The naughty magazine that radically perked up my business

“Dude, legit question. Do you ever get bored spamming the same shyte year in and year out? I mean on the one hand I admire your fortitude. But the professional and intellectual satisfaction must be absolutely nil. P.s You're more than welcome to use this for your next email while dismissing it as troll fodder.”
My answer?
Not a troll question, just a dumb question.
Especially since he doesn't even know what the definition of spam is.
All I will say is, the satisfaction I got from $10k in commissions (my “cut” for that campaign) for literally 25 minutes of “work” (loading up the emails I’d already written & used the last 7 or 8 years in a row each Fall) was quite thrilling, in fact. Especially since, that deal is so generous and the product so ridiculously Valuable, it gets dozens of emails thanking us for offering it, and is changing lives.
More:
Every year we run that campaign.
And, every year, we make more sales than the year before.
Something else to think about:
Many years ago, the great Dan Kennedy wrote a newsletter talking about an ad (selling shoe lifts to make men an inch or two taller) that had been running in Playboy… since before he was born!
This sucker ran for 50+ years.
And, could very well be running still today for all I know.
This ad just chugs along, year after year, unchanged, and makes the guy running it a profit. Probably, he just tells his secretary to run it in whatever publications he thinks it will do well in.
Not the most professionally & intellectually stimulating task in the world.
But, I suspect he finds a way to get by somehow…
Anyway, here’s the point:
Mr. Kennedy talked about how having an ad like this is something that every marketer should strive for — where it brings predictable and consistent income month after month, year after year, and, yes, decade after decade.
No, it won’t be the most creative thing you ever do.
But it could very well be one of the most profitable.
In my case it's been one of the most radical activities for perking up profits I ever done.
It’s also something the February “Email Players” issue teaches.
Specifically, a short email campaign you can send your list (yes, you must have a list, and content you’ve already created — so if you’re a contemptible dopamine addicted new product junkie who never does anything but buys everything, put your pants back on…) year after year, to bring in sales practically “on demand”, and sometimes quite a bit of sales to boot at that.
The deadline to get it on this action is today.

P.S. If you doubt your King & Master’s ability to show you how to do this, cast your skeptical eyes on this comment from “Email Players” subscriber Jacob Schmelzer:
“Ben, wanted to quickly say thanks. Made over $10k in one-time sales with about half of that now recurring monthly that can be directly attributed to advice from the email players skhēma book. I did the 12 email sale you taught in the appendix. Worked like a charm.”
Your business’s results will vary, of course.
But, even so, as I told him:
“If you made a bundle with that 12 email sale I taught in the book, you will be able to clean up with the info in the February issue.”
This is no joke.
We live in exciting times to be selling online, especially if’n you possess the February “Email Players” issue.
But the deadline to get it is today.
After I send it to the printer, it'll be too late.
