My True Story...

When I first started my e-zine, I found it hard to get subscribers fast.

Then without paying a penny, I grew my e-zine to a few thousand in a short time.

Now I reap the rewards of a large e-zine.

Read on and find out how you can do it too.

I was tired of waiting.

Hi, my name is Troy McDonald. Let me tell you about when I first started my e-zine.
Just like you, I wanted more subscribers. I really didn't want to spend any money unless I had to, so I started thinking.
I remember that I had seen a thing or two about e-zine ad swaps and so I set out to see which e-zine owners would swap ads with me and my e-zine.

I contacted some e-zine owners and while some turned me down, some e-zine owners wanted to swap and so I was off starting with my first e-zine ad swaps.

Most of the e-zines I swapped with in the beginning had anywhere from 2-4 times the subscribers I had, so I had to run their ad a total of 2-4 times in my e-zine. (This didn't matter to me, I just wanted more subscribers.)

It got confusing.

Well, after about 3 issues of my e-zine (which I ran monthly), it got a bit tedious for me. I had to remember who I had placed ads for month after month, who I had finished my deal with, what the ad was that I was supposed to run for a particular e-zine, etc. A real pain in the neck!

I came up with a solution (You can use it too, for free.)

I knew that I need to make things easier. I also knew that I needed to automate things as much as possible.

I designed a piece of software that allowed me (and anyone else that uses it) to keep track of the problems I mentioned earlier and I used an autoresponder to give details about my e-zine and information about swapping ads with me.

I found out that other e-zine owners wanted help too, just like you.

After I found a formula that worked, I had other e-zine owners ask me what I was doing. I then offered them the software I created (for free).

Here is what some of them have to say:

I have been swapping ads for a few months, but found it very difficult to keep track of all the ads. When I saw your tracking software, I figured it had to be better than my manual logs. I downloaded it and in minutes I was starting to get organized. It was so easy to start! I had all my swaps entered in less than 30 minutes. Now I am so organized that I don't know what to do with all of the free time I have. Thanks for this wonderful software which has eased my stress of ad swaps.

I got your ezine swap program from a friend and thought that I would give it a try. Boy does this thing work. Not only have I gotten 25 ads placed in different ezines with subscriptions rates as high as 11,000 people but I have also gotten several new subscribers to my ezine, expanding my base subscription. But even on top of all that I think the best thing that I have gotten out of this great program is all the new knowledge and friends that I have gotten as a direct result of using your product. This is a very good product and I would recommend it to anyone that is interested in expanding their subscription base. Thank you so much for a very good product.

Since starting my newsletter a couple of months ago. I dreaded traking the ad swaps. I found your software to rid myself of any anxiety of messing up my swaps. It's easy to use, and use again, even for a newbie. Now, I really would be overloaded with "ad-swap-stress" (to say the least) if I didn't have your software. I've got so used to using it all the time that don't know where I'd be without it.
Thanks Troy!

I started publishing just over three months ago. In the beginning it was every two weeks. Now that I'm publishing weekly with an ad supplement that goes out once a week, there is a lot more to keep track of.

I wasn't really interested in the Ad Swap idea because it just meant figuring out another system to keep track of more information.

The Ad Swap Tracker takes care of that and it's great. All the ads, e-zine details, contact information and the number of ads you are swapping for are all kept on one page. It's a terrific little tool. Thank you.

The Ezine Ad Swap Tracker Pro is amazing. It has allowed me more time to work on my ezines and less time trying to juggle insertion dates and ads. It's so easy to use and works like a charm! It is a total pleasure and I highly recommend it to all ezine publishers!
