Each and every morning I listen to a motivational call. With all of the craziness going on, it’s a nice way to start off my day on a positive note. It makes all the difference when putting the day’s events into perspective. Here is an example…
My car battery died on Monday (you’ll hear about it on the call) and instead of cursing out the world and brining more bad JuJu into my day, I kept, calm, cool, collected.
Did I mention, the very same call I listen to daily, I have been asked to speak on tomorrow? How cool is that?
Jump on tomorrow, May 23rd and listen to me speak on being paralyzed by perfection. You’ll hear how taking action has helped me generate a healthy income online with my imperfections and all!
Thursday, May 23rd at 9am PST / 12noon EST

Okay… so what’s a booty call email? I mean, you are an adult so I don’t have to explain the booty call part BUT I will explain the email part. You’ve been rippin’ and runnin’ all day, your phone has been ringing off the hook, you’ve barely had a bite to eat and you walk in the house at 10:00pm and slap yourself on the forehead because you realized that you didn’t get that email out to your list. And that promo HAS to be out by the morning! What do you do? You whip up some quick copy and send that email during booty call hours because that’s just what needs to happen! Just so you know… I’m literally Chuckling as I write this.
The word on the street is that those times deliver the best open rates.
So back to topic of this blog. An article I read online last year said that sending late night emails (also known as booty call hours) is a NO, NO because it’s unprofessional and your prospects will think, “Why are they emailing me so late?”
BUT, I actually want to challenge that notion (you know I’m a little unconventional at times). The reason being that, depending on your audience, they may not be online during the day. They may be surfing the web at night. And let’s be real for a second, 99.9% of us have smart phones and we are checking email every 5 minutes. Check out this video below. While it may not be an email case study, it’s still a VERY good indication that my audience is UP and ACTIVE online during the wee hours of the night. Would they probably be checking email too? You bet ya!
NOW here is a case study from my good friend (and hair stylist) Tammy Golden of Tame Salon in Los Angeles. Funny thing is while I was already writing this blog post, in pops her email at 10:45pm. It couldn’t have been more perfect! I asked her if I could share and she said yes, and she replied that she had already booked 4 appointments in a matter of hours!
Here is the email she sent:
So here is my challenge to you: TEST!
Send one good ole’ “booty call” email. Go on and post a social update a few hours later than you usually do. Just see if your audience responds. And if they don’t, you can keep doing what you are doing. But you just never know until you try!
Comment below with your thoughts and share this article on your social networks. I’m sure you friends will get a kick out of the title itself. I can’t wait to hear what you think…and more importantly, the results from your “booty call” test email.

I just wanted to thank Dave for sharing this incredible story, about a man who found a brother… (who he didn’t know that he had) all by following this simple blogging system that I use and offer my clients. You can get it here... after you watch this incredible story now:
I’m leaving town this week for an internet marketing convention so I wanted to get this post up before things get too crazy. I’d like to offer a a complimentary 30 minute strategy coaching call (to 3 people) when I get back into town. I will allow you can pick my brain, get your marketing questions answered and I’ll help you get clear ways to get started with your business or market the one you currently have.
On the call we will:
Discuss your product/service/idea
Get clear on your demographic, niche market
Consult on your options for products to sell
Talk about low-cost tools you can start using right away to profit
Put together a strategy on the most effective way to promote online
In order to receive the complimentary call you will need to join my blogging system since that will be one of the tools that will be essential to growing your vision.
The blogging system includes a pre made blog (ready to go live the second you get it), 24/7 training videos (on 3 private sites), lead capture pages, a proven sales funnel to close business and lots, lots more. Watch this video to get the full scope.
I am only opening this up to 3 people (and I have thousands on my list). The offer is closed at 5pm PST (and TRUST me) it will not last until then. So if you are ready to truly make 2013 better than 2012… don’t miss this chance. Once it’s gone, it’s GONE!
