Best Posting Practices

Posted by on September 15, 2022 in Marketing

Here are 4 simple, easy tips to follow for reaching far more prospects more effectively. — Here is how to email effectively for both cold and warm connections.

#1 Make your prospect the Champion. Think of it like going on a date with someone you barely know. If all you talk about is yourself, most ‘dates’ would not want to go with you on another. — The same goes for emailing potential clients. — So make your email about them: their goals, pains, and business.

#2 Get to your point quicklyYour unsolicited email will get a precious few seconds of their glance. Make it worth their time! Tell them who you arewhat you want. And make it clear and simple what you want them to do. Say this in 3 sentences. (This will allow your reader to know all of what you want to say without scrolling.)

#3 Avoid Links! You want your email to be seen in their In Box. If it contains links, it will probably go into their Spam. Once you’ve made contact and received a replay is the time to send any links.

#4 Be Courteous and Appreciative. Never underestimate Gratitude! In a test of 5 million emails, those with a simple “Thank You” in the close, received 20% more responses!

Hello, I'm Mark Baird and I founded Hire Patriots. My wife and I are 'helpers.' We are concerned about meeting the practical needs of our US veterans and their families. We began a job board for local residents to post chores that they need help with. It has been very successful. Thousands of local US Military and veterans partially or entirely support themselves from our website. We are looking for others near US Military bases who would also like to have a HirePatriots.com website for their location. Find more information about our military programs at PatrioticHearts.org. And please make a contribution of any kind. Thank you.
