Email Marketing

Dani asked:


I have a credit card with a small limit secured by a money market account. I was told in order to close this account and then the money market account I had to pay the balance of the card and then request the account be closed. I did all of that and was told I would receive an letter or email notifying me of the closing of the account that I could then use as documentation to close the money market account and get my money back. Today, I checked the website and I have a new “bill” in the amount of 3 dollars and change – I sent them an inquiry but am wondering what I can do to get them to close the account and quit charging me fees, etc. It is a small amount of money but I want to get it closed because of this nuisance factor and the terrible customer service.

…. without just getting an auto-reply? I notice that the banner ads above our group’s home page now takes up 80% of the window, rather than the 15 or 20% that it formerly did. This means having to scroll down just to see the home page. I’m a bit annoyed at this, and yeah, I know it’s all free blah blah… I hate marketing types, they run and ruin everything.

Pumkin Pie asked:


Almost any time I’ve applied for one they send me an email saying they reviewed my resume and think I’m an excellent candidate. They then give info to call them and set up an interview. I went to one of the so called interviews and all they do is tell some vague info about the job saying they’re a marketing firm that promotes businesses and ‘they’re looking for outgoing people, are you interested? The guy that interviewed me didn’t ask me any questions other than that.

He then told me that this was just a meet and greet and that they’ll be calling the top candidates back in a few days. (How can you decide who your top candidates are if you don’t even ask them any questions or give them any info about the job??? Of course, I never heard back from them.) He then said “it’s easier for us to SHOW you what you’d be doing than to explain.”

The whole “interview” probably lasted no more than about 3 minutes. Another girl went in right before me and her’s was exactly the same, in fact I could hear him talking to her and he told her the exact same things.

Another company claiming to be a marketing and promotions company for cosmetics called me and they wanted me to come to an interview (which I decided to not even go to). When I asked the lady that called me what type of work I would be doing she just said “marketing” as if it was a big secret. What’s with these companies?? Are they just trying to get applicants in their office to get their personal info or what??

My husband said one of the places called him too and that when he asked for a description of the job duties they also just told him “you’ll be doing marketing for companies”. So he said he decided not to go forward with an interview because he wasn’t going to waste his time going if they’re acting like what they do is a big secret. What’s the deal??

Guys, I am a published author and I have recently completed writing my second book which happens to be a touching romantic novel… Love thriving amidst harsh and impossible circumstances.. Story is based on a real life occurrence…. Unlike the first time, I do not wish to get my book published. Instead I want to sell it through the Internet for about $ 5 only and if someone wants to buy it, I can directly email her/ him the file containing my book. This way, instead of paying about $ 15, the buyer has to pay only $ 5 to read my book. Shipping and handling charges will be saved and also the expensive cost of book will be reduced by about 70%. Do you think my book stands a better chance of being read more (by this method)? Do you think this is a good idea?

Andy asked:


It is very interesting to me when I am doing some research on different network marketing business, I found many website and respond pointing out that business such as Amway, Market America, Southern living…etc is a scam. Most of the respond is base on personal experience or story they have heard. However Better Business Bureau rate those business such as Amway (A+), Market America (B+), Southern living (A)? I understand that BBB is not a government agency, however I do give more credibility to BBB than someone I never met before. And business this well-known surely will be shut down by the government if they are scam, right?
I believe that people who take the time to respond or even make a website have to be good people, people who is trying to help someone from doing things they believe is bad.
English is not my first language, if there is any confusion feel free to ask or email me at pokhungpun@gmail.com.
I am here with open-mind and ready to listen, I ask for the same from those who speak, please don’t make any personal attack on those who speak up and allow everyone have the chance to speak what they believe.

Summer asked:


I am the computer training at our company. There are about 500 people in the building that have the opportunity for computer training. Currently, I send out a newsletter with tips and security information, which also includes the training calendar for the next two months. I normally have more people sign up for training when this is sent out; however, I do not want to send out more emails because I am afraid of spamming people basically with unwanted emails.

I have my training calendar posted on our intranet but because of the setup of this intranet it is rather difficult for people to find. You also cannot bookmark it because every time it is updated it gets a new url (I know, out of my control).

Also, HR sends out a monthly email with a link to the training calendar as well.

What can I do in between these items to get people to sign up. I’ve tried making posters, but I haven’t had much luck with that. I’ve had a give away for an all-in-one printer, which went well, but I cannot do that every month.

I’ve thought about taking food or candy to each department with a note next to it, but wasn’t sure about that.

Any ideas to draw more attention to a training schedule periodically and what I can do to get more people to attend?

Thanks!

I am a 15 year old Successful Internet Marketing Dude (Hopeful). I have been in the field for 2 years,but I have been plagued by impulse spending for outside items. I am in the process of writing a product on email and the effective capture and money making of it. I have had many website, which have started and ended blank. I receive $200+ a month and can’t stop wastefully spending it. I am not spoiled, nor rich and am a hard worker. How do I stop impulse spending? The only thing I get held back by is money to get essential things like custom template design, a sales copy and seo. Am I too young to start doing these things, should I wait till I am 18? Should I just drop everything and become a normal teen? I just got out of the “Get Rich Quick” notion that corrupts thinking.

To the people who are wondering, the money doesn’t come from drugs, Im clean. My dad is a lawyer.
Thank you for you Answers, but I am not looking for “Services” as in if you are a company please don’t use this to entice me to buy your product or service

Geepee asked:


Someone has been sending marketing emails to my contacts, as also to others, through my Windows hotmail account. I get to know of it only when I see my ‘Sent mail’ folder. I am at my wit’s end to stop this. I have changed my password too, but that has not helped. How is this happening? Is it possible to send emails like these with your email ID without logging in? And how to stop this? I do not wish to discontinue this account since this has been given to a large number of people.

Lisa asked:


Can someone please advice. I am sick to my stomach. I just signed a two month listing agreement with a real estate agent to sell my house two days ago. He has not returned one call/email since. He used photos I took on MLS, which are horrible, and he has not changed them out. Don’t you think as a new client, he would at least call me back? I am really upset and want a new agent asap (someone else I interviewed) or I would prefer to sell on my own. His marketing brochures were worse than what I would put together. I was stupid and believed his sales pitch about customer service – the reality is, there is no customer service. Please give me some advice as to how to get out of this. Thanks.
