Cyber Monday Sales, Weekend Deals Ending and Tips for a New Opt-in Sequence

Happy Monday!

So, the craziness of the weekend is almost over and I am breathing a bit of a sigh of relief. It was interesting at my exercise class this morning, that everyone said they didn’t leave their house all weekend. So I have to wonder if anyone did much shopping this year?

What about you? Did you score any good deals?

There are a lot of deals ending today, including the Digital Divas Ocnocember Blowout. Until midnight you can pick all 12 deals up for only $12 each if you missed them the first time around. But after that they’ll be back up to regular price in our shops.

And, there are a couple of Cyber Monday Sales that are only on for today…

A Weekend of Entrepreneur Gifts – A couple of weeks ago Val Selby and I were chatting, and the subject of Black Friday came up, and somehow in the middle of the conversation we decided we should put together a giveaway of some sort so that you had options to get what you need for your business without having to pull out your wallet this weekend.

The result is A Weekend of Entrepreneur Gifts from both of us and a few of our friends such as:

  • Angela Wills – Finish Strong
  • Fran Whitaker – Cherry Blossom Template Pack
  • Jennifer Burke – Fix Your Freebie
  • Catherine Beebe – Budget Printables
  • Amy Hartmann – How to Write Ad Copy That Attracts & Converts

And a few more…

And from now until Tuesday, November 29, it won’t cost you a dime!

The response has been great so far for JR’s 340 Self-Validation Affirmations package with my workshop bonus. I will get a date figured out in the next couple of days and let everyone who’s already purchased know. I’m really looking forward to digging into this and seeing what all we can come up with. It’s been a while since I’ve worked with one of JR’s packages.

  • 340 Affirmations
  • 20 Affirmation Graphics

(Pssst… check out the first upsell too… there’s a ton more content in there that can be repurposed a bunch of different ways.)

Today’s Read: Seven Ways to Get the Most Out of Your New Opt-In Sequence

Once you have a new lead magnet available to attract people to your list, the next step in building your list is to send those new leads an opt-in sequence. And you’d be surprised at how many people I see who get the opt-ins whether through a lead magnet on their site or through a bundle or giveaway event, and never do anything else but deliver the lead magnet. Or they toss them into a general newsletter list and start selling to them right away.

If that works for you, great. But I’ve found it doesn’t work for me and so I’m gradually building out new opt-in sequences for all of my products and events. Eventually people will make it on to my main newsletter list if they decide we’re a good fit – and make no mistake – it is 100 percent their decision whether to stay or go.

But a good opt-in sequence on your part will help them to get to know you and bridge that gap between being a new subscriber and a loyal customer.

That’s it for me today. I’m off to find some dinner and relax a bit. I was out running around for most of the day, and I’m beat! Don’t forget, you can save 20% storewide with coupon code NOVNEW20 to the end of the month.

Have an amazing day! Create what makes your heart happy.
