My 200th Email Response at effective web ministry notes

My 200th Email Response

filed under Response by rob on 27Aug06 @ 9:58 pm EST

Tonight I responded to my 200th request by email through various Campus Crusade websites running Arc Assist at their response mechanism.

Here was a portion of the email I received:

Domain: godsolovestheworld.com
Name: **********
Residence: Turkey
Gender: Male
Tell us about your spiritual journey: I just prayed to receive Christ as my Savior for the first time

It’s simply amazing to me. Would you consider becoming an email volunteer also?

I signed up! I was going to be in you guys “group”, but Dan thought Pat in Orlanda meant “Pat Flynn”, whoever that helpful soul is…guess what, it’s not your wife, and it’s not a she. I’m just getting myself straightened out.

That explains why your wife-non-wife doesn’t seem to know me from Adam. But, the non-wife person seems very helpful and responsive none-the-less!

I’m all for those tips as to how to get people to answer back! Asking questions…all that. Now I know why you were blogging about how to get people to “respond by using questions” and such!

So…I’ll have to go back and see if there’s more good tips there.

Pat, your non-wife, sent some to his group today to help us get on board.

LOL!

Yes, It is SO fun to see those names and places. Reminds me of my missionary friends who try and try to “get a hook” and have trouble even though, “the fields are white”.

These are clear seekers…I don’t understand why so few respond when they took the time to fill out the form.

Any enlightenment or research we could do on that?

I wonder what the email looks like in their title…how the subject and “from” line reads, etc.

And I wish I could talk to the developer of “ARC” on a few usability issues. Lovin’ it, though!

I had saved this post in bloglines wondering about it. After discipling a new Christian in India for a month through my blog…I’m so excited about the potenial and pray it bears much fruit for all!
