Autoresponders - Why even bother?

You can not have one without the ying yang, a top without a bottom or a business without an autoresponder! Here is why.

Most people who visit a new website have no intention of making a purchase. Most of the time, I'm just surfing the Internet looking for some specific information, and happen to land on your website. There is a small percentage of people who are impulse buyers and buy something from your site on their first visit. The vast majority, however, will not. They click on your site and leave you scratching your head wondering why the counter of visitors continues to increase, but your number of sales is not increasing or may even be declining.

Experience supported by tons of statistical data show that the perspective needs of different exposure to products or services, the sooner they make the decision to make a purchase. To get the most out of your sales and maximize sales opportunities for visitors who visit your site without making a purchase, you will need a way to follow up with them several times. A mailing list is the best way to do it because you can show your product to market itself as many times as you like.

To successfully manage a mailing list subscriber, it is essential that you have a reliable autoresponder service that sequential "offers the mail" and you know how to use it. An autoresponder is a great resource for your site, because it can handle all the emails you receive. Think of your autoresponder as a 24/7 sales staff that do not get sick, take a vacation or to take the kids to the doctor. It 's always there to answer your emails 24 hours a day - 7 days a week.

Your autoresponder will follow with their customers on the basis of shipments planned set and continually add new subscribers to the database through the registration form that you have to squeeze on your blogs and websites. As you add new subscribers, your autoresponder can immediately and automatically send information and offers on their products and services.

There are many other uses for autoresponders as well. Along with sending personalized emails to your customers, you can also send samples of your free information products, any kind of useful information and special product offers. You can send anything you want from your autoresponder, and send it when you want. You can also send messages to individual subscribers or to broadcast messages to everyone on your list of subscribers at the same time.

You may have a sequential autoresponder system that is both locally hosted or a remote hosting service. There was a time when its local host (a script on your server) was very popular because he had total control and only once the purchase price of the script and no monthly service fees.

Lately, with the Can-Spam compliance and ISPs that make it increasingly difficult to get through the mail and email boxes ever going to spam long before it reaches the recipient, it would be well before signing only a remotely hosted service.

That said, the automated response system is one of the most important decisions you will make your business. Do not take this decision lightly. Remember that your autoresponder will serve as the "home" to your list of customers for years to come. The customer list is your only irreplaceable resource on the Internet. You can lose all your sites at night and be up and running again in a few days, but have lost your customer list and ended. You will start all over again!

Do some research before selecting the autoresponder service. A big name and the highest monthly price does not necessarily mean better user interface, or service deliverability. There are some autoresponder services that are existing and emerging as good or better than the big two. Do a search on Google and spend some time researching. You want a service that will be with you for years to come at a price that will not drain your bank account. Be sure to note how their monthly charges increase as the size of your customer list grows. What is a reasonable price today could be a bucket full when you have 20,000 customers on your list.
