Generating Leads With an Autoresponder
But did you know that all autoresponders start out without a list? The list doesn’t exist until your autoresponder mailing list starts filling up with names and email addresses!
The easiest and fastest way to build up an email list is to give things away for free. Some marketers will tell you that this is a waste of time. If you already have a list of one hundred thousand people that you can market to, then it probably is. But for those who do not already have a mailing list, this is the way to go to build that list.
On your website or blog give away an ezine, free reports, free ebooks, a free e-course, or anything else that you can think of. But in order for people to receive that freebie they have to agree to receive email from you every so often in the future. This is the opt-in part. The person gets a freebie and you receive their name and email address along with permission to email them in the future.
This is also where you use an auto-responder such as Aweber
Autoresponders are one of the most important marketing tools that you can have if you are doing online business. Using your preferred software it is set up to automatically respond to your new subscriber. It can tell them where to access their free report or let them know about new articles on your website. Autoresponders can ensure each customer email is acknowledged in a timely manner. You decide.
Also the freebie that you give away should also be used to promote your products or services. Even if it just has affiliate links for products or services that are related to the topic of the freebie, it is a way to generate extra revenue. Then, when you send another email in the future, you can again promote your products or services. But don’t abuse these email privileges. Don’t over solicit and be sure to include valuable information in the email as well, or you will have people dropping off of your autoresponder mailing list like flies!
With an autoresponder you are sending information to someone who is interest in hearing more from you. These are potential future customers. Put it all in automatic mode with the use of an autoresponder. Aweber
