Are you making this fatal marketing mistake?

Dear ETR Reader, Some business owners and marketers just don't get it. Their marketing plan for the month looks like they got carried away with their PC's cut and paste function ... Day 1 ... blast marketing e-mail. Day 2 ... blast marketing e-mail. Day 3 ... blast marketing e-mail. Day 4 ... blast marketing e-mail. Day 5 ... well, you get the picture. They bombard their file, telling them to buy, buy, buy - and then they scratch their heads in confusion when their prospects and customers beat a path to the opt-out link. Clayton Makepeace says there's a better way. In fact, he's been running wildly successful promotions without sending a single marketing e-mail during the first two weeks of the campaign. Not a one. Sounds nuts, but Clayton's been in the direct marketing business for 37 years - and he's created sales copy and promotions that have generated over $1.5 billion in sales for his clients. Oh - and did I mention? While most marketers struggled with falling response in 2009, it was Clayton's most profitable year ever! These campaigns generate tens of millions of dollars in revenue for his clients - and they explode their lists with new prospects and customers. Michael Masterson saw Clayton present his unique online marketing strategy at ETR's Info Marketing Bootcamp this past November, and he was amazed ... "I've been teaching marketers marketing for 30 years. So it is not too often that I take notes when I hear someone speaking. At this year's boot camp Clayton laid out the strategy he's been using to make himeslf and his clients a financial killing this year. Honestly, I was blown away. I found myself scribbling notes on my cocktail napkin. Afterwards I got together the folks at ETR, threw the napkin at them and said, 'This is our game plan for 2010!'" - Michael Masterson, Founder Early to Rise Clayton swears it will work for any business - even yours.
