Auto-Responder Tips And How To Choose The Right One
If you are an internet marketer, then using an auto-responder is probably second nature to you. Properly configured, It will help you to better create relationships with potential customers in all ranges of the buying stage.
Auto-responders also have more than one use. They are sometimes used to manage contacts. They are sometimes used for blasting and managing emails. In addition, they make building and storing multiple lists and email sequences a breeze because they remove all the annoying actions of manually doing it.
There are basically 2 types of auto-responders:
• Auto-responders that you pay for monthly
This is the type that you don’t have to your own server. Someone new to this may find this route easier. You will also find a monthly subscription fee associated with the service.
The subscription based auto-responder has its drawbacks too. You might have to pay more per month as your number of contacts grows. With the monthly service, you might be on the same IP address as other subscribers. Because of spam rules, your emails, may not always reach their intended contact. Ultimately, buying a one-time server based auto-responder can save you money over using the subscription type.
• Server based auto-responders
There are more positives than negatives with this kind of auto-responder. Starting out, there are no restrictions on the amount of contacts that you can build. Also, if you acquire a dedicated IP address, you can save yourself from getting blocked from email providers by spammers and on shared IP address. And, you will have absolute control of your lists with this type, unlike the subscription based.
More options exist with this type including the option to set how many emails blast out per minute. Sending out too many emails at one time can draw a flag or even get your IP address blocked.
Choosing the right auto-responder will ultimately save you money, time, and energy. Choose carefully and great rewards will come from this powerful tool.
