Does Your Business Really Need AutoResponders?

[Anne-Marie Ronsen]

As an online marketer, you realize that building and managing a targeted list of prospects for your offer is the life-blood of your business. By adding AutoResponders to your online marketing strategy, you will be able to develop a loyal following of contacts that you can market to over and over again.

Here are some keys to making sure you get the most out of your AutoResponder campaigns:

1. Be sure to add subscription forms to your websites. This helps you capture valuable information from site visitors that otherwise might leave your site without taking the desired action.
   
   
2. Offer something of value to your subscribers in exchange for them giving you their contact information. This can be a free report, a free download, a coupon, or discount.
   
   
3. Backup your subscriber lists regularly. The last thing you need is to lose your list of prospects! This list is your gold mine. Protect it.
   
   
4. Personalize your messages by inserting your prospects' name, email, and other relevant information you have collected from them.
   
   
5. Target your email marketing list even further by collecting more detailed information such as their phone number, address, etc. Add custom fields to your subscription forms to fine-tune your targeting even further.
   
   
6. Focus your advertising on directing prospects to your capture pages or your website that has a subscription form. By focusing on lead generation, you can then follow up with your prospect lists over and over again. This will dramatically increase your success rate.
   
   
7. Manage your prospects responsibly. By sending relevant offers and building credibility with your subscribers, you can reasonably expect your subscribers to stay with you longer. Some of my sales have come from subscribers that had been receiving my messages for more than two years!

By following these guidelines, you can help assure yourself of success when using AutoResponders.

At i-AutoResponder.com, we take that role very seriously to help your message get through to your audience.

Professionalism and integrity on your part will take care of the rest of the equation.

Thank you for sharing and as Terri says you have to build relationships first.

You shared some great tips about list building, however I have to say this. You didn't saying anything about developing a relationship with the people that subscribe to your list. Relationships is the key to success because if they don't know, like and trust you they won't buy from you. Anyway you shared good information on list building and email marketing.
