My Journey, What Is An Auto Responder?
This is Rose Kline back to go on with my journey. Ok, You have your mindset and a plan in place. Now you want to think about making a list. You need an auto responder. What is an auto responder? Well it’s where you house the list you are building, so you can send to them to let them get to know you and get some trust in you. It is very important to build a relationship with your list so they trust you and know you are a real person. That way they usually stay with you, and can become a buyer.
An auto responder will house your list for you and send out the emails you want your list to receive. It will keep track of your subscribes, your unsubscribed, your opens, your unopened, just to name a few. Without having an auto responder, is like having the best orchestra and not having a performance hall to put them in, so no one would ever hear them play. Compare that as to making a list but no place to keep them or use that list, or like having a Cadillac with no engine. Without getting an auto responder, they would do you no good.
There are many auto responders out there. When I started building my list, my mentor told us that Aweber was the grand dad of all auto responders and in his thoughts the best auto responder out there. Now along with being the best one, the price is also higher. Auto responders have different extras that go along with them. Some auto responders are known for having a good delivery rate. I use Aweber, who is running a special where you pay $1.00 for the first month as a trial. I also use Imnica and Ebizac. My biggest list as of now is with Aweber. There are many more like get response, I Contact, traffic wave, NPN (or New Plan Network) and more. Another important fact when getting an auto responder is; Do Not use a free auto responder. When a free auto responder has issues they can just fold up and you lose that list you worked so hard to build. Also using a free auto responder does not look professional.
With all that being said look at all the auto responders and you choose what looks to be the one you’re looking for.
The auto responder that works for me or someone else may not be what you’re looking for.
Remember, nothing will get finished if you do not put action into play!
