This simple, sleek process will ensure the highest levels of email deliverability through a streamlined opt-in process (often called the quad optin). This process, for the first time, truly confirms the real identity of a subscriber to eliminate spam complaints.

This is simply hilarious. Thanks for the laugh Jeff. You need to go into acting. You didn\’t crack a smile.

I have found a loophole in the quadruple opt-in system.
EVIL TWINS!!!
Just wanted to warn you before you fell flat on your face with this common problem.
February 27th, 2009 at 4:54 pm
Woody,
Naturally we carefully researched the twin/DNA loophole. I myself have twins so I experimented on them. Turns out, there is a different cytosine base in one of the nucleotide strands.
February 27th, 2009 at 7:22 pm
Jeff, I just wanted to again reiterate what a pleasure it was to interview you. A brilliant technique. I’m glad you pointed out the nucleotide strands issue you worked out with the potential problem arising with twins. But what about Octomom? I’ll see you in San Diego for another interview so put your thinking cap on. -VegasJimmy

You guys were really fun. I love the video lol.. Sad, I don’t even talk to any of you at UG 5. So what’s this next event in San Diego that everyone been talking about? Mass Control? - @Albertsteven

My goodness, I am embarrassed — for at least 90 seconds guys, I thought you were serious. You are not serious? Are you?
Very Funny

I LOVE the quadruple opt-in! It is working like a charm. You guys are very cutting edge. Keep up the great work. Might we be hearing about a Quintuple Opt-In in the future? I cannot wait to see what’s next.
March 2nd, 2009 at 4:52 pm
This is an important step for our industry. I am thrilled that you all are bold enough to share this valuable information.
I do think it can/should be taken further as stopping at the fourth level still leaves all sorts of wiggle room for some of those ultra-devious folks out there. The doppelganger (as mentioned above)is a potential real issue. What about a situation like Superman and Bizzaro?
You guys Rock!

I’m going to start using this quadruple opt-in process on my sites.
March 3rd, 2009 at 2:08 am
Too Funny!
I’m thinking there were a few cocktails consumed prior to the making of this video.
Thank You

Jeff, Just recently joined your list, nice to see what you look like - thanks for a great laugh!
March 3rd, 2009 at 6:30 am
Will the medical part be covered under the new National Healthcare Plan? @johnfhunt
March 3rd, 2009 at 7:45 am
Sue - Glad you joined my list but I question your eyesight.
Jeff
March 3rd, 2009 at 7:46 am
Good idea on getting med exams covered by a national health plan. In a way, quad optin should be part of a stimulus plan because it will give so many people jobs.
March 3rd, 2009 at 9:48 am
sounds like an april’s fool all over, hahaha
March 3rd, 2009 at 10:13 am
This industry is fabulous! Poking fun at ourselves in the extreme. You guys are talented “straight men”…. have you thought of taking your act on the road ?
PS- Did you know that Grandma would find reading the Security Code VEY difficult, thus…. Arghhhhhhhhh— NO Optin?
March 3rd, 2009 at 10:29 am
Hi Jeff and Jimmy,
OOPs This is already so Old School News Guys…Sorry but…
We now have what is called the “Quint-Essential Opt-in” process very simple and Very, very, painless…But it add two additional medical procedures which are included in the opt-in…The Urinalysis and the Breathalyzer test just in case Grandma is smokin’ and drinkin’ something she shouldn’t be aye aye boys??? Great video…Jim and Jeff…Thanks
March 3rd, 2009 at 10:30 am
Jeff,
It\’s a good idea, but we\’ve been using it for a year now…)
March 3rd, 2009 at 1:16 pm
This is nothing new.
I’ve been using this quadruple system for two years already!
I recenty polled my ENTIRE list to see if they still liked the idea.
All three of them said “Yes!”, although one of them unsubscribed because they don’t like polls.
That’s OK. I don’t want anybody on my list who doesn’t want to be there. (And I still have the other two subscribers)
March 3rd, 2009 at 6:58 pm
Terry wisely realizes that it’s not the quantity of the list but the deliverability that really matters along with the relationship you build with the list.
We anticipate being able to do some quick medical tests on the DNA since we have it anyway to inform our subscribers, in a helpful way, about any medical conditions they might have (warts, halitosis, STDs, etc) and in so doing we would further create a close bond with them.
Naturally, this also creates an opportunity to sell them wart removal cream, mouthwash, etc through an affiliate link to further monetize our lists.

You mean: all of this time, energy, paper, ink, and a stamp in order to give a free report? Let me know when your postal fees are $5,000 a month if you still like the method
March 4th, 2009 at 8:06 am
… and if the postcard gets lost in the mail?! I would ask her for her Twitter handle so I could tweet her to let her know the postcard was on its way, and request her to tweet back when she’s received it. Just in case.
March 4th, 2009 at 12:55 pm
My grandma signed up & is already well on her way to shredding up her abs.
She said the DNA test didn’t even leave a scab and grandpa is signing up tomorrow.
March 4th, 2009 at 12:58 pm
You guys are SO behind the curve.
My company is using the pentagonal system, whereby Jimmy’s grandmother would have to produce her first-born child for DNA testing, before getting our report on “7 Tips for Exploring the Benefits of Running an Online Porn Business from Your Rocking Chair.” (Very high demand item, BTW)
This fifth-step really seals the bond and only gets messy when the first-born has had an untimely accident.
I can’t believe you aren’t on to this already! You’re always sooo cutting edge.

PS… Loved the video!

What! No ebook or report on how to make a million with this?

March 5th, 2009 at 1:15 pm
No more reports left, budget is busted on postage fees
March 5th, 2009 at 1:42 pm
To truly responsibly implement this program, grandma should be required to have medical certification signed by a doctor verifying that she does not suffer from any condition that would endanger her health should she pursue your Rock-Hard Abs program. That way you’ll avoid expensive lawsuits at the same time as you improve your e-mail deliverability! Hey, it’s a win-win!
April 1st, 2009 at 3:00 pm
Hey someone mentioned the quintuple optin? The 5th step could be sending out a team of investigators to check the credentials of the notary to ensure his seal is real.
Would only add about a week to the process, of course unless the investigators get booked up.

Spam is now DEAD
April 8th, 2009 at 1:53 pm
That is friggin’ hilarious! I think you guys are great visionaries and should patent this before some ESP jacks your trade secrets.
BTW…How many drinks did you guys have before recording this? LOL
April 14th, 2009 at 1:05 am
Jeff and Jimmy, thanks so much for the comic relief. I have been so busy I needed a good laugh. (I own a network marketing consulting firm that addresses the issue of email deliverability with our corporate clients so I can relate.)
I actually was laughing out loud in front of my computer!
December 22nd, 2009 at 1:02 pm
Love the bkg music. Classic.
March 11th, 2010 at 6:08 pm
Jeff, you guys are killing me with this stuff. I laughed so hard I almost peed my pants. Keep the good (marketing strategies:LOL) coming. Thanks guys, Jan
March 11th, 2010 at 8:00 pm
That was truly a riot! Really fun guys…
