The idea of providing a 100% valuable content to your audience sounds great. It gives them an inside of the product leaving them aware with what to expect

Thanks for the information on promotion. I’m glad you spoke on the issue of over promotion. That really pisses me up at times.

D, TM, MB – yes, it’s good to balance your email promotions out. When your subscribers recognize the value you give, the sales come along with it.

Santa – I agree, it’s annoying to get all promotions and never any valuable communication.

KPP – Great point! Clients love gifts and this is a perfect time of year to go for it. You will certainly stay in their mind when you do something over and above.

This is a great time of year but seriously now more than ever it is easy to send a quick promotional gift to all your clients. It might be that little bit extra that helps get you the next order.. you dont want to be that one vendor/provider/whatever who doesnt send something and might stand out in a bad way.

I really hate it when I have to visit supermarkets for christmas promos in early October. And now they have these very long opening hours, too. Just awful.

Vera, thanks for this post and reminding people of not overpromoting. I quite too foten see emails coming in on a daily basis promoting the same thing (or store) again and again and it really is too much. It just goes into the trash folder. Result is, that the promoter looses reputation with me -> so no sale.

Great points to to think about, your subscribers want quality content first, they will look at your promotions as a bonus if that content measures up .Soft-Sell beats Hard-Sell anytime!

I think these are great tips for promoting a product at any time of year, not just during the Christmas season. You make a good point about the necessity of providing valuable content to your mailing list. Most people don’t want to be bombarded by ads. So if you promote to your list too heavily, a lot of people will simply unsubscribe. Worse yet, this could lead to negative reviews about your company.

Thanks for this valuable information. I always make sure the keywords flow naturally with the text and when I am brainstorming for good words, ask around for words that come naturally to people of all ages when looking for designated type of site.
