You work hard building your email list… and you spend ages crafting your email newsletters and promotions. But every time you press the “Send” button, you’re hit with a bunch of new unsubscribe requests.

Why?

Often we Internet marketers think that it’s simply because our subscribers have signed up for too many email lists. We imagine their inboxes overflowing with unread messages from all sorts of subscriptions… and assume they’ve decided to purge a few to make their email more manageable.

(We just happen to be the unlucky recipients of their desire to clean out their inbox clutter.)

Nice excuse, but not always true.

In fact, a recent study by MarketingSherpa says the number-one reason people unsubscribe from email lists is that the emails they receive are not relevant to them.

What this means is that you have to make the messages you send your subscribers relevant as often as possible.

One of the best ways to achieve this is to segment your list so that you can better target specific groups of customers with tailored messages and offers. If you do, you can expect higher open rates, click-through rates, and sales. (And fewer unsubscribes!)

Here are a five ideas for segmenting your list so you can send the most targeted and relevant emails possible:

1. Target your best customers: Reward your regulars with special discount or bonus offer for their next purchase.
2. Target people who haven’t bought from you in a while: Entice them back with a limited time offer.
3. Target people who have never bought from you: Focus on building relationships with your non-buying subscribers by providing valuable, free information.
4. Target people based on their location: If you’re an American business, for example, your Canadian customers will really appreciate a special Canada Day (July 1) offer instead of an Independence Day (July 4) offer.
   
5. Target people based on other reliable information you have: Gender, age, hobbies and interests… these are all great ways to segment and target your email messages to make them more relevant to your subscribers, so you should take every opportunity to collect data.

If you’re wondering how to do all this, a good email service provider like iContact, will allow you to collect, manage, and use all the information you need to segment your list like this.

Bottom line: Focus on your audience and make sure your email marketing messages are highly relevant to them.

One of the things we enjoy most about social networking tools is the way they connect us with our customers in a totally unique way.

Today’s my last day as CEO of the internet marketing Center.

But if you’re picturing me spending the rest of my life in a gated community in Florida with a golf course … well that’s not my idea of retirement!

What I’m retiring TO is my life as an entrepreneur. That’s what got me into the internet marketing Center in the first place, and that’s what takes me away.

For me, the juice comes from starting companies and taking them to the point where they can survive and grow in the hands of a management team. At that moment I start looking around for new opportunities and salivating over new challenges.

So my main objective as CEO of the internet marketing Center has been to populate the company with the smartest, most experienced marketing specialists around. I wanted people who are out there on the front lines, building their own online businesses and showing our clients how to do the same thing.

What a team! These are people who not only know internet marketing inside out, but they truly care about the success of our clients.

Now I can step down in good conscience, knowing that you’re in expert hands.

I will still do work with imc, but instead of being the “face” of the company and the “buck stops here” guy, I’ll be able to devote my time to the kind of marketing strategizing and product development that, for me, is where all the fun is.

I’d like to leave you with a story that I wrote recently, describing in detail how I, along with my close friend, the late Corey Rudl, started the internet marketing Center with $25, and turned it into a $100 million business just a few years later.

I think you’ll find it inspiring, and there are important business lessons in it for ALL of you. Oh, and on the same webpage, you’ll find a farewell gift from me, too

It’s been an awesome experience — especially meeting so many other entrepreneurs and speeding up their journey to success.

Now I look forward to returning to my own entrepreneurial roots. (And if you’re thinking, “Is he crazy, leaving his job on Friday the 13th??”… hey, I’m an entrepreneur. I take calculated risks!)

To your success

We’ve gone online!

Pretty exciting news for an internet marketing company, huh?

Okay, to be specific, we’ve put our flagship insider secrets to Marketing Your Business on the Internet course entirely online.

You talked; we listened. And you were right.

The Course (as we call it around here) used to consist of two gigantic binders totaling 1040 pages of training materials… along with a folder of CDs and DVDs, plus a separate booklet about Web 2.0, plus incidentals.

At almost 10 lbs all in, it could do serious damage if you dropped it on your foot.

Not only that, but shipping, handling, and customs charges could add significantly to the cost to the customer. Then there was the wait for it to actually show up on your doorstep once you’d ordered it. Kind of an inspiration killer.

Well now all those problems — and more — are OVER.

Now you can order it… and there it is! You can get started instantly. No waiting, no getting slapped with extra costs, no big binders that are too bulky to cart around.

You can take it with you everywhere. It’s there on your laptop wherever you can go online. You can print parts of it out, or download parts of it to your iPod.

The videos are embedded right there on the page you’re looking at so you don’t have to fish them out of their folder and fire up your CD player. On top of that, everything is clickable, so when we mention a great resource you can go right to it.

And it’s set up in bite-sized steps – just one or two screens long — so you can digest each chunk of information before you move on.

The insider secrets course has been the best-selling internet marketing course online for over 10 years running because it gives you everything you need to know to set up an online business in the order you need to do it.

Now, in its new online format, it’s even easier to use… and we’ll keep improving it constantly so it’s always completely up-to-date. In fact, we’re already at work on new videos and new content. (We’ll send out updates as we add them.)

And we’ve cut the price.

We don’t have to deal with printers and fulfillment anymore, so we’ve passed on the savings… a nice thing to be able to do in these troubled economic times.

If you’re thinking about…

• starting a home business
• seriously beefing up your existing online business
• building a website for your offline store or service

… the all-new insider secrets to Marketing Your Business on the Internet is what will get you there.

We’d love to hear your comments on our new format.
