Hey all,

This evening I will be sending out coupon codes that you can provide your fans and such that you may lure them to pre-order a copy of issue #2 and get a discount.  I am also going to set up a product that is a combination of #2 as a pre-order as well as one of the remaining copies of #1 in case there were any of your people that missed out on that.  I will also prep some graphics you can use as before to promote #2 but will keep it more general as I don't know we'll have time to super customize them as with issue #1... we had more lead time there.

 

 

General consensus was that the store with all those products (for te same thing) was confusing.  So #2 will be lean and mean and the coupon will still allow me to track sales for you.  This also has some benefit in that the people you send won't accidentally order from another link.  If they want the discount, they'll have to have and use your code.... period.

 

It might also be worth talking up the corkboard part of the magazine, this could help convert someone thinking about 1 copy into justifying 3.  You may have people in your circles with a business or just for fun think it worthwhile to order 3 copies and get themselves in the issue!

 

Another thing I'd like to throw out there, if any of you wish to sell copies direct I'm all for that, would be happy to let you take orders and then when #2 comes in, ship you what you need and you in turn can get them out to your customers.  This as an option for anyone who wants more control over the sales.  It also means you'll know exactly vs. just me telling you "you sold 5!"  Though as we've gone along, as requested I've provided the data from the store to  include names and emails of who purchased so you could always spot check me and call out your people who told you they supported you but are maybe just sayin' so.

 

Thanks and cheers

 

Michael
