Well – I sent out the first Daily Positive Thought with the new program for this morning, and I had a lot of email bounces, and i’m thinking quite a few didn’t get delivered because I didn’t get my copy 🙁
I’m going to keep trying, and trying different mailing programs that are free. The program I tried allows me to send out 15000 emails a month. I stupidly assumed that was plenty. I didn’t realize that each person on the mailing list would count as 1 emai, so I’ve already set out over 500 emails. I feel stupid lol. I did get the PO Box, and I’m still accepting donations to help defray the costs. For those of you reading this on Live Journal, the donate button can be found on the think positive 30 website http://www.traciejoy.com
I really want to keep the mailing list going, but if I can’t, I can’t. There are great programs like aweber and constant contact for mailing lists, but those are incredibly expensive, and since I don’t do any serious markting on the website, there is no way to offset the costs unless people are willing to donate – and so far, people aren’t. That’s something I actually do get. Money is tight for everybody these days, and a dollar donated here could just as easily be put toward a bill.
Hopefully, it will work out and I’ll find the perfect solution – like today’s daily quote said: Weak desires bring weak results, just as a small amount of fire brings a small amount of heat. – Napoleon Hill If I really want this to happen, I can make it happen 🙂
