| There
is no doubt about it, the newest generation of autoresponders can increase sales for any
business online... These slick
autoresponders can follow up with your prospects and customers via email at pre-programmed
intervals with any message you want. And they will even personalize every message!
If I had to rank the importance of this technology in my business, it would rank in the
top five, right along with my website and my opt-in list.
Unfortunately most online businesses are not even using follow up autoresponders. And of
the small percentage that do, nearly all of them are not using them correctly.
This tutorial will teach you how to use follow up autoresponders in your business, and do
it better than anyone else in your field. Once you implement the strategy you are about to
learn, you are GUARANTEED to increase your sales.
Just promise me you won't share this valuable
information with any non-Make A Living Online members!
OK, I mentioned that the few marketers who use follow up autoresponders are using them all
wrong. And here's why... If you've ever read a report about follow up you probably were
told that prospects need to see your message up to seven times before they purchase. And
while that is true, getting them to purchase should NOT be the focus
of your autoresponder series. And this seems to be what nearly every marketer is missing
the boat on.
They are so focused on getting the sale they overlook the REAL power in this technology.
I've tested and tested over the last year and believe me when I tell you, if you focus on
the following goals when setting up your follow up autoresponders, you will be amazed at
the results.
When using follow up autoresponders, your goals should be
set in this order...
1. Form relationships.
2. Generate questions so recipients email you back.
3. Help people by providing useful information and links to help at your website.
4. Show off your great support and professional marketing skills.
5. Offer special deals on your best products and services.
If you focus on those objectives, the end result WILL be exactly what you're after in the
first place...
Lots of return website visitors.
And oh yeah, plenty of sales you would otherwise never have seen.
Now that you know the real secret behind using this tool to increase sales, I'd like to
reveal EXACTLY how I do it by sharing my actual autoresponder series with you. While I
can't invite you to copy my actual messages, I welcome you to "model" your own
messages after mine. The messages can be tweaked to fit into any website promoting any
product or service.
The series below is sent to everyone who requests my free ebook called "A Beginners
Guide to Starting a High Income Business on the Internet." It is a free book I offer
at my websites and through other venues online. Along with the book I currently offer a
lifetime subscription to my BizWeb eGazette and a free month of business web hosting.
As you go through each of the messages below, notice how each one is written around the
five goals mentioned earlier. Also notice how I use the personalization feature in both
the subject and the message body. This gets recipients to notice and open the messages.
Jim's Autoresponder series for all new prospects who have
downloaded "A Beginners Guide to Starting a High Business on the Internet."

That's it! The result of more than a year of testing this technology. It's quite a selling
tool and can be used in ANY industry. And while it can be a bit time-consuming to set it
all up, once you do it is fully automated. It just keeps the leads coming and coming.
I highly recommend that you set something like this at your site soon,
and sample the power of this strategy yourself. Try the great follow up autoresponder service
I use. It's available free here.
Oh yeah, and one more important thing. Your autoresponder will only increase sales if you
get people signed up to it! The best way I've found to do this is to offer a solid FREE
ebook about your particular business. I do that using a popup at
my sites and it works very well.
If you have any question, well you know. I'm always available here to help my members succeed online.
