The Ugly Thing About Email Campaign Sharing

My bad, that feeling of laziness always creeps on me.

Just awhile ago, I attended a webinar hosted by Jay on list building and email marketing. And, at the end of the webinar, I asked about email campaign sharing.

For those of you who are wondering what the heck is email campaign sharing...

Here's how it works...

MLM top earner is doing great with his online marketing funnel. To help his downline referrals achieve fast duplication of his success, he allow others to just copy his funnel via a share code.

Downlines will just copy the code, paste the code in his autoresponder system, and BOOM! Email messages of the upline copied in an instant. (Sometimes, not just the messages, but also the capture pages, copied).

The thing why MLM people love those funnel and campaign sharing, is that they can rebrand the affiliate links to theirs.

Now, here's the problem:

You happen to opt-in to the downline's email list. To verify the downline's claims, you searched on Google and found upline's review of the opportunity. Curious, you signed up to upline's email list, with you have two persons emailing you the same stuff.

Let me show you an example:

I'm in the list of these two marketers, sending me identical messages:

After asking a question in the Live Q & A section of Jay's webinar, and after receiving a reproof from Jay, I now get it... why Kyle and top affiliates doing WA Affiliate Bootcamp are not doing what the top MLMers are doing with their campaigns.

I thought people here are quite selfish they don't wanna share their campaigns!

I was wrong.

Although that strategy (of campaign sharing) has helped a lot of online network marketers, some companies like Power Lead System makes it the corners stone of their training and marketers even boast it's their secret for sudden massive growth, I now get the point why WA people would not mind doing it.

Jay even pointed out, "It's plagiarism".

On the other side of the fence, what they are just after is "money money money" and not concerned about establishing a unique brand where emails being received by subscribers are 100% unique to the sender.

Now, the conclusion is, Wealthy Affiliate and the people in here do not advocate funnel and email campaign sharing because, this site trains us to become "real online entrepreneurs" rather than just "online mercenaries working for commissions".

Becoming real, unique, online entrepreneurs.

Thanks, Kyle. Thanks, Jay. And thank you, Wealthy Affiliate!

Great blog! It is nice how you pointed out how the MLM system works for online marketing (i thought mlm only applied to real estate) .

I agree w/WA & you, be #AUTHENTIC

The support here for us to become long time entrepreneurs with continuing growth is awesome!

Love the humility, Coach. You have a teachable 'spirit' and a big heart!

All the best!

You hit on it, Gomer. Our WA leaders are trying to give us the best advice possible based on their own success experiences.

When I am in doubt, I will follow their guidance.

Especially Jay. Great advice in his webinars' Live Q & A.

I'm sure your personal efforts will reign supreme...

And we'll add some more! :)

That's the spirit :)

Gomer, at the moment I’m throwing small change at lots of different online produce to help build up a map of all the different ecommerce products and behaviours, so my inbox is filling up fast with these duplicate offers!

As you’ve mentioned, there’s a whole class of digital product and service that offers very little value or novelty. But these products go for small change and account for a lot of movement in that end of the online market. And I dare say, their cheapness probably discourages a lot of consumer complaint.

One of my emails is getting hammered with these countdown duplicate emails as a result of this sampling activity, and a number of the sellers have even taken the opportunity to onsell this new address of mine for spam. Oh my goodness, some are just shameless.

But so far as the sampling goes, I’m disheartened by how bodgy and lacking in originality so much of the produce is. Humans! You’re capable of so much more and better!

Yep we’re working harder but we will have a firmer foundation if we stay with it

Yes! And, one day, I'd love to see you become an "authority figure" in your chosen niche, Sheryl. I'm looking forward to that. :)
