Is Your Sales Process Working the Way This One Worked On Me? Might Be Time To Check!

Sometimes I will be going about my daily business and do something that is the perfect example of how things are supposed to work. It not only makes my day, but it also solidifies and helps me recognize where my own stuff is awesome and not quite right.

This happened today, and has happened on a few occasions when dealing with the folks at MaxBlogPress.

My first dealings with them were to get a couple free plugins. Specifically the customizable opt in box plugin and the ad stripe plugin ~ both of which I use on my Internet Marketing Strategy for Beginners site.

When I got these plugins and installed them to make them work I had to opt in to MaxBlogPress’s list. Brilliant. I was a little annoyed but quickly got over it when I started getting their emails and all the valuable information and products they provide.

Because the first emails I read from them were so helpful to me they have earned a place directly in my inbox. You see most of my internet marketing lists skip the in box and go directly to a folder called “IM lists” which I read when I have time (or really never), however, MaxBlogPress, has impressed me and I actually look forward to their emails.

(This is exactly how it is supposed to work, and how I hope my list is working)

Today I received an email from them about  interviews they’ve done with some of the best bloggers around about getting traffic to their sites. I’ve seen these “interviews” before, usually a bunch of fluff with no real information. Normally I wouldn’t have even checked it out, however, because it came from them and they have earned my trust I went and looked. I downloaded the pdf and holy COW!! It was good. Really good.

It was of course a presell for the entire product, which was also brilliant on their part. Because of the great content they gave away for free I’m really interested to see what comes next. I will have my eyes open for the email that comes telling me the new product is launching and I’ll take a look at it.

What’s even more fun than getting the great information was seeing the process in action, done perfectly. It gives me a great place to compare and contrast my process and think about whether the things I do are landing on my readers in the way their process has landed on me.

Here’s the post with the MaxBlogPress traffic download. You can grab it yourself.

As an affiliate marketer think about your sales process and see if your process is working in the same way that theirs worked on me. If you don’t think it is ~ time to tweak!! Here’s a free ebook outlining the 6 step process I’m using to create a sales process that works.
