I got some advice recently that people respond better to personal stories in email and newsletters. I tried to do that in that last newsletter that got sent out. If you read it, it was actually pretty encouraging and applied to you and your business. It wasn’t frivolous. It wasn’t JUST about riding a bike. There was point.
I had 5% of everyone on the list unsubscribe.
OK. I get it. As of today, it will only come out when I have something interesting to say, something that I think is of some value to you.
It will not be sent more often than once a week. I promise.
I put up a poll over there in the right sidebar. I really want to know what you think. I want to make this site and this newsletter effective for you. I really don’t want to waste your time or mine.
I want to know why you came here and how I can fulfill your expectations. I’ll give you want you want if you tell me what that is.
Please leave me a comment. Tell me what you like, and more importantly, what you don’t like.
What can I do to rock your world?
Thanks.



Are you serious…5%. Kinda scary..cause I was liking the personal stuff. Maybe because I’m interested in people not just stuff. Man you are brave to get right our there, post the result and ask how to correct it ASAP. Good Luck Conrad.

I too like the personal stories. I found you via a post (by you) on another web site, got your book, and have been hanging around ever since. The stories help with keeping the material enjoyable.
For those of us that are land locked, please keep the beach stories coming! I might even clean the cobwebs off of my own bike.
