Transcription:
James Schramko here with an Internet Marketing news update and I’m here with my good friend the Kookaburra which is an Australian native bird – very unusual sounding bird and he just wants to get in on the show. I’m going to be sharing with you a $100Million checklist, I’m also going to talk about FastWebFormula Live, plus, we’ll talk about something fancy I’m doing with OfficeAutoPilot.
FastWebFormula 4 Live
FastWebFormula Live is shaping up well – there are 30 something tickets sold – the expected venue capacity would be in the one hundred and something mark. Considering that it’s still around about 100 days out from the event – you want to get your ticket now – it goes up every time someone orders all the way up to the ticket price which will end up at $999. For that you’ll get two days of me going through my best stuff – no filler, no fluff, no junk – it’s just pure quality content. I’ll be showing you how I run a multi-million dollar a year business – my best lessons, my biggest mistakes, and I will fast track your business results. I’m sure you’ll get a return on your investment – not only that – you’ll be meeting with some of the most amazing people in the Internet Marketing community not just from Sydney but from all around the world who are flying in for this event. Go to FWF4.com and grab your ticket now.
Register your interest in SilverCircle
If you’re in SilverCircle there is an extra SilverCircle day so you should ask me about that. If you want to join SilverCircle please register your interest at SilverCircle.com – it is currently closed – I’ve taken my intake of members. We’re concentrating on doubling and tripling and quadrupling businesses, it is a 1500 dollar a month investment that I’m sure you’ll get a return on investment as long as you are already making $10K a month or more.
A multi-million dollar earning checklist
So when I was selling motor vehicles I developed a checklist. I tried to figure out why I was losing sales and I crafted a checklist that almost guaranteed that I had the best chance of making a sale and I call this the “Write-Up Sheet”. I know I’ve already spoken about it before but last week I published the checklist inside FastWebFormula. I actually put the checklist – the one that I developed – that I estimate has sold well over $100M worth of vehicles, not just for me but when I train my teams and they will put in place in the dealerships. That’s including only the time up until I left. I calculated actually it’s probably closer to $400M assuming that no one used it the day after I left, but they would be crazy not to use it.
The best thing is this works in just about any business. It’s the 6 or 7 questions you need to know if you’re going to get an order, and I put that checklist inside SuperFastBusiness so check out that post and start to profit in your business. It’s really-really good for any service or consulting business.
Ezra Firestone answers E-commerce questions
Okay, if you like E-commerce you’re in for a treat. Ezra Firestone has been posting a whole lot of answers to E-commerce questions. Ezra runs millions of dollars worth of E-commerce per year, he’s just built a great course that he’s publishing for a huge product release you’ll probably hear all about it – Ezra Firestone is going to be famous for E-commerce people but he’s in there answering questions. I’ve also just done an E-commerce interview which I’ll post as well this week – look out for it. I’ll be sending you an email if you’re on the list at SuperFastBusiness.com.
Leveraging email replies
This week in FastWebFormula we also covered the topic of how to reply to emails. As you know with my emails – I actually say “Hit Reply.” But I use certain sequences, I do ones for buyers, I do ones for people leaving a subscription product, and I also do my general newsletter. So there are certain things that you can do to really maximise that reply to show people that you care, to show people that you’re real, but also solve problems and make money, and also turn that stuff into news items like this – so if someone hit reply and said “How do you get ideas for your news items?” I would say a lot of them come from the people who hit reply and ask me a question. I not only answer it for them but I answer it for all of the listeners on SuperFastBusiness.com by making a video about it. So that’s one way to leverage your reply act.
OfficeAutoPilot sequence
Okay, OfficeAutoPilot – I’m doing some real cool stuff with that. One of the things I’ve done is set up a shopping cart abandonment. What I did was replace the sales form on FastWebFormula.com and I put a get started button. When people click that, if they’ve already given me their email address at any point in the past – it remembers that and it puts them on a sequence so 60 minutes after they go to the check-out page it checks to see if they’ve ordered and if they haven’t ordered it will send them a follow-up email – it’s automatic. If you want to see how that works – if you’re not a member of SuperFastBusiness – go to SuperFastBusiness.com, click on the “Get Started” button and wait an hour – then when I send you an email that’s when you can order. You’ll learn that and a whole lot of other things inside SuperFastBusiness as I develop my OfficeAutoPilot sequences – I’ll be sharing these with members – it’s worth money for you.
Well I hope you’ve enjoyed these tips. I’m James Schramko, I’ll be coming to you soon with some really cool interviews and more information videos.

Email Abandon cart followups can be a really nice way to increase revenue and get back some sales that would otherwise be lost.

Dave I like retargeting cookies for triggered pages. The wonders of the interwebs! Thanks for those suggestions. (Same also for LiveChatInc – you can set support actions for certain pages)
James,
OAP question: since OAP uses tags for subscribers and they’re on a single list, if someone unsubscribes from one of your sequences does it remove them from your entire list?
t
Tim you can decide what should happen at the end of the sequence. Nice huh!
