Get More Response Out Of Your Autoresponder

An autoresponder is a tool that should not be overlooked in your Internet marketing efforts. While many individuals use an autoresponder or at least have an account in their possession they are often a tool that is thought of as being too much trouble for the effort. If you have experienced less than ideal results from your efforts with your autoresponder perhaps you’re going about it the wrong way. There is a reason why individuals say that the money is in the list. Having an autoresponder set up and collecting email addresses means money in the bank if you go about it the right way.

The first thing that you need to do is to choose the proper autoresponder company. There certainly are a lot of options that are available out there but some of them contain some hidden pitfalls. For example if you’re just starting out with a business and want to try out a free autoresponder company you may be sorry when it comes time to move to a more robust system. The reason that this is the case is that your subscribers will need to reopt in to the new system. Unfortunately many of them will not take the time to do so and you will lose a large portion of your subscriber base and your efforts.

You also need to make sure that you are contacting these individuals in the right way. Be careful not to send out a sales letter too early in the series. Although there is nothing wrong with mentioning your product even from the first autoresponder you should be working more on building a relationship with them. You can do so with an introductory letter and by providing them with solid information for free with every email that you send. Once they get used to getting emails from you they will be very forgiving and often willing to purchase once you send out a sales letter.

The most important part of getting a lot out of your autoresponder series is testing. This is the case with all areas of marketing if you aren’t testing then you aren’t improving. A reputable autoresponder company will give you the ability to split test messages. As long as you track the results you can continue to split test until you can improve your results many times over.

Classified Ads – Make Them Work For You

Classified ads are still a very popular and powerful form of smallbusiness advertising. Many people browse through them daily to see if anything catches their eye. They are a lowcost simple and effective way of reaching a large target audience. If you are going to use this form of advertising though you must make every word count.

Your headline must grab the reader’s attention at once. Often it can be in the form of a question such as: Would you like to earn 70K a year working parttime from home? An effective type of question is something like this: Who else wants to become financially independent and quit their job? Strangely enough a negative headline can be very effective: Don’t sign up to Network Marketing! Read our free report first!

Whatever you do involve the reader. They don’t want to know about what you are doing they want you to tell them what they can do.

Secondly you should make your product or service sound as useful or interesting as you possibly can in the small space available. But you should take care never to say anything that is either not true or exaggerated. It is important to retain your credibility if the reader is to become your customer in the future.

Words like “free” are excellent for grabbing the attention and if you are making some kind of free offer you will be more likely to get readers following up your ad. Highlighted or capitalized words are effective but only if used sparingly. Too many of them will more likely put the reader off. It must also be remembered that many platforms for classified ads prohibit the overuse of capitals and exclamation marks.

Use a spell checker but remember that spell checkers do not pick up all mistakes so check it carefully yourself as well. A badly spelled ad makes you look sloppy and inefficient which is certainly not what you are trying to convey.

Finally make sure that your ad communicates with the reader and makes it clear what benefits they can gain from taking up your ad. Also make it easy for them to contact you or to access your products and services. If you follow these steps then your ad will have done its job.
