Hello {FIRSTNAME}, and a happy {WEEKDAY} to you!
This is the eleventh lesson on-line eCourse
from Swiftnet Marketing.
In the last lesson I showed you some neat tricks to use pay per
click advertising with and a hot
tool to easily find niche keywords to use with PPC.
In this lesson we will talk about email marketing.
This is a very important part of any online business for 3 major
reasons.
1.) You can automate your business. This will free you up for
more important things you can concentrate on, and allow for immediate
satisfaction for your customers to receive instant response via emails.
2.) You can increase your sales by up to or over 50% by simply
following
up with auto responding emails.
3.) You can build huge opt-in lists to have a large customer base
that
wants to hear from you.
When I first started out I tried to do everything myself by writing
some
scripts and using a free program called reply-o-matic and procmail on
my Linux servers.
Basically, it will search the subject line of a email and then
automatically reply with a email to the sender.
Another free way of doing this is using Microsoft Outlook. You set
up a filter to
scan your incoming emails subject lines then automatically reply to the
the sender.
The fact is that these techniques are OK when you are dealing with a
small number of
customers or to reply to winners of a Ebay auctions, but for industrial
strength email marketing you need more powerful tools to do this job for
you.
Currently, I use auto
response plus. This came with a free install and I
can manage it from anywhere in the world as long as I can get to a web
browser. This software will also automatically create web forms you can
use on your website to let visitors opt into your lists.
You must have a Linux server to install this on and most hosting
companies
will be hosting your web servers on Linux anyway's.
If you do not have a Linux hosting server and prefer a Microsoft
based
product another great one I tried is Mailloop.
It comes with very powerful
features and also have very easy to learn video tutorials to walk you
through using it.
Whatever tool you use email marketing should be at the top of your
list in any adventure in online business.
This reaches the end of this series of a overview of several
different areas and tips on making money online, but this should not be
the end of your continued education of Internet Marketing.
I will be sending you more tips and advanced tricks that you can use
in your online business in the near future, and thanks again for your
subscription to this newsletter. I hope I have helped you in some ways
to make it easier for you to achieve success online.
Sincerely,
