This email contains nothing but shameless self propping

Proof?
When selling Brian Kurtz’s excellent Titans Of Direct Response product I had the second most sales, but highest conversions (beating out some pretty hefty names to boot -- including GKIC). When selling Ryan Levesque’s original Survey Funnel product a few years ago I beat all his other affiliates in conversions (again, many big names) without even breaking a sweat. When selling Danny Iny’s magnificent product for creating online courses, he said I did “over double what our average partner does... which is already pretty good. So damn, buddy!” Ken McCarthy said I did $28 per click when selling his copywriting course. Then there’s Ray Higdon, Michael Senoff, Sean D’Souza, the late Scott Haines, and probably a bunch others I am forgetting.
And lest you think:
“Oh Ben that’s nice, but what about *outside* your usual niche?”
Okay, smart ass, there’s also Shaun H. (I don’t know he wants me to use his name publicly) one of the highest selling affiliates in the hyper competitive weight loss niche — who (after sending him some emails to use that I had used in the weight loss niche before I sold my share in that company, and, thus, no longer needed it):
“Dude...This email put us in 1st place on this launch and doubled our sales on day 2. unheard of in our industry. SICK :) happy to do a testimonial and/or case study to help you out any way I can… btw... all the big guys are blown away that were only sending 1x per day...hitting unopens in the afternoon and crushing them on salezzz.... They're all sending 2-3x per day and they still can't keep up. BOOYA! appreciate you Ben!”
Before I move on from this self-love marathon:
I have one (actually two) more testimonials.
Both are from Ryan Levesque who I mentioned above.
After selling his product (again, against some very big name IM’ers) he said (note my list was pretty small at that time, well under 10k people, and I sent less than half the emails I usually send, due to being burned out at the time):
“We did: 103 sales. $20,291. BOOM. How’s THAT for a finish. Seriously - that’s by FAR the best “last day” I've ever done. We literally doubled sales. Nice freakin’ work, man.$20K weekend. Best conversion rate so far (as measured like I described.)”
Then, he sent me an “official” testimonial to elaborate more:
“Ben promoted one of my information products to his list as an affiliate. Even though his list is smaller than some of the bigger “gooroos” who promoted the product... Ben had the highest conversion rate among all affiliates to date. Prior to Ben promoting the highest conversion rate (sales vs. webinar registrants) was 21.6%. Ben blew that number out of the freakin’ water with a 28.6% conversion rate (32% better) - and 50% of those sales came on the LAST DAY when Ben sent not one... not two... but THREE emails to his list. (Heresy!) So in other words - all that stuff Ben teaches about mailing OFTEN.... mailing MORE than you might think is prudent... and using a TONE that might make you feel uncomfortable? It works. I’ve seen the numbers first hand. Ben generated over $20,685 in affiliate sales for me using what he teaches - and he did those numbers in a single weekend! The man knows what he’s talking about - and more importantly, he
practices what he preaches.”
All right, enough self-propping for my dark soul.
I ain’t just telling you just to brag or whistle dixie.
No, there’s a purpose to it:
In the upcoming September “Email Players” issue, I open the dark gates and lower the draw bridge over the fiery mote to my email lair, and show you:
1. A sequence of last day emails for a promo I did back in June.
(That kicked gluteus assimus).
As Ryan’s first testimonial said, the last day is the day where most of the sales come. And, it’s because of how I sell, how often I sell, and the timing of the emails that you’ll see in the September issue.
2. The exact content I used from the product itself to create these emails.
I am going to do this by copying & pasting the content from the product I used, then follow it with the email I created from that content. That way you can see the content used and the emails written side-by-side, so you can observe the mindset behind them.
You’ll also see the big ideas I ran with.
And, how I turned the publisher’s content into emails that I wrote very quickly.
Most of the next issue (actually, all of it) will be observational.
So, you can’t passively read it if you want to extract all the Value from it.
All right, if you want in, there’s no time to lose.
