Podcast ex-spurts scream bloody murder

Published: Tue, 02/16/16

Over the past 9 months (give or take) my podcast Producer Jonathan and I have been experimenting with how to combine the podcasting with email to jack up response on affiliate promos we run through the show.

And when I say “jack up” response, I ain’t just whistlin’ dixie.

Here’s the story:

It started off as a brain fart I had when I asked the esteemed Ken McCarthy (who is basically the “founding father” of Internet marketing as we all know it — yes, there was a time when you could fit all the people who thought you could actually sell on the Internet around a small table, and they were all considered the village idiots of Silicon Valley, and he was one of them) if I could interview him on the podcast about copywriting.

This was last July.

(Give or take a month).

And, I figured we could sell his copywriting course (one of my favorites) using a secret method that I (as far as I know, at least — I haven’t seen anyone else do it before we did) invented for monetizing a podcast using email.

The result?

We ended up getting $28 a click.

And, it was such a raging success considering our list dynamic and how hard of a sell Ken’s course was (very high ticket, and he’s not known as being a “rock star” or whatever to the bright shiny object chasers ninja-trick chasers) Ken asked if he could license my email sequence for his other affiliates so they, too, could sell a bunch of his courses.

Best part:

My method is ridiculously simple.

(I don’t do complex, I'll let the podcast ex-spurts do that.)

And, strange as it sounds, you don’t even need a podcast to my method. So, even if you don’t have a podcast, you can still profit like gangbusters from it.

Anyway, I ain’t giving this info away free.

But, I am teaching it to my “Email Players” subscribers.

And, specifically, I’m teaching it in the March issue next month.
