Who Says Direct Mail is Dead

That’s an easy one.  Those who say direct mail is dead is anyone that has never used it. Or, only used it once and failed.  Or, those who are under 35 years old would be my guess.

Well, direct mail is at a place in time where it is the ONLY way to make sure your message gets to the intended target.  With a 95% plus open rate, direct mail is a solid winner for getting your message to your audience.

The actual value of automation is that it is more capable than humans could ever be to accomplish what today needs. With automation pushing the envelope of productivity in marketing per se, it more than capably provides the ability to scale.

Imagine, a single process that is so well-defined that once implemented can repeatedly produce until Infinitum, or until the desired outcome is reached. That’s the power of automating as many processes as possible. 

I have been reading lately about the upcoming Web 3.0, "the semantic web" and I’m excited to see what’s in store for us.  Remember the days of dial up connections?

Then we went from just text to graphics, video, streaming communications, media sharing, and so much more. The internet is continuing to grow up right before our eyes.

Evolution is a beautiful thing, no matter how small It may be. It could be as little as watching your house plant grow or witnessing the transformation of a city you once called home.

Special Update: April 5, 2020

Dear Friends,

March 2020 was like no other March we have ever seen.  The beginning of March was awesome. Everything was on the up.  The stock market was up, revenue was up, profit was up, business was growing & there was prosperity everywhere!  March 2020 took all of that away from us & forcefully dropped us in survival mode.  We had to develop a plan to survive, recover and thrive.

Thankfully, we have a game plan.  In a collection of videos at www.elaunchers.com/sales you will be able to look, study & learn the system that I have been implementing since 1989.  My technology stack of choice has changed over the years but the process and the core philosophy of the system has never changed.

We want to let you know that we are here to help.  If you have already watched the videos on www.elaunchers.com/sales, let us schedule a call to review your prospecting & sales process and how you can systematize it.  (Some of the videos are published on this page too, for your convenience).

Sadly, COVID-19 has turned every business into a telephone-marketing & telephone-sales organization.  Let us share with you what has previously worked for us so you too can survive, recover and thrive into the remainder of the year to come.

Implementing CRM solutions has come a long way since when Personal Computers and MACs first hit the market.  In fact, I'd like to tell you the story about how I learned to love Customer Relationship Management.

Shortly after arriving in America, I went about trying to find a job, earn some money so I could feed myself and my wife.  Needless to say, we came to this great country with nothing in our pockets (well, maybe enough for bus fare).  I tried and tried, and one day, my world changed for the better. At the time, I didn't know by how much.

Last time we reviewed Magnetism as it relates to attraction, persuasion, Magnet Marketing.  Today I’d like to share with you what I believe are the points of positivity that establish the magnetism strategy. 

Mindset is the key to not only attracting lots of interested prospects, it is also the development of a positive approach to life in general.

Your ability to attract ideal clients is directly roportionate to your magnetism. There are sub-laws or minor laws that support the primary law. For instance, the laws of celebrity, resonance, and truth in being the genuine article. For now, let’s concentrate on the encompassing law of magnetism rather than its components so to speak.

Why 2019 Is eLaunchers’ Year Of

Independence and Freedom

This July 4th is the celebration of my 20th anniversary of making a life here in this land of the free, home of the brave.  I came to the realization this holiday weekend that I am significantly fortunate to live in the United States, and I am proud to be an American.

Strategic Selling in Just Five Steps

The value of marketing metrics is critical to a firm’s interests, especially knowing where the revenues originate, flow through the department and produce the ROI that the C-Suite is always asking of marketers large and small.

Last time we spoke of data mining to identify the perfect, high-yielding target audience you should be focusing most of your attention as far as the customer journey on the path to purchase goes.

This article carries on that thought process through to the next step; the present. But hold on, let’s talk a little bit more about what has been discovered and what can be done with it.
