Default Sounds like a "grabber" of an idea!

EZ and Straightforward.

I send them a **1.00 THANK YOU Note.**

The Thank You Note Contains a LINK to a Valuable Report, Case Study
or other piece of information IN That person's area of INTEREST.
Hi Glenn,

Do you actually send them $1.00 through PayPal (if I understood you right)?

If so, that's interesting... It reminds me of what they sometimes call "grabbers" in direct mail - for example, a coin taped to the corner of a letter, which gets people reading.

I think it'd sure get my attention!

Could be very useful when you want to get a specific person's attention - especially if they might be "swamped" by others wanting their attention, too...

I'd love to read a further explanation...

Best wishes,

Dien

Yes - Glenn actually sends the $1 by PayPal. And adds his message to the message field that PayPal provides.

He has been using this tactic since a long time. And I've used it a few times after seeing him do it too. It works really well.

Thanks Glenn (and also Ankesh) for sharing this. This is amazing and very powerful information!

People who use this could find it very advantageous!

Sorry for my slow reply - I've been a bit ill lately, and I see I have a lot of good stuff to catch up on!

Best wishes,

Dien
