One of the best, and most overlooked methods of getting traffic to your website easily and cost effectively is with ad swaps, i.e, email lists. (I’ll mail to yours if you’ll mail to mine).
But what if you do not have a sizable list?
One thing I've learned is when it comes to Ad Swaps, List Swaps and/or Solo Ad Swaps, Size Does NOT Matter.
A list of 200 can just as easily produce more clicks than a list of 2000 if the site is an active and responsive one. After all, it is the clicks you are after here.
Ok, so how do I approach someone to swap with me?
The first thing is make sure you are a member of the site you are interested in persuading to swap with you.
Next, contact the Admin with your 'proposal' and be honest about your list size.
Example:
Hello ADMIN NAME,
My name is YOUR NAME and I have been a member of your terrific site since DATE GOES HERE. I am writing to see if you would be interested in swapping a solo ad with me. If you will blast my ad out to your list, I am able match your numbers of people receiving the email up to FILL IN YOUR NUMBER HERE and blast one of your offers to my lists. (If you have significantly lower numbers, offer to do it more than one time as a courtesy). Thank you for your time, and please consider doing a swap for me to send your product when you send mine so we both get new customers and sales.
Regards,
YOUR NAME My personal contact info is: YOUR INFO

When I want results there is only one place I go. Dev Hobbins makes the difference. I have made thousands over the last year or so, being associated with Dev. One thing I enjoy is that extra something she always seems to surprise me with. I don't expect those personal touches, but I guarantee, no one else will see that you get that great treatment. Take it from me, I run a business that turns clients into friends. Dev, does that exact same thing and she does it better than us or anyone I have come across.
If you are in doubt about whether to place an ad through Dev's business, doubt no longer. I never wait. She's first on the list with me!
