Did you know that you can set up email marketing systems, quickly and easily? And did you also know that if you don’t have one going, almost from day 1, that you have lost a bundle? It’s true. You’re totally missing the boat.
So, how do you build one?
First, you need to get an autoresponder service. There are several to choose from, including AWeber, iContact, Get Response, Mail Chimp, and many others. Find one that has great deliverability because if the service doesn’t have that, nobody sees your messages, and it’s going to be a waste of your time.
After selecting your service, the next piece in the email marketing systems puzzle is creating a squeeze page. This HTML page is nothing more than a head line, three to five bullet points, and a web form to collect people’s names and addresses. Once that’s complete, you upload it to a hosting service, which will be your next consideration.
Like autoresponders, there are many hosting services on the Web. You should be able to pay around $10 a month and get a very reliable service. But beware of very low-cost services. They may not have the power you’ll need to run a successful business online. Find a service that’s been around a while, one that doesn’t charge a fortune every month, and one that is reliable with up time of 99% or greater.
After your squeeze page is uploaded, you drive traffic to it, people opt in and you’re building your list. For some free traffic methods, try blog commenting, video marketing, or even podcasting. Those are three free methods that can really boost your results, too. With these methods, you’re helping the people in your niche to like you, and they’ll be more apt to join your list.
Yet, you can’t have email marketing systems that work without a follow-up series. Write several emails (at least four) and put them into your follow-up sequence at your autoresponder. These messages should be informational at first, just to get the people on that list to bond with you. Give them interesting information they may not know about your niche, and perhaps, in a P. S. at the end, offer a product that either solves or gives further information on the issue. Or, send information and then, every few messages, a sales message.
That’s all you have to do! Once you have that all set up and in motion, people will be signing up for your list and buying from you 24/7. There’s no doubt that email marketing systems are the bomb!
