Autoresponders

Autoresponders are a superb tool that you definitely need for your online success. Via autoresponders, you can run newsletters, ezines, emailed classes, seminars, information retrieval and more...you can even send digital products automatically upon receiving payment!

I myself run several emailed seminars based upon autoresponders, as well as deliver paid-for eBay products in that fashion.

How are autoresponders used in an online business? Well, have you ever seen places where you could submit your email address for free tips, or sign up for future sale notifications, or join a mailing list? Those are some of the most popular auto-responder usages.

Briefly put, autoresponders allow you to stay in long-term contact with potential future customers. NOTE - you should always use a double-optin autoresponder (ie, people have to receive and click on a confirmation link) so malicious folk don't sign up others to receive something they do not desire.

• Unlimited AutoResponder Campaigns, Messages and Contacts
