Newbie Club Special
July 24, 2007 | Written by annliu | Filed Under Affiliate Marketing Tips, Webmaster Tools
I’ve just received the following news from Newbie Club owner Joe Robson and I just had to send it on to you straight away. To be honest with you, I’m shocked that he’s running such an amazing offer, but you have to be quick before it’s pulled for ever …
Here is the email:
Hi Ann, I have some fantastic news for you - really!
The Newbie Club has now been going for 7 years - yes seven whole years - and I have never once held a special sale of Newbie Club Branded products …
Until now!
Look, I’m going to be straight with you. It’s July and every year at this time Internet Publishers and offline retailers experience a slowdown in sales. It’s part of life.
Up until now I have never done anything to counteract this, but this year is different. Because I have decided to run a “Buy 1 Get 1 Free” promotion, or as I call it a ‘2 for 1′ promotion.
OK I want to see if I can counteract the sales slowdown somewhat, and the best way to do that is to make you an offer you cannot refuse. And this offer GUARANTEES that we BOTH benefit.
That’s right, we will BOTH benefit from this very first Special Offer I have ever created for The Newbie Club.
——- Here’s How It Works ——–
Simply put …
Purchase ANY Newbie Club Product listed on the Website and claim a SECOND Newbie Club product of the same value or less ABSOLUTELY FREE!
In other words …
You BUY 1 - you get 1 FREE.
I said you BUY 1 - you get 1 FREE!
Did you get that?
You BUY 1 - you get 1 FREE!
Every time I read that phrase I start to sweat a bit, because to be honest I’m a bit nervous about doing this in case too many Free products are claimed, and my August/September sales are affected.
I want to keep this simple so I have not prepared any special sale pages or installed any fancy software. Just purchase your product in the normal way and then email me your receipt and tell me which FREE product you require. My Support Team will email you the download link within 72 hours.
It’s as simple as that!
The Newbie Club Brand is famous all over the Internet, and our products are recognized as the finest of their kind on the ‘net’.
And for the first time ever, you now have the terrific opportunity to grab TWO products for the price of ONE!
With One Proviso …
BUT, But, But. (isn’t there always a ‘But’?)
This once in a lifetime (7 years actually) Special will definitely END AT MIDNIGHT EST Monday 31st July 2007!
If demand gets too high, I reserve the right to end the promotion before that date. Because if I give away too many products then obviously future sales will downturn too far and I will lose in the long term.
Doesn’t that make sense?
So in effect, this Special Offer could be WITHDRAWN AT ANY time between now and the 31st July.
1 Day?
3 Days?
5 Days?Quite honestly your guess is as good as mine because I have no past Special Offers of this kind to guide me!
That ain’t BS. it’s plain fact. I’m simply protecting my business by not giving away the store.
Excuse me but I’m starting to sweat again!
==================
—— Here’s The Simple Rules …
1. Offer only applies to NEWBIE CLUB BRANDED products listed at the official Website and purchased between NOW and the published deadline, but I reserve the right to END the promotion at any time before that published deadline.
2. Purchase ANY Newbie Club Branded Product and claim a complimentary second Newbie Club Branded Product of equal or lesser value.
Example: Purchase Windows for Newbies at $34.95 and claim any other single Newbie Club Product valued at $34.95 or less.
NOT, NOT; Purchase Registry for Newbies for $29.95 and claim multiple other products that add up to $29.95 in total - gimme a break!
NOT, NOT; Purchase Keyboard Magic for $9.95 and try to claim First Website Builder valued at $39.95.
3. Email your receipt to 241@newbieclub.com with ‘241 Claim’ in the Subject, and list your preferred complimentary product in the body of the email. Be Specific!
REPEAT; Email your receipt to 241@newbieclub.com
4. State whether you need Win 98 or XP version where applicable
5. USE THE EMAIL ADDRESS THIS PROMO WAS SENT TO YOU to ensure the filters do not block our reply with your download link.
6. As with most promotions of this kind whether Online or Offline, NO claims relating to products purchased before today’s date will be considered and will be ignored.
7. To avoid giving away too many products which will affect future sales, we reserve the right to change the published closing date and end this offer at any time by emailing notice to this email address. Non receipt of that notice by you will not be considered a viable reason to dispute the modified closing date.
8. Because of the anticipated heavy demand, please allow at least 72 hours for our Support Team to manually process your request and send you your complimentary download link.
Keep smilin’ Ann
