EXCITING "FREE OFFER" AT THE END OF THIS GUIDE TO INTERNET MARKETING
 
The following is a FREE GUIDE to "Effective Marketing" through the use of
Mass Posting. I have a lot of experience and have done much research on
this subject. The following information is a VERY entertaining and
worthwhile read!
 
THIS IS MY STORY
 
I've been bumped off a number of other Servers for Mass Posting (spamming)
activity. This is considered a breach of Netiquette. It's no big deal, I
simply change Service Providers as needed. There are 1000's of Service
Providers out there, so the possibilities are endless!  However, at the
same time, I have made a lot of$$ dollars E-mailing to over 1,500,000 (yes,
I did say MILLION) Mailing List subscribers.
 
HOW I DID THE DEED ... AND YOU CAN TOO!
 
I pulled ALL possible MAILING LISTS that I could find on the Internet.  I
sent out "just one E-mail" with bcc, blind carbon copy, to all lists. Don't
send a separate E-mail to each Mailing List, that takes to much time! Just
copy and paste the"send to the group" E-mail address for each List and THEN
send. You want to post ALL lists at one time.  Encourage your recipients to
call your business number or write to an address to order or obtain more
information. Some Servers can react quickly (after the fact) and shut you
down before you get even one reply returned to you.
 
NEWS GROUPS
 
NEWS GROUPS are used in a similar fashion. I simply PULL the E-mail
addresses off the News Groups and then blind carbon copy, post everyone,
with just one E-mail. You can also "post your message" to the News Groups.
This also works, but is not as effective as the personal appeal of a direct
E-mail campaign. Be prepared for Flames and Mail Bombs to both you and your
Service Provider. I have found that the so called "Voices from the Net" is
much overrated. Most people pay no attention if they have no interest.
However, your SERVICE PROVIDER WILL react due to even the smallest amount
of mail bombs it receives. WHY you ask?  Service Providers get real UPSET
due to the fact that mail bombs can overload and shut down their Server.
This temporarily deprives ALL their customer's access. This tends to make
them a LITTLE TESTY!  However, this is not as bad as it seems. You already
have received many "connection refused by Host" error messages from your
Server. This happens when traffic becomes too heavy for your Server to
handle and the Server Temporarily shuts down. For General Announcements
like this one, an "Anonymous Server" is great! However, you can't count on
getting  your important replies back.  Many of the replies will get lost on
the way back to you due to the security features of the Anonymous Server!
(A good anonymous provider is "anon.penet.fi." Just send E-mail requesting
information to "[log in to unmask]".)
 
WHEN TO SEND YOUR MASS POSTING
 
A suggested time to send out your huge mass posting is on a Monday morning
at 2:00 am. The Server is not very busy. Furthermore, the Syops (system
operators serve as monitors) are usually not very awake on Monday morning.
They are more likely to let your E-mail slip by due to dealing with 100's
of posting to their Mailing List from the weekend. It really pays to make
your Subj. Header something that is "very generic." Many Syops just look at
the Subj. header and NOT the content before posting. When that happens ...
You're in business! Examples of a good header would be: FYI, Good
Information, Reply to message, Coffee anyone? You get the idea I am sure.
Just be creative and stay away from headers that sound commercial. The
subscribers also tend to forward your message to others if you request they
do so in your posting. BTW, ... MOST of the Lists are NOT REALLY MONITORED.
 
MAJOR BULLETIN BOARDS
 
AOL, Compuserve, Prodigy and Delphi, ETC., don't have the problem of
shutting down because of their large size capacity. They are also much
slower to respond to NEW BEES who don't "know any better." Generally
speaking it takes about 3 warnings about Mass Posting (spamming) from a
Service Provider to finally shut you down. You can, in many cases, PLEAD
ignorance ... Oh REALLY,  SOB ... SOB ... I am very sorry! I am new and I
didn't know I couldn't do that ... SOB ... please don't shut me off ...
sort of dribble. Be creative!  This tactic will sometimes keep your Server
off your back one week to ten days to collect your responses from 2 or 3
separate mass posts. If you are currently a subscriber to one of the Big
services and you get bumped off, ... a letter of apology to TOS with a
promise not to Spam again will always get you turned back on. I had one
Server here in Albuquerque going for several weeks until they wised up to
what I was doing. Please, don't count on that happening! You have a high
probability of being immediately BUMPED OFF!
 
 
        USE OF AN AUTOMATED ANSWERING SERVICE & MARKET EXPANSION LINE
 
One technique that I use with a great deal of success is an AUTOMATED
ANSWERING SERVICE. US WEST COMMUNICATIONS (phone company) provides a
service called VOICE MESSAGING. You will never miss a message or have a
busy line again! This service adds $6.95 a month to your phone bill. The
great thing about it is that it can handle ALL your incoming calls at one
time. I have my Voice Mail Service set up as an information and ordering
HOT LINE.  If you expect MORE calls than what this service can handle, then
you may want to invest about $20.00 a month for a full Voice Mail Service
or a receptionist who can actually answer the phone to take orders. Make
sure your receptionist brings Asbestos clothing to work. The receptionist
will get flames or crank calls.
 
