We just opened the doors on the Social Marketing Blackbox, and I was impressed by this e-mail blast sent out by Wouter Van Den Brink from the Netherlands. Why? Two reasons:

1. He sent it within a few hours of getting his affiliate link. He took immediate action. No procrastination. I love it.

2. His e-mail is well thought out and written. Not spammy or over the top, yet compelling and to the point. I think it’s a great example of an affiliate e-mail, see what you think:

Subject: – Social Marketing BlackBox Is Live Now!!! NO MLM -

Hi Fred,

Let the Social Marketing BlackBox do all the heavy Social Media lifting for you.

http://www.socialmarketingblackbox.com/115.html

Here’s what it does, while you’re at the beach or golfing:

* Open accounts at all of the most important Social Sites. (it would take you about 20 hours to do this on your own!) And a real human does it, not a  bot! Every relevant social networking site, bookmarketing site, micro-blog, etc. is included. But this is just the beginning…

* Set up automation that up-dates your sites automatically, so you don’t have to wade through endless sites posting your content and tweets! Upload instantly to all relevant sites with a push of a button!

* Create websites and blogs for you! No more searching for developers, graphic designers, and paying an arm and a leg for decent websites. Let them do the heavy lifting! You get a new site every single month, up to 10 sites! If you need more than that, no problem, we have an affordable up-grade option for power users.

* Weekly coaching. They are there every step of the way, with a comprehensive training program, followed by an interactive Q&A. This “Learn as you go” approach ensures you learn the latest, greatest marketing secrets and most effective strategies to apply to the web properties they build for you!

* Custom website development! Have you ever been frustrated because you couldn’t easily make changes to your sites, like add a different header, change the font, or add plug ins and widgets to your blog? No worries. With the Social Marketing Blackbox they give you minimum 3 hours every single month, a value of $150! Just send them the project, the site you want worked on, and their developers go to work!

What is a service like this worth?

Have you ever purchased a coaching package? Have you paid a developer to build you a site? Then you know how expensive these things can be.

Many people have paid $3,000 to $10,000 to get a service like this started. And it would be worth every penny. But they don’t need to charge that much. They have this down to a fine art, a smooth, well oiled machine. They have the infrastructure and people in place to offer this service from $67 to $197 per month. And no, there’s no contract. If you are ever dissatisfied, simply cancel, no harm no foul! But everything they did for you is permanent, so you take it with you!

So there you have it. The only critique I would give is to add the URL again towards the bottom of the e-mail, and also add a P.S. that also includes the link, for a total of 3 links. Other than that, great job Wouter! Keep up the great work!
