Stuck in a sea of product launches
Being a successful online publisher has its perks – and drawbacks. I usually get free products, services, and product launch materials without asking for them. I’m having a hard time keeping up with it all! Yes, product launches were very successful when it all started – but I’ve noticed a severe drop in response to these big launches in my own ezine. Could it be a mutiny?
I have some big-time “launchers” that I consider my friends as well as business associates (such as Ewen Chia, Fabian Lim, Jimmy D. Brown, Anik Singal, and a few others). I will ALWAYS, no matter what – always save time and pub dates for them. Why? Their products are always top-notch and they ALWAYS let me review them first. I don’t even have to ask for it. Sometimes, the product packages are at my door before they’ve even sent an email to let me know about it! They never pressure me or email me every day asking when I’ll send out an email to my list. They know what being a publisher entails. They understand that we have so many other things to tend to (not including our personal lives) and they let me do things at my own pace…
Even so, I have a hard time deciding WHEN to send emails about their products. Why? Because they are such great joint venture partners that they have ALL the big publishers willing to do the same for them. This causes “Product Launch Oversaturation” and really sometimes scares me into not sending an email at all. I don’t want to be like the crowd – I pride myself in being different and many times, I lose out on big money and prizes because I don’t want to inundate my subscribers… my friends…
