Deborah is going at her business full force. She had a “house party” on Saturday, where she got to present her jewelry. She got a few custom orders and sold a few pieces. She pushed her web site.
People asked about buying product from her web site. I’m working on adding the “wp-e-commerce” plug in to the site. I JUST upgraded the site to WordPress 2.8, which was released on maybe Wednesday. It seems that the plug in has some relationship issues with v.2.8, so we’ll have to see how they get resolved.
On Friday, she sent out an email to a bunch of her closest friends. She wasn’t using a mail management system and I didn’t tell her to do that, she just did it because she thought it would be a good idea. It was a good idea.
On Friday, when she sent out an email, she got 37 unique visitors in 50 visits.
The chart above shows that she gets an average of maybe 3 or 4 people visit her site per day. On Friday, when she sent out an email, telling her friends about her business and inviting them to the site, she got 37 unique visitors.
That, my friends, is the power of email.
