Checking how buyers found you

[bykimbo]

I thought I'd try to build up a library of standard text snippets for people to use if they wish. First one: some text you can add to your emails to try to identify where buyers are coming from. You could just send this out in a confirmation of purchase note straightaway, or add it to whichever part of the process suits.

You can change it if you want, it's copyright free and no strings attached.

Very good idea; strengthens communication, and is a relatively easy way to obtain important marketing information.

Excellent idea, Kimbo, and, as burgy said, good marketing. I may just start using this one myself.

Best wishes for many sales to all,
