Default Re: SPAM Does Work.

But have any idea how many emails were sent for those 6000 sales? FastCompany had an article which stated that on average a small time sp*mmer sends 1million emails a day. A bigtime sp*mmer sends as many as 25million emails a day.

25million a day * 30 days brings in 6000 sales. Thats a very bad conversion rate.

Mostly because the list is not targeted. If these people would have sent the email only to a database of people who surf p*rn sites - they would certainly have received better conversion rates as well as less complaints.

Because some of the sp*m email messages are crafted really well.

There is no satisfaction in sp*mming though. You build no loyalty. You built no customer base. You receive no testimonials. No love. Its worthless to do business that way.

(I had to add * in some words because I got an error saying my post wasnt submitted as it contained naughty language :O )
