I had the most wonderful birthday and do not at all mind

aging if the rest can be half as terrific. Madison and I

had the best visit ever and the ONLY downer of the whole

period from Sunday dinner to pick her up until Tuesday

evening to drop her off WAS having to let go.

 

I know I should feel guilty but it tickles me to no end

to get reports that she often cries for and always ASKS

for Grandma though I can in all honesty say she has never

YET cried or even asked for Mommy or Daddy, lol. I am sure

the day will come <maybe> but for now, she is still as

infatuated with ME as I am with her. Oh, if all of life

could be so simple, wonderful and sweet.  :-)

 

Yesterday I sent out a solo. For whatever reason, the

optinlightning mailer had not delivered even my copy

four hours later so I sent it again. The software

froze up on the second mailing so I sent the solo

via solos@rimdigest.com and then, of course, the

earlier one came in right behind this one, grrrrrr.

 

I had 4 unsubs over this error and to those of you

who do understand glitches, etc. and know how to

just delete and go on with life, thanks so much

for staying. On the plus side, the solo was a

success.  :-)

Featured Article

 

 

Most important parts of a sales page

 

Copywriting is an art form all of its own within marketing.

There are many professionals who make large incomes from

purely on copywriting and doing nothing else. Big name

marketers will pay serious money for a copywriter who has

a proven track record of pulling in sales. The performance

of sales copy has nearly as many statistics as the NFL,

and no part of a sales letter has been analyzed more than

the headline. Top class copywriters will usually produce

many different headlines, select one which they believe

will perform best, and then test the others against it.

 

Often, even the most experienced copywriters are surprised

by the results, and the winning headline will become a new

control in further testing.

 

As well as the main headline, sub headlines are critical.

Often a busy reader will just skim a sales letter, and not

really read it in great detail. The sub headlines basically

need to convey the message of the entire letter, only in an

abbreviated form. Read a sales letter's sub headlines

without looking at the text in between, and see if you

receive the full meaning of the letter just from that.

If not, the sub headlines probably need working on.

 

Bullet points are another crucial part of a sales letter,

and they need to be short, sharp and to the point. They

also need to emphasize benefits to the reader, and not

features of the product alone. Potential buyers are

interested in how the product can improve their life,

what end benefits the product will deliver to them.

Nowhere is this concept more important than in the short,

dynamic bullet point that play such a key role in creating

excitement within the reader.

 

The end of a sales letter is also of great importance

because it is here that the sale is made. The letter

must have a top quality call to action to entice the

reader to part with his money. A good PS has also been

proven to increase response rates, if it is an effective

summary of the key benefits of the product.

Dear Jan,

 

I have been so worried about you! The last I heard is that

you were having PC problems and if that is true, you

probably won't get this. I haven't received a Rim Digest

newsletter since the first part of April and I noticed

you had no additions to the past archives section.

 

I think of you so often and pray that your current

problems will cease pronto!

 

Keep me posted

Faye

 

>> hi, Faye

 

oh, I am so sorry you were worried and I have not yet

missed getting an issue out tho have not added to the

archives in a couple of weeks. All is well here, my 54th

bday was yesterday and I have my beloved Madison as my

bday present, got her last night and get to keep her

til tomorrow night.

 

want me to forward the last issue or two?

and thanks SO much for caring and for your prayers,

they HAVE worked!

 

Jan <<

 

Amen!  You are A-OK even though you are one year OLDER!

So happy that you have your Madison with you...the age

of innocence...the best present anyone could hope to have!

 

Yes, please forward newsletters after April 3rd...don't

know why I am not getting them.

 

Continued prayers and best wishes friend!

 

Faye

Jan, today you sent this solo ad for 4 times!

Don't you think is too much?

 

On the other hand, one hour before receiving your 4th

ad I have UNSUBSCRIBED from your ezine using the link

http://www.rimdigest.com/optin/r.php3?e=myaddress you

provided in each of your messages EXCEPT for the below

one!

 

Can you explain why do you keep sending me the same ad

if I have unsubscribed and YOUR system confirmed that

I have been removed from your database?

 

This is unbelievable!

 

>>hello, A M

 

I am so sorry, someone is spamming my admin@rimdigest.com

mailbox with so far over 50,000 emails today and making

things that are supposed to come in and go out bounce

but I only SENT the solo once, with optinlightning

and when it had not gone out four hours later, or

even come to me, I sent it one more time with the

solos@ address- so at most anyone should have gotten

TWO copies, if that, one with the unsub box from

optinlightning and the other from my inbox.

 

I will unsub you myself and am very sorry.

 

Jan
