.: Welcome

Dear Valued Subscriber,

 

Welcome to another edition of the "i-Net Marketing Success" newsletter.

 

It seems like it was just yesterday that I wrote the last editorial.  Time seems to fly by!

 

During the last few days I've been debating on what topic to cover in this month's issue. I kept coming back to the subject of my last newsletter article on the importance of squeeze pages. If you missed last month's article click on this link to read it... "Squeeze Pages and List Building"

 

Since squeeze pages and list building go hand-in-hand, I felt it was only appropriate to talk about one of the most important parts of list building other than getting traffic to your squeeze page. 

 

Yes, traffic is important to build your list and squeeze pages (i.e. landing pages) are a great way to collect your subscriber's information, but where do you put that information so you can follow up with the people on your list?

 

You need a good auto responder!

 

Basically, all auto responders have one main purpose, to send out follow up emails to your list.  Many of the auto responders on the market today do a lot more than just send out scheduled emails.

 

I have a couple that I personally use.  Why do I need two?  Aren't all auto responders the same?  My answer is no!  One of the auto responders I have used since I became involved with internet marketing and I love it. 

 

It's quite simple to use and it's 99.9% reliable, meaning my emails go out when I schedule them and I have never had a down time with the company. 

 

But as my business grew I needed more features such as an automated affiliate program and a shopping cart.  My original one doesn't have those features.

 

If you're just beginning your internet business and you're not quite sure how to use your auto responder for follow up, this is what I suggest to start with...

7-Follow Up Emails

 

In my article below, I'll  cover some of the features and benefits of having your own auto responder and the three that I recommend.  These are without a doubt, the three most popular auto responders being used today. 

 

If you're in the market for an auto responder, take a look at each one and decide for yourself which one meets your needs.   You can't go wrong with any of the three that I recommend.  They all work great!

 

Until next time....
 

Mike

P.S. If your wondering which ones I use... one starts with and "A" and the other with a "1".

.:  What Can Super-Powered Auto Responders Do For Your Business!

  by Mike Van Bergen

The benefits of using this marketing tool are infinite. You can now automatically send personalized follow-up messages to your prospects without lifting a finger.

The golden rule: The Money's in the List!

The new generation "smart responders" offer a range of benefits, the bog-standard normal Auto Responders are starting to look dull and dusty.

At a glance, these are the benefits you can expect from the smart auto responders:

  • Personalized messages to UNLIMITED prospects
  • The ability to send UNLIMITED follow-ups
  • You can specify the day you want the follow-up to be sent
  • Follow-up tracking with real-time statistics
  • Many of the super-powered auto responders have incorporated other features such as affiliate programs, shopping carts and even merchant accounts that interact with your web pages.

When selling a product or service to your list, on the average, you need to contact your prospect up to 7 times before he or she decides to purchase from you. Being an Internet Marketer, you will know that this is a time consuming and tedious task if performed manually.

As an Internet Marketer, your time is the most precious commodity you have.

You need to devote as much time as possible to promote your online business, so why waste time contacting people when you can have this done automatically?

Your Smart Responder will work for you 24 hours a day, automatically following-up with all of your prospects with personalized messages.

"Wait a minute, did I hear you say "personalized messages"?

That's right!  To prove just how smart these Smart Auto Responders are, they will automatically extract the prospects name and email address, and will use this information in the follow-up message!

My own personal experience has shown that if you personalize an email message, the prospect is TWICE AS LIKELY to buy from you. It's completely true.

I could ramble on for hours talking about the benefits these smart responders offer. But the truth is you'll never know just how handy they are until you try one yourself.

There are hundreds of ways you can put your Smart Auto Responder to work for you, not just for use with Internet Marketing.

Why not try the following....

Lecturer - To give a set of structured assignments over a period of time when students are joining at any time of the year (as often occurs with open or distance learning).

Teacher - To remind students to do their homework. Give out new assignments.

Doctor - As a way to ensure people give up smoking, or remind patients to take their medication.

Building Maintenance Contractor - To remind public or realtor clients of things that need to be done around a home from time to time - to prod them into remembering you for any business that emerges

In fact, there are literally thousands of ways you can put your Smart Responder to work for you. You are only limited by your own imagination!

Here are three smart auto responders that I personally recommend.

 

Two of these have a free 30-day trial and one has a free version that you can use for as long as you want.

.:  Do Your Potential Customers Forget About You?

by Tom Kulzer

   

    Your web business probably gets product inquiries from potential customers around the globe.  Inquiries come via e-mail and your web site, and you try to send  information to each hot prospect as quickly as you can.

 

You know that you can drastically increase the likelihood of making a sale by satisfying each person's need for information quickly! 

 

But, after you've delivered that first bit of information to your prospect, do you send him any further information?

 

If you are like most Internet marketers, you don't.  When you don't follow that initial message with additional information later on, you let a valuable prospect slip from your grasp!

 

This is a potential customer who may have been very interested in your products, but who lost your contact information, or was too busy to make a  purchase when your first message reached him.

 

Often, a prospect will purposely put off making a purchase, to see if you find him important enough to follow up with later. When he doesn't receive a follow up message from you, he will.... Click here to read more!
