Yes. You can always ask your very close friends to spread the word. The fact is that if they work in a way similar to how a lot of network marketing schemes work, you'd be able to get the word out really quickly.

I think the best way to figure this all out is to realize this is EXACTLY what gary vaynerchuk has been saying for years: you can't go into marketing without being person-to-person anymore. What that guy says tends to come true in 3~5 years, and it's happening right now. lol

How much effective an email campaign becomes is entirely depended on the loyalty of subscribers. Some subscribers are just a number, they never open the email, some subscribers open the email but check the content occasionally, and only few subscribers regularly click the links.

I kind of prefer going through the route of -not- having links in most of my emails and letting people always have a steady feed of free stuff coming to their email. My current plan is to unlist the YT videos and give it to my list a few days ahead of time, never really pitching until they're a bit more comfortable with clicking my links.

I like that sort of an approach too. I think plugging in every 10 or so messages is a better way to do things because people don't feel you're being too pushy with those messages. Plus, it helps build trust.

I can't believe how many awesome guys just fell off my radar after they started sending me 5 mails a day all trying to sell the same thing. I'm all for selling hard, but that was too much.

Anyways, this is also something that I saw online on an Eben pagan webinar. He recommended sending a plug every 5-10 emails. Then I found this Ramit Sethi thing too, where he did the same thing. So, I guess its something that is considered better and since these guys obviously have had more success then me, I would like to follow what they said, although not blindly.
