How To Market Online Using An Email Party

WeÆve all heard of online parties where we join people in a
chat room but have you ever thought of having an email
party?

The concept of an email party is simple. The host/hostess
sends an email to all of his/her address book to invite
friends, family, and acquaintances to shop your website.
Yes, itÆs that simple!

Attract people to your website or product by telling them
you offer FREE ITEMS if they host an email party. Tell them
itÆs a simple concept of copy, paste, and send. Inform them
of the benefit (i.e. what amount of free things youÆll give
them) of having the email party. Provide them with the email
"template". Have them pick a start and end date for their
party. Have them send you a copy of the invitation. Create a
tracking device such as having guests enter the hostÆs or
hostessÆs email in the comments box so that you can track
order origination. Wait for their orders to come in from
their referrals. Total their party orders and total their
free product!

Attracting people to your site can be easy when you use the
word FREE! This is an example from
www.TheCandleCoop.com/FreeCandles.htm

Creating a template for your customers makes it easier for
them to say, "YES" to the idea of sending out the email.
Most customers donÆt know the features and benefits of your
particular product and donÆt know exactly how to word the
invite to send to their guests.

HereÆs the invitation template from the above example:

SUBJECT LINE: YouÆre Invited to My E-Party at The Coop!
