Dear Direct Response Letter Subscriber: My friend, marketing consultant Graham McGregor, writes: "I regularly purchase a number of products from Bob Bly. One of the things I love about doing business with Bob is that he always replies promptly ... and personally ... to any email I send him. Graham dubs this habit "the prompt email reply." And I don't just do it for Graham because he's a buddy. I do it for 93% of the emails my readers send me. McGregor continues, "I really appreciate Bob's speedy email replies, because least half the people I email never reply promptly. And a large number don't respond at all. "Because I appreciate Bob's promptness doing this, I have made it a habit of responding promptly when someone emails me as well." Graham concludes: "Creating a special way of doing business is an easy way to position yourself as being different from all your competitors in a very positive manner." Sincerely, Bob Bly P.S. Mr. McGregor is the author of an excellent 354-page guide, "Priceless Marketing Advice." I read the book and found its advice extremely useful.
