Email Marketing Tips

HereNextYear Announces New Product Launch Coming Thursday July 29

There are three simple concepts to using the Internet to get more leads or sales for your business and to make more money online. No matter what products have been launched over the past year or what social networks have sprung up, the same three concepts haven’t changed. We figured with all the hoopla going on right now in the Internet marketing world, it was perfect timing to unveil our new educational manual for accomplishing those three tasks, which are:

1) Converting those who visit your website or interact with you somewhere else on the web to taking action with you

2) Enabling yourself to be not just “found” or “stumbled upon” but ever present

3) Maximizing your sales potential by either making or creating something to sell on your own or promoting someone else’s product.

Internet Marketing Workshop June 24th Featuring Marty Dickinson with HereNextYear and Zakary Barron with Constant Contact

Last month (May 2010), I partnered with Zakary Barron of Constant Contact to offer a 3-hour workshop. He talked about email marketing, of course, and I taught WordPress, web video, blogging, social networking, and article marketing. We called the event “Profit Again in 2010.”

In one week worth of promotion, we packed a room of more than 100 people and we had 40 more on a waiting list. We just couldn’t fit any more into the room.

So, we’re doing it again! And, it won’t cost you a cent to attend.

This one-day-only event will be from 9am to noon on Thursday, June 24 at the Red Lion Hotel in Aurora Colorado, just off I-225 at the Parker Road exit.

Our room will only hold 125 and, as last time, it’s sure to fill up fast, so register now or copy and paste this link into your browser: http://tinyurl.com/29qr8tf

Be Careful of Twitter Email Attack

If you get an email in your inbox from “Support Engineer” with an @Twitter.com email address and a subject line of “Ticket #040″ or something similar, do NOT open the email. Just discard it. I’m usually quick to catch these viruses, because there are usually 10 of them sent to me at a time with different from names. Easy to spot. But, this one looked legit…Good going loser hackers! Anyway, just wanted to post a warning about it.
