What is an Autoresponder?

The simple way to explain an Autoresponder is to think of it as program that automatically responds to email sent to it.

Our Autoresponders not only automatically answers emails sent but it remembers who sent the email and follows up with them whenever you tell it to… automatically.

Effective sales people know that the fortune is in the follow-up. This is why good sales people spend so much time following up on past clients, making repeat sales calls, sending postcard reminders, sending out brochures to the same people, going through their list of contacts to see who they haven’t talked to in a while.

The Autoresponder takes care of following up with your online prospects automatically.

Why do you need an Autoresponder?

Experts tell us that it takes an average of 7 different contacts to close a sale.

If you are not following up with your prospects on a regular basis, you are losing sales!

As your list of prospects grows, it becomes more and more difficult and time consuming to figure out when you last spoke with which prospect and which information you send them.

In our global economy, business is being conducted 24 hours a day. It would be impossible for you to personally follow up 24 hours a day.

Your Autoresponder can manage all of your prospects, remember when it sent your last sales letter, what that letter was about, and it can do all of this 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!

Imagine being able to completely automate your sales letters.

Imagine being able to build, manage, and profit from your own online contact list.

Imagine being able to broadcast special offers or announcements.

Imagine being able to remotely update your sales letters any time.

Imagine being able to instantly test ad copy or special offers.

With Autoresponders, you can do all of this and more.

This system runs 24 hours a day… 7 days a week… whether you are at the office, sleeping, having lunch, or enjoying some free time with your family. Your Autoresponder never sleeps!

Because you are able to generate more leads and more efficiently manage your follow up, you will have more time to develop and test effective ad copy, spend time with family or friends, or even develop new product lines and marketing approaches!

Autoresponders are wonderful! They can be used for a variety of things, but there are several ways that autoresponders should not be used. Using autoresponders in improper ways will make things a bit more difficult for other people, and it could make things really bad for you!

Having one autoresponder respond to another autoresponder creates chaos, and in some cases, it can overload servers. This happens when you sign up for something, using your autoresponder email address. You sign up, and a message is sent to someone else’s autoresponder, which responds to your autoresponder, which responds to that autoresponder – and this continues on and on until it is manually stopped and straightened out.

Some people use their autoresponder address on purpose when they sign up for discussion lists. In effect, this causes an their autoresponder message to be sent to the entire list, or to one person on the list, each time a person sends a real message to the discussion list. Needless to say, discussion list members and owners frown on this practice, and the autoresponder owner gets banned.

Avoid these problems and use your autoresponder in ways that it was meant to be used. Do not use the autoresponder irresponsibly! Not only will you create problems for others, but you may find that you get reported for spam!
