised what you  find out.

But basically, to get people to opt in you have to ask them to opt in, and you have to bribe them with something they would have a high percieved value. And after they are on the list, you have to treat them well with a steady stream of good content, not just ads and sale notices.

3) One last thing, you can check out http://www.blair.com/ for another simpler way to implement this in a more retail context. Look at the bar on the top right. Small amount of real estate used, probably works pretty good.

Hope this gives you some ideas,

And of course, call us at (800) 920-1985 if you want real no nonsense marketing help from us.

Best regards,

Steve

  10. What’s up colleagues, how is the whole thing, and what you wish for
    to say on the topic of this post, in my view its truly remarkable in support of
    me.

  11. Hey I am so grateful I found your website, I really found you
    by error, while I was searching on Askjeeve for
    something else, Nonetheless I am here now and would just
    like to say thank you for a remarkable post and a all
    round interesting blog (I also love the theme/design), I don’t have time to go through it all at the moment but I have book-marked it and also included your RSS
    feeds, so when I have time I will be back to read more, Please
    do keep up the fantastic work.

  13. Why are you ready to shell out the following two a long time doing
    the job every out there minute to make your e-commerce internet site a good results?

    Most likely you are performing a nine-to-5 work that no more time excites you.

    Maybe you happen to be a short while ago retired and starting
    a next job as an entrepreneur. You could be a keep-at-house mother hunting to dietary supplement the family earnings or
    most likely you’ve got shed your work in a challenging
    financial state and are wanting to strike out on your own.

    Whichever the predicament, you will need to be practical about the trajectory of your e-commerce venture.
    Rome was not created in a day and though there are loads of facts solutions
    out there that pretty much assurance you tens of countless numbers of pounds at the press of a button, which is
    not how the genuine environment performs.

    It normally takes time to build and increase your enterprise.
    A person at the time advised me that you have
    the alternative of doing the job 8 several hours a day for another person else or sixteen hrs
    a day for your self. Which is about suitable. Seems challenging, suitable?
    There you go all over again Captain Buzzkill.

    It is complicated. It can also be immensely rewarding
    and pleasurable. The journey to results as an on the internet retailer demands dedication and persistence.

    It truly is not a interest and if you deal with it
    as these types of, you will only earn “passion” cash.

    If you are in a hard fiscal condition, now may well not be the time to get started your on line business.
    Launching an e-commerce site requires a economic investment decision.
    That investment decision is not nearly as substantial
    as opening a brick-and-mortar keep, but you are not able to get commenced without becoming equipped to devote some cash on your small business.

    Above the last five decades, I have been a member of a variety
    of various e-commerce and internet promoting boards.
    I’ve long gone from the person who asks a great
    deal of inquiries to the 1 who solutions them. The factor
    that bums me out the most is when I browse a article like this:

    “Hey most people, manufacturer new to the discussion board. I have lost my career and do not have any price savings so I need to have to make funds speedy. Can any person tell me what I must promote so I can get out of this money hole?”

    Yikes. He is in for a impolite awakening. You just won’t be able to begin a company
    in desperation method. Extra than likely, you will stop up even a lot more annoyed and
    desperate. I’m certain there are a number of exceptions to the rule out there,
    but by-and-massive you’ve got received to be ready to run from a
    solid monetary foundation to launch a productive business.

    So be genuine with yourself about no matter whether you are in a position to make the monetary determination important to get your startup off the floor, even if the expenditure is a modest
    a single.
