If you’re
planning to purchase an automatic email responder service or software
program – that’s good news! That means you have customers
or plan to have customers and you want to organize your client
base and provide an easy means to answering emails. It’s
a good thing you are reading this article – because you
can save yourself time and money. Don’t make the same mistakes
I made – and the same mistakes a lot of others have made
in purchasing the wrong autoresponder service. Fortunately you
can learn from my experiences and choose the correct email autoresponder
for your business. With so many choices, it can be overwhelming
– so I will break it down by individual autoresponder programs.
The
ones I will expand on are several of the most popular autoresponder
programs, services and software out today.
Before
I delve into the topic further – I need to offer one important
piece of advice. Don’t use a free autoresponder service.
Yes it is a direct statement and you may want to go against my
advice and try one for yourself. You can - go ahead. If it works
out for you then that is good. But, through my personal trials,
in using so many of the “best” free autoresponder
programs, my sincere and serious advice is to avoid doing them
at all costs. First, the features offered are very limited. And,
what happened to me every single time I signed up with a free
autoresponder service is that I ended up with a lot of junk mail.
I kept receiving more spam from the autoresponder company and
I found it very difficult to “unsubscribe” and cancel
my free accounts. The other downfall, if that one isn’t
bad enough – is that the autoresponder company usually places
their own ads and promos in your emails. So instead of being able
to promote yourself, your business and products to the utmost
extent– you are promoting theirs.
Let’s
say you are an eBay seller – and would like to completely
automate the process of selling. If you are sick and tired of
typing in “Thank You” notes and sending links to download
products, then look no further. My
Digital Dispatch is the way to go. It works specifically with
PayPal payments. So, whether you are selling items on eBay or
on a website and use PayPal as your main payment processor –
you could save yourself time and money by using this software
program. It’s easy to use, setup and maintain. It stores
all of your client’s contact information, as well as the
date of the sale and all of the details. To purchase it, there
is only a one-time fee of $67.00. The price is unbeatable, considering
most of the automatic email responder services out there today
charge monthly fees and only allow limited number of messages.
With
this software you can create an Unlimited number of messages to
send out. It also has a wonderful affiliate program which has
a 50% payout. The affiliate link appears at the bottom of every
automatic email that is sent out. If you don’t know what
an affiliate program is, basically – it is when a company
offers to pay you for any traffic that you deliver to their website
which results in a purchase. So if someone clicks on the link
in the automatic email you sent them, and they decide to sign
up with My Digital
Dispatch, you will receive about $33.00. This software is
perfect for eBay sellers and PayPal merchants – but if you
are more interested in creating subscriptions, newsletters, enzines,
etc. then you will need a more advanced program.
If at
all possible, my recommendation is to find a program that you
can purchase through a one-time flat fee. Programs with monthly
subscriptions always end up being more expensive in the long-run.
They may have excellent features and services that can’t
be beat, but it can be very costly. Then when you find an autoresponder
program that you like better, it is extremely difficult to switch
everything over and move your client information to the new program.
So, you may need to spend a little in the beginning, but if you
are serious about your business and you want to start it out right,
then it is more than worth the investment.
So,
if you have an online business and you need a powerful feature-rich
autoresponder program that allows you to: manage clients, create
subscriber lists, send text and html newsletters and more –
then Send Studio is the software program to use. The cost is a
one-time flat fee of $239.00 and worth every penny. The installation
is FREE and Send Studio is jam-packed with features which are
easy-to-use, yet more advanced than any other service that I have
tried. It also offers you the ability to re-brand the software
through a simple template. Then you can allow your clients to
login and create their own email marketing campaigns on their
own domains. Just “create a new user” so your client
can run his or her marketing campaign, rather than needing to
purchase the software for each person. With a single website license
purchase, you are allowed 5 different users with access.
There
are several other Top-of-the-Line autoresponder programs I recommend,
but they charge per-month. They are also feature-rich and easy
to operate.