The use of a MARKET EXPANSION LINE can also be very useful. This is simply
a phone number that automatically call forwards to the number of your
choosing. The advantage of this service is that you can use this number in
your advertising and then disconnect it at anytime in the future without
ever compromising your true phone number. Contact your local telephone
service provider for complete details.
 
IMPORTANT TIP: REALLY PAY ATTENTION TO THIS!
 
This Tip is MOST important! Make sure that you have an address and
telephone number in your message for prospects to call or write.  Yes, you
will get an occasional nut case/radical who will call to complain. HOWEVER,
you will receive LOT$ of legitimate orders for your valuable product or
service! Make sure that you use a MAIL BOX ETC address as your business
address. This company will give you what will appear to be a real street
address as opposed to a P O BOX. You never can tell if a REAL nut case will
drop by your home or business location and cause problems.
 
HELPFUL HINTS
 
You can make your mass posting program last much longer with your Service
Provider if you take the time to post a question to the Mailing List that
fit their subject matter and then add a PS, ... BTW, Do you want to buy
something ... information. This tip was offered to me by one of the big
List Syops. However, I found this very time consuming to post individually
to 1000's of lists and far EASIER to just change Service Providers. Again,
if you're going to Mass post (spam) ... do it BIG!!!  Little or BIG mass
posting, the result is the same. Your Service Provider will tire of
receiving Mail Bombs and eventually give you the Old Heave Ho! Keep in mind
that you ARE going to be eventually bumped off anyway ... so what's the
difference?  Don't be afraid to mass post to your Mailing Lists again and
again. There is a constant turn over of subscribers to any Mailing List
providing you new prospects for your marketing efforts.
 
THE INTERNET gods HAVE SPOKEN!
 
Your Mailing-List SYOP will say to you "The Internet gods have spoken. You
are FOREVER BANNED from ever using our Mailing-List again"! They will put a
block on your current net address preventing you access.  HOWEVER, each
time you change Service Providers ... guess what?  You have a NEW E-Mail
Address! The Mailing-List computer site is kind of stupid and doesn't
recognize that you're the same person. This also works if you change Mail
programs to the "same" Service Provider. Just a slight change in your mail
program will do the trick!  Example: Just change from Eudora to Pine and
AWAY YOU GO AGAIN! Spamming away to your hearts content to Fame and $$
FORTUNE!
 
NETIQUETTE?  WHAT THE @#^%* IS THAT!?
 
"I do know one thing about Nettiquette,
not very many users practice it!"
 
The Net is totally unregulated and governed by something called
"Netiquette."  However, you can within reason, disregard Netiquette because
of the constantly changing self imposed rules and hypocrisy of most of the
users. If you don't believe this, just monitor some News Groups and you
will soon agree! Keep in mind that the Internet community strongly supports
First Amendment Rights, including the right to distribute and promote
explicit pornography, text and all sorts of weird ideas and Weirdo's.
However, at the same time, a small vocal minority will object, oppose and
seek to censor an innocent commercial message. ... GO FIGURE!!
 
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
 
I have consulted with everyone from the Internet Society to my states
Attorney General Office and private Attorneys who specialize in the field
of Postal, Wire and the newly emerging Internet. There are no civil or
criminal laws being violated as a result of MASS POSTING!  NONE AT ALL!!
 
DIRECT MARKETING ASSOCIATION
 
The Direct Marketing Association says that you should average about 1.5 or
2 % response from a U S POSTAL mailing program. (The average household
receives about 60 lb. of junk mail each year.) I have found that percentage
is right on the money with E-mailing!  In fact, readership is almost 100%
compared to half of U S POSTAL junk mail being thrown away unopened.
However, even if your response is only a tiny 1/10 of 1% from 1,500,000
E-mails, that still is 733 prospective customers for your product or
service!
 
NOW HERE IS MY OFFER TO YOU!
 
I will set up your mass posting program for a total of $425.00 and YOU will
receive a second mass posting program FREE. You will receive a total
distribution of 3,000,000 (MILLION) INTERNET SUBSRIBERS! THIS OFFER IS
LIMITED TO THE FIRST 10 WHO CALL THE NUMBER LISTED BELOW.
 
No need to sit in front of your computer downloading E-Mail addresses for
literally months at a time! There are thousands of lists! You DO NOT even
have to own a computer! I can also attach a GIF or JPEG file to your
message at no additional charge! This file appears as a separate attachment
to your E-Mail. The file appears on your prospects screen as a quality
color advertisement with images of you,  your product or service!. (You
will have to provide the Art work. Lay out must be no larger than an 8 1/2
x 11.) Cost includes consultation, set-up and running of your advertising
program on a server of your choosing.
