Massive FFA

This past week I'm been sending email ads to Massive FFA. It's a direct
e-mail marketing services which comes with several benefits.

The main feature of Massive FFA is the ability to send your e-mail message to about 3,000 prospects daily for $10 bucks a month. It wasn't the affordable price that attracted me but it was the marketing tools that came with it including the safelist submitter, autoresponder account, search engine submitter and other goodies.

So far the results has been dissappointing. After 4 days of sending my message to 3 thousands leads everyday, no one signed up to a program I've been promoting for over a year called Lifestylenetworker. The main purpose of this website is to capture leads so I can follow with them later with more info about my opportunities. This type of website is commonly called 'lead capture page' or 'blind capture page' because you don't really know what kind of business opportunity they are talking about.

I will give Massive FFA a month or two in order to explore it's full potential before cancelling my subscription. I will keep you posted.

Regards,

Paul Penafiel

Paul,

You can lead a horse to the water, but you can't make him drink!

People get mislead because they think that just because they are not getting sign-ups, the markting program they are using is no good. You must have a program that people want to buy or you could have millions of leads and not getting any signups. I encourage you to analyze what you are trying to sell. Maybe it is actually not what people are looking for. Instead, check the number of hits you get to your site and you can see how effective your ad copy is as well as the leads. If you do not have a catchy subject line your email will never get openned.

In summary, don't just to blame the site you are using to advertise, just because you are not getting signups.
