Day 27: Dear Lens Flipping Diary (Epic Fail)
I took a day off from lens building (I needed a rest) but then listed TWO new lenses to make up for it – and only one sold! GASP – my first failed lens flip! Say it ain’t so! Maybe someone didn’t reply because they assumed it’d be sold. Boo hoo.
First, who knew there was such an interest in dog psychology? Dog owners aren’t like most pet owners who just want to know how to feed them and get them to do tricks. Dog owners feel their pet is part of the family and they want to get to know them as well as possible. So that’s lens #1. (This one sold)
Lens #2 is about social media marketing. We all know static sales copy isn’t going anywhere, but the perfect warm-up routine for a prospect is to find you through a social media element – whether that’s an online video, a blog, or a web 2.0 site like Squidoo! (This poor little guy is still up for adoption).
