You Need An Autoresponder
Almost every Internet Marketer agrees that a good way to make money on the Internet is to have an email list. If you have a list of names from people who have given you permission to email them, you can market to them when-ever you have an offer you think they would be interested in.
Trying to manage an email list by sending out individual emails would be an impossible task, taking more hours than you would have in a day. An Autoresponder handles your email for you. It will save all the email addresses you have gathered from giving away free reports and ebooks. Then when you have a new offer, either your own or an affiliate product, you can send it to them, and some of them will be interested in buying it from you.
The best Autoresponder that I have found is Aweber–although there are many more online. But, just as we said about websites and hosting, do not try to go with a free one. For the same reason as anything else that is free, they could take the site down at anytime. You would perhaps lose your list, and you would have no recourse–you are not paying for it.
You can check out Aweber by clicking my affiliate link:
Or you can try it free right from here–just go to the right of this blog and sign up for a test drive.
Once you have your Autoresponder account, you can begin to gather email addresses and continue to build your list through giving away free reports and ebooks, or through ad-swaps, solo ads, and several other ways to begin email marketing. For now, get your Autoresponder account, read the information and watch the tutorials they will give you to get started.
We will talk more in future blog posts about email marketing and list building.
