When I sign up to help make a launch or giveaway successful — in whatever small way that may be — I have a reasonable expectation of only receiving news and updates about that event. Or, at most, notification of a future JV with that same individual.

What I don't expect, nor want, is to be pitched every new product on the market. Maybe joint venture opportunities for them, but even then, don't you think, as a supposed insider, I'd know about those from their creators? Certainly by the time it comes to being a purchaser for the next big thing, those on a JV list are going to know about it already.

Why segment your lists if you're going to send the same damn thing to all of them?! Near as I can tell, the answer is because that way if someone unsubscribes from one, you still have them on five others. (Aweber and several other autoresponders will let you unsubscribe from all at once, but it's a list-owner option that not everyone leaves checked.)

I could go on and on, but I think you get the picture. My humble plea, to all you "JV" and affiliate list owners, is... Please keep these lists clean, by which I mean on-topic, informative, and respectful, not salesy. We're ostensibly partners, right? (Yeah, I know...)

Seriously, this is the system I use for my salespages and affiliate / joint venture (JV) partner management. I've written previously about it on this very blog, and I'm bringing it up again now because the long-awaited new version is here!

I'm really excited about this. Among the many user requests that have been obliged, the one that most strikes my fancy as a developer is the improved add-on integration. I'll definitely be writing some of those. Stay tuned.

If you've been hemming and hawing over RAP, procrastinate no longer. For the next 8 days only, it's on sale at its previous version price before understandably going up to reflect all the new goodies. Be sure to click on the orange frog before the buy button to save fifty bucks ($50)! You'll see it reflected on the PayPal checkout page.

This thing really does it all. You don't need a separate

• affiliate program

• download protection script
• one time offer (OTO) generator
• split testing software
• conversion tracker
• etc..

because it's all included in one easy-to-use system with an intuitive administration interface to manage all your products or free offers in one place.

Finally, the forums and support are excellent. The community of ravenous users that's formed around Rapid Action Profits is just that, a community. We're all hooked! You will be too. Act now.
