From List to Blissed (Terry Dean)
- Episode #109
There aren’t many mismatches like an introvert trying to sell satellite dishes to Amish homes. But from that start, Terry Dean explored many avenues before discovering the Internet in 1996 and becoming one of the earliest online marketing successes.
Welcome to Making It! This weekly show explores the lives and stories of entrepreneurs as they share their unique perspectives on their success and the path to making it.
Terry Dean has been an online marketing expert for nearly 30 years and is the founder of MyMarketingCoach.com.
“My biggest breakthrough was when I realized that my income each month was directly proportional to the size of my email list.”Terry Dean
Terry Dean went from delivering pizzas for $8 an hour to creating a full-time income online in 1996. He was one of the first online marketers to demonstrate the power of email, generating nearly $100,000 from a single email to his list, in front of a live audience. In the past 27 years, he has personally helped thousands of clients in hundreds of different markets create and sell online courses, improve website conversions, and earn an excellent income even from small email lists.
