JOCELYN: Hey guys, welcome to this week's Q&A with S&J. We are here on a very rainy, Kentucky day – SHANE: Which you can probably hear the thunder right now. JOCELYN: Yeah, it's a little loud so, we are here with you today just hanging out, and thought we would answer some questions. SHANE: Alright today's question comes from Flip Your Life community member, Ashlyn Tengan, I'm not exactly sure how to say that Ashlyn. I know your first name is Ashlyn so we'll go with Tengan right now. How do you think you say that? It's T-E-N-G-A-N. JOCELYN: I am not sure but – SHANE: I don't know; but either way, her website is amomintraining.com. So if you want to go ask Ashlyn how to pronounce her name and check out her content, head over there. She is a Flip Your Life community member and her question is, "After to listening to the podcast number 44 and 45, I am setting up my email autoresponder series, and my sales funnels for two different lead magnets that I have. I am using AWeber" That's a good choice, we like people to start out with AWeber. "My plan is to create two separate lists in which their own autoresponder series sales funnels sell each product, then set up an automation rule that will put them on my main list also –" So basically you are trying to create two different email autoresponders, but get them on your main list as well. "–Since I already have about 100 email subscribers on my main list which currently has no sales funnel, but I do know which lead magnet each person subscribed through. How can I put each group of people through the right autoresponder after I create it?" JOCELYN: Alright, this is an interesting question and I think that it actually could have multiple answers. But where I would start with the people that are already on your list is, by sending them an email and trying to get them to choose one or the other. If you have two options, maybe you would have two links there, 'Which one would you like to learn more about, A or B?' And then that in turn, would segment then on to another list. Now, if you wanted to start them on your new sales funnel, you probably don't want to give them a welcome email because they already sort of, know you. So, what I would do for them is just start them out on email number two. SHANE: So that way, you can send out one broadcast email that has the two options and let them kind of jump in to where they want to be at that point. And then you can kind of just work them into the main part of your list. JOCELYN: So it's a little bit unclear to me if the people who subscribe to each lead magnet are the way that you are wanting them segmented; if that's true, I mean, you can go ahead and segment them on to your other list and to start them at email number two of those particular sales funnels. But if they are unrelated to the new sales funnels that you have created, I would do it the way I was talking about earlier where you would send them an email, let them respond by clicking one thing or another, and then put them on to that other list.
