The Email AutoResponder

Using An Autoresponder To Automate Your Affiliate Marketing Program      Before you can run a successful affiliate marketing program, you absolutely have to have a good autoresponder c…. ampaign in place. Autoresponders are management systems that allow you to preschedule emails to go out to your subscribers on a regular basis. Every email you set up in the autoresponder is sent to all of the subscribers on your list over a scheduled period of time that you determine. The beauty of this is, that it can do it while you sleep. Once you set up your campaign, it goes on autopilot from there on out.

The steps to take in setting up your campaign are:

Sign up with an autoresponder company such as Aweber. Most have free trial periods.Create a unique list for each niche your promoting.Create your unique emails. Each one should have value to it, so your subscribers look forward to the next email. If you need help with this, look into PLR (Private Licencing Rights) content, or outsourcing to companies like eLance.Load your autoresponder with the solo emails you created or had created.Your campaign starts with each new subscriber that signs up to your list.

Other options include:

Offering your subscribers special deals on products.Adding blog posts and articles of value to your solo emails list. Occasionally, sending out short-term or seasonal promos in a broadcast message.Spread your emails out over a period of 3 to 4 days in the beginning, and then slow it down to about once a week. The first week is important for establishing your value to the reader. Subscribers are going to unsubscribe over time and there is nothing you can do about this. It’s just part of the deal, but, the more value you offer with each email, the longer they may stay. Most people will not stay on your list forever, so as the saying goes, “make hay while the sun is shining”.

Regularly review your autoresponders to make sure all of your information going out is up-to-date. Also be sure to insert any new information or promotions. Your autoresponder is your silent salesperson.
