Autoresponder - A Powerful Marketing Tool

Autoresponder - a Powerful Marketing Tool How Aweber got paid for 6 month without any service delivered! What is an autoresponder?A frequent procedure in internet business marketing is setting up a lead capture page and adding the lead to an autoresponder automatically or manually. The purpose is to follow-up with your website visitors to catch their attention over a longer period of time. You can provide them with helpful information about your program,product or service helping them establish their presence on the net as an internet business entrepreneur. With a good autoresponder you can setup a campaign with unlimited followup-letters.You pay a monthly fee and you´re ready to go.Now every time a customer visits your website and signs up for your newsletter providing his/her name and emailaddress he/she is added to the autoresponder´s system. At first they tend to receive a confirmation message to reassure that they want to receive your newsletter.This might sound a bit complicated to a newcomer but it isn´tonce you get started. It saves you a heck of time and you can work on other marketing strategies while your new subscriber receives a follow-up messageevery few days. Pipssite ownersAs a pipssite owner you will permanently hear: the power is in the list!And the biggest challenge to a newbie is to get a list and learn how to work it. Autoresponders have straight rules concerning spam. They have to. Spamming is ugly. Or would you want to receive mails from a company selling tennis rackets and actually you are playing golf? It´s useless! There are various autoresponders available on the net. Stone recommends Getresponse and has it set up together with your puchase of a pipssite, you get a whole year of follow-ups together with your homepage for free. Have a look here: http://pluginprofitsite.com/main-15745 And there´s Aweber, EmailAces, IntelliContact and RobotReply etc. I did some research on autoresponders and came across this website where 5 autoresponders are compared on - email deliverability- customer service- technology features See for yourself at: http://autoresponders.com Just take a look before you decide to open an account anywhere. I should have done that. It would have saved me lots of trouble, time and stress. To make a long story short: After 3 weeks at Aweber they terminated my account without warning -overnight. I had paid my membership for 6 months in advance and they refuse to refund any of it.Upon signing up they guaranteed a refund within 4 weeks without hassel if the customer (me) wasn´t satisfied with the service. I asked for refund and the answer was amazing: We can´t give refunds on terminated accounts.Just imagine I had purchased for a whole year. To the pipssiteowners among you: I added the opt-in, highly targeted empowerism leads that we get for free every month to a campaign at aweber.(80) For 3 weeks all fine. Then all of a sudden I got a spam complaint and another one. At last I had 5. I tried to communicate with the helpdesk, telling them about my leads and that I had no idea why they hit the spam button. I never got any information about which customers were involved, the next thing I know - I got a message: Your account has been terminated due to violation of our rules. We can´t give refunds on terminated accounts. blablabla... If you read the information on http://autoresponders.com/aweber carefully you get a pretty good idea about Aweber´s business ethics which seem to be originating in greed instead of trustworthy entrepreneurship. Some headlines from the website above: a- how Aweber steals traffic from competitors b- Aweber support c- Aweber blocking and deliverability issues I hope I´ve at least motivated a few of youto take a closer look at which autoresponder to use. Needless to say I strongly recommend NOT to use Aweber. Success to everybody who deserves it! Ingrid Grzeskowiak www.Go4yourMoney.com www.pluginprofitsite.com/main-15745
